The lovely Lauren had a birthday this weekend!
We celebrated yesterday with some of her favorite foods
and presents (mainly a big wad of cash so
she can go shopping!). We decided shrimp scampi
is so delicious, we need to have it more often and
not just on her birthday each year!
The big kids are turning 25 years old this year!
I can't believe that! Time is flying!
The both get better looking each year, if
that is possible. Aren't they a gorgeous couple?
♥
Yep, those are great photos!
ReplyDeleteI thought so! ;)
DeleteBeautiful couple. So great that they live close by. Hmmm... my birthday is... tomorrow. May I have the same menu please? ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love that they live close...still come for dinner every week. So wonderful!
DeleteGreat shots indeed
ReplyDeleteWad of cash works at every feed
25 you say?
Geez I'm the old fart today
Wait Fox is here
Wheeww I'm in the clear lol
Fox saved you from that part.

She was a brilliant find by Taylor. I can still remember the first time he brought her by...'just a friend and classmate' in a business class in college. He brought her over to meet Nugget. :)
