Not bad...
and our closeups!
Jack and June wanted to host a neighborhood party for all the adults SO, tonight- all 11 adults were at Jack and Junes and all the kids and two babysitters were at our house having pizza, watching a movie, and hanging out.Jack and June turned their computer room into the bar and it was amazing- 15 different drink choices, atleast!
June, the perfect host and bartender!
Brian, D, and Matt hang out in the "bar"
Then the surprise of the night- it was not just a regular dinner like we expected- instead a fun dinner party with a very special menu. We were each given a menu with 25 items on the left and 5 courses on the right. We had to pick 5 items for each course so by the end of the night, we would have all the food items. The catch- the menu is a riddle. You don't know what you are going to get. So, we all randomly filled in the blanks and waited for whatever was next.
The Millers
June and Mary take off to the kitchen to being plating our first course!
The Offenbacks
The Smiths
The Fultons
So, we headed to the table where the fun really began. There was nothing on the table but water and we didn't know what to expect. We all filled up our glasses and waited to see what came out on our plates ( you are about to see a bunch of pics you might not think are that funny but those that were there will love them and I think it tells the story of our super nice well).
So, the first course came and we didn't know what the hell we were getting into. We learned fast that there would be no napkins or silverware unless it was one of the menu items ( they were not all food items) and if we wanted to eat, we needed to be creative and just go with the flow. So, we followed Jacks lead and started eating.
Sarah and I both had "piano tuner" on our course which turned out to be a fondu stick. So, we poked our peas and onions ( string of pearls) and enjoyed!
Matt questioned his lemon custard ( coolers)
The napkins (clean sweep) were even added to with a special picture of Jack!
Bri tips the plate to get the whole chicken enchilada ( plywood) in!
Matt uses a chopstick ( two are better than one) to eat!
The piano tuner was the favorite utensil of the night
Nope, that's not a spoon. It's an AlkaSeltzer packet ( bubbly)
June eats her cheese ( mouse trap) with a knife ( surgeon's choice)
A toothpick ( slim pickins) is what Rich ate his pork and beans( IRS) with.
Staci had no utencils and tore off a piece of her styrophone plate and used it as a scooper.
The men!
The Women!
We gave Jack and June each a huge bottle of their favorite liquor as a kick off to summer!
Our favorite couple and the cornerstone of our neighborhood!
Our AMAZING neighborhood! The McGreggors, Mary Merriman, The Millers, The Offenbacks, The Smiths, and The Fultons!
Thanks Jack and June for an incredible night of laughter and fun! We love you!
