NYE menu

Ok - so here is the un-official entree list for tonight (I want to hear no complaints)
Veggies/cheese trays
Kasia's famous meatballs
Southwestern chicken (just a fancy name for chicken breasts with melted cheese and sauteed onions/peppers atop)
(I'm still debating on the spaghetti - its a definite possibility)
garlic mashed potatoes
Potato salad
Chips, Tortilla chips, salsas
I realized that I have no sweets (OMG!!!!!!!!!) If anyone wants to bring anything sweet, just bring it, if not i'll have to stop by later for something, somewhere.

I hope its enough food for everyone. For all those that I won't have the pleasure of cooking for or seeing, I wish you a fantastic, Happy, Healthy, Prosperous New Year!!!!!!! Be safe - lookin forward to '08!!!!! Woo Woo :)

So this is Christmas.....

So Christmas came and went. All the hustle, bustle, holiday shopping, crazy parking lot drivers, all drawing to a close. Whew....another year survived! And now....a new year - seriously, crazy. Ah well...no use in complaining. I hope everyone had a fantabulous holiday season, and will join us for a New Year's get together. I am working out the meal plan as we speak (meatballs, some sort of chicken, salads, snacks, etc oh yea and the booze) Nothin new in my neck o the woods, hence the lack of posting - sorry y'all maybe i'll come up with something more creative soon. I've been in one of those states lately, you know kinda like Utah - not much goin on. I don't know where my camera is either, so I can't find any pics to post... which sux. But, I soon hope to find it before NYE. You know how we all like to get our drink on!
Perhaps i'll come to soon enough - I mean I have a couple days before '08 begins.
If there are any suggestions on what you'd like to snack on, lemme know before I begin my Martha Stewarting.
Later Gators!

Ohhh another Whiskey Night....

Ok so it's been a while....
But it's time for another story. Yay!!!
So it was Pam's first time to the good ole Whiskey - no longer a virgin WooWoo! We helped Auggie celebrate his 1 year anniversary - Congrats Auggie - keep those shots a flowin! I hope she had fun - I know I did :)
She was able to enjoy our local fine staples which included Main Street, Cafe 1923, and last but not least:

Hey Mikey - she likes it!!! :)

We had some drinks, some poured by:

and others poured by some sexy new bartendress in training haha

We shared some laughs, got some shirts and some tramp/nip stamps (that were applied with beer and not water as directions said - screw directions!), drank beers and mysterious ecto-cooleresque shots, and listened to live music. It was a good night :)
We tried taking a group photo...but as the night went on and the drinks kept coming...we missed a few peeps as seen:

As usual there were appearances of
and

Twas a good night - the night before turkey day. We welcome you all to future outings, and if you don't come...well... you'll just have to deal with the wrath of
and
Happy Turkey Day to all - and happy bargain hunting tomorrow!!!!

Jumpin Jehosophats Robin - time's a flyin by!

I can't believe its already Nov. 7th!!!
It's only 2(ish) weeks til Thanksgiving and 6 weeks or so til Christmas - crazy - and then - a New Year!!!!! Can you believe it???? I can not - what the hell - seriously - we gotta slow this down. I'm already 25 and I can't remember the last couple years, it's a blur, I was just in HS! Hell in the ancient world, I would be a goner - washed up, 300 years old, barren, unwanted, tossed away, dried up - you know - you get it - urghh save me from my thoughts :(
My point is, I don't really have a point. Wait, I think I did.... time is moving by way too quick. I see all these kids growing up, not realizing, i'm not getting younger myself. Maybe one day i'll be married to J-oyce (oops freudian slip) married like J-oyce hehe :)
Wouldn't it be fun if we got to a point in our lives, and then poof - we start going backwards? I mean I wouldn't wanna go all the way back, but it might be fun. Celebrating things backwards, for example receptions first then weddings, then the prep. Hmmm..... Perhaps if I calibrate a way into another dimension.....
Anywhoo... in the meantime....I get to look forward to thanksgiving and crazy shopping the day afterward :) Yay - i'm already studying my deals and the places where I could get the most bang for my buck. I'm one of those crazies and yes I like it :)
Then another wedding, then Christmas. Before Christmas, another party..... hang on to more details. Tryin to finalize a day when the hall is available, and going from there. Hold on tight til invites go out :)

Wedded Bliss....Part 1...

What? Today is the day? Shit Dawwwwg

But of course sweetie.... do you think I would look like this on any other occassion?

Enter Pam....I don't want to hear any of it!...sings "Apologize" to herself

It'll be ok cuz "We're going to the chapel and we're gonna get married...."

Say it ain't sooo.....

I guess it is soooo :(
Ok now.....really? Stop..... Consummate it later ;)

I'm not losing a girlfriend, i'm gaining a husband :-P

Well hello my dearest readers! So the day has come and gone and I am proud to announce that my wifey (only recognized in a few states - blasted!) has officially tied the knot with Michael! It is with mixed emotions I write this post....as I love those two wacky warblers (see Mike - I used a bird term). I am super excited that we've all finally gotten to that altar, but i'm sad that Joyce is no longer a fair maiden :( She's a MRS. now :( Sigh..... Happy thoughts....happy thoughts :)

The bride was stunning :), the groom....well.....he was umm.....hmmmm whats the word to use...... ahh yes handsome and glowing with excitement as he patiently watched as his fiance walked down that aisle to finally become his wife :) (see thought I was gonna say somethin dumb huh?) The ceremony itself was beautiful (I cried - damn all of you who had bets haha) And the reception....it goes without saying was off the hook!

I know i've said it countless times, but I love you guys! And Congratulations once again as you begin your married life together - Mr. & Mrs. Pupptran

Stay tuned for a recap as my next post will be another picture story haha.....
