This all started about a month or so ago when we went along with Karen to take Jake to the airport. Hope I didn't lose anyone there. We stopped at Dave & Busters for lunch and fun. While eating we started discussing black and tans. Much to our shame we can not pour these things to save our lives. Jake informed us that he could teach us and promised to once he got back. We promised we'd wait as Karen knew how to do it too.
Okay back to the present. So we decided Friday, spur of the moment, that we should get together and do that black and tan party. Yes I know time has gone by a bit, but hey life is hectic! Originally it was going to be maybe 5 people. We said what the heck let's do this in the afternoon and barbecue. The weather will be great. Good excuse to eat charred meat and drink beer.
I'm not exactly sure how it happened, but by the end of the day we'd had a total of something like 10 people. When we realized how many people were coming Jim and I had to laugh. How did the small black and tan party suddenly explode? Not that we minded, but we were just curious.
We had lots of fun though. Have learned how to pour black and tans. Thanks Jake! We also learned that the house can accommodate 10 people comfortably. Or should I say 10 and 1/2? Theo was there too. What's a party without my favorite brewer? Kaiser warmed up to everyone by the end of the gathering and was in heaven with all the pets he was getting. He even got a burger. Lucky dog! And was good with Theo, who by the way is walking now. Odie showed up as Theo was making his departure. Sorry Theo. And loved all the pets he got. Even the birds enjoyed it, as Jake likes birds and gave them lots of attention.
All in all a good time was had. What I really have to say is...
You like us! You really, really like us!
I'll ignore the fact that we were offering beer and food to bribe you to come over. =)
