Finally!

Finally our unofficial party planner planned us another group get together! I was looking back at the calander and it looks like it was a year ago that we all got together. WAY too long. Normally we get a group of people together and find a restaurant to acend on and take over the joint. Sometimes its in Brenham, sometimes Houston, who knows where we will end up. This time, we were in Houston. We went to one of my very favorite places, The Carriage House Cafe. They have great food for great prices!!! There was at least 30 of us that made it out last night. We had a ball. Here are a few group shots of most of us:


















































Now, there was ALMOST a fiasco with this whole event. Evidently, the two people that were coordinating it, who happen to be MEN, weren't communicating very well. I know, shocker right? Two men NOT communicating?!?!?! Well, one had made the reservation for forty people at this place and the other had sent out all the emails explaining where, when, etc. Well, the night before the get together, it occurs to the guy that made the reservations, that perhaps the two of them were not speaking of the same restaurant! So, party planner number 1, was trying to decide, hmmm, what would be eaiser........calling FORTY people and telling them about NEW location or callling the place he had told everyone to go to and begging them for a reservation for forty people! He opted for calling the restaurant. Luckily, they made room for us, but needless to say, they were a little surprised. They had three other large groups there at the same time! Can you say a bit overwhelmed?!?!?! All in all however, they did a great job. The food as usual was fantastic and the company was even better. Here are a few candid shots for your amusement:

This is Gus. One of my favorite attorneys that I work with. He's a riot!

Heather and Alan. Alan has more electronic toys than I have EVER seen in my life! They are so cool too.

As you can see, most people have already left by now. We were the fun group and stayed WAY passed everyone else!!

Of course, maybe it was that we just offended everyone with our convesation and they had to leave!! hehehee

This here is Matt. One of our most favorite lickable people as evidenced by the tongue here! hehehee

hmmmm....I think we drove Matt crazy looks like. Oh, wait, you can't drive him where he was already! Matt is one of our favorite Paragods, oh, my bad, I mean, Paramedics. No, wait, I'm sorry, thats not right either, its Matt is one of our most favorite EMT-P!!!!! (he looks like he could save your life huh?? Well, I've heard he's pretty good with mouth to mouth!)

Me and Momma T. The dh had just said something to us before he snapped the pic, so we both flipped him off. Of course you can only see ME doing it. Figures. :-)

Vikki, our most favorite ex-chopper chicks! She used to fly around in a helicopter all day. Man, i wish I had that job! That would ROCK!

Tina, Heather and Matt. Part of the fun table. Nevermind what's on Momma's shirt. Can dress her up, you just cant take her out!!! hehehee Actually, its the flash from the camera. Her shirt was shiney.

After we ran everyone else off, the "fun" crowd of us went over to Sam's Boat for drinks. We finally had to call it a night since we are a bunch of old foggies!! J/K. Actually, poor Matt had to work at 6a the next morning! And good on him, I am happy to report, I have spoken to him today, and he made it to work with no problems. Good little paramedic!!! :)

all in all....I think a good time was had by all. I cant wait for our party planner to plan another one. And of course, everyone is invited!!!!!!
