Even though there wasn't a Christmas Tree in sight, or any egg nog, or mistletoe, or really any remembrance left of the holiday season...this past Saturday was the Holiday Friends Dinner at the Luebbert's home :) We gathered together to eat a great dinner put on by Kelsey herself...fried chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy (well, I had to remake the gravy - ha!), corn, green beans, rolls, and an awesome salad - my favorite of the meal I have to say ;) The girls gathered around the table after dinner to visit and the guys disappeared downstairs - typical right. After about 30 to 45 minutes, Ryan made his way back upstairs and very sweetly asked (yep, I said Ryan, I didn't mistype) the girls to relocate our visiting to either the living room or to downstairs, so that the guys could strike up a game of poker at the table...the only place to play poker in the house according to Ryan. I did suggest them sitting indian style on the floor, but he didn't seem to keen on that idea :) It took a little bit for the guys to join Ryan while he sat at the table alone with all of the girls in the living room...after I hollered downstairs saying that the girls were going to take back over the table, it didn't take long for them to take up post with Ryan. We finished off the night with a trip to Cold Stone Creamery for some ice cream...yep it was probably 20-something degrees outside, and yes we did have brownies and cheesecake, but ice cream was the the topper to the night - it made up for not having Christmas decorations - ha! To be fair though, not everyone had an ice cream, but you can bet your sweet bottom that I did :)
