Daniel's early bday bash at Olive Garden (again)

Daniel loves fettuchine alfredo... if it has alfredo sauce, he's all over it. He also loves going to Olive Garden for his annual birthday dinner. So this is where the family went this afternoon for a pre birthday celebration; Daniel's actual birthday is Tuesday.

Scott was acting like an idiot. He has this thing for sugar packets, which, frankly, drives me up a tree. He's being his typical teenage self: a pain in the butt. Scott also talks a blue streak, and so the nice entree he ordered was barely touched and he ended up taking most of it home.

Marc got a whole pizza for himself! It wasn't big like what one would get from, say, Dominoes, but it was big enough. Marc was jazzed that he even got a spatula to serve it with!

Jeff is another creature of habit. At Olive Garen, he always orders the lasagna. He didn't finish his dinner either. And as sure as I'm sitting here, Jeff will want to go to Spaghetti Warehouse for his birthday. Fortunately, his birthday isn't til the end of March.

I was observing the scene, not only at the table where I sat, but at a couple of nearby tables as well. There was this one woman who came in with her family. She had on a red and white striped sweater with the University of Oklahoma logo on it. Her purse also had the OU logo. Ya think maybe that she attended OU at some point? Naaaah! LOL...

We all managed to stuff ourselves, then Mom and I went home while Jeff went with everyone else to Dean and Tori's. I thought I might go out later, so I left the garage door open (i ended up not going anywhere and forgot the garage door was still open). When Jeff and Daniel came back later, they startled a cat who had seemingly made his/herself at home in the back seat of my non-operational Beretta.

Speaking of cats, here's that pic of Columbus (aka Dum-Dum) at 6 months of age. Click on the pic to see the fullsize one hosted at photobucket.com.











That's all from where I sit...
