Spaghetti Thursday #20

OH, MY! I has been tooooo long since our last spaghetti Thursday! The summer was just busy. Then in the fall Amy had soccer practice every Thursday afternoon. Although we did have spaghetti between May and December, it wasn't always on a Thursday, and if it was it was just us!

Thursday, December 27, 2012

Attendance: William, Laurie, Mary, Amy, Mandy, Vincent, Maria, Jill, Jackson, and Kathryn

Menu: Dipping bread, sausage and pepperoni sauce with penne pasta, salad, garlic bread, and WINE!

We had a great time visiting and afterwards we went to the decorated dancing lights house in Pin Oak. Since it was after Christmas the wait time was very short! The kids always love seeing this house.

It was a great night! Here is Amy's summary of the night...
"My first spaghetti Thursday. Evening highlights: father/daughter slap fight, nerf gun battle, Amy H's blue cocktail dress, alpo taco's, good food, better company. Thanks for letting me participate."

We started the evening off with Mary getting her birthday presents from Uncle Darrell, Dixie and Jackson. There has been a joke for quite some time that Darrell was going to give her some dog food tacos. AND HE REALLY DID!
