Family Time
Posted in Family on 07/23/2006 12:08 pm by enjanerdHad the family over yesterday for some nice, quantity family time. My parents had better things to do next week, so they moved my birthday. It was pretty cool though. The siblings, parents, grandma, cousin+husband, and my sis’s roommie+kid all showed up. Lenny and Stephanie arrived bearing gifts from their trip to Hawaii. There was lots of lasagna (hehe… there was secret tofu in it. Thanks, Sonny!), veggies, and fruit salad. Best part: it was potluck style, so I mostly just provided a location and snacks. And to wrap up the meal, Ian made a fantastic lemon cake. So much better than store lemon cake. Everyone hung out for a bit, gossiped, and watched some baseball before heading out.
Sonny stuck around to go swimming and then we went over to Springfield mall to be hoodlums. Started out at the gigantic Target with the shopping cart escalator, then headed over to AE to try some pants on to get free movie passes. Again, super low rise jeans… Not my style. I just don’t think they fit right on me (that, and zippers should be longer than my thumb). But that’s just my opinion.
Anyway, that’s about it for today. Time to eat more leftovers!
