Weekend Recap 800th post

Well it has been another busy weekend indeed!
Saturday I worked all day then we headed out to my DH's work party! Every year they throw this big party they call it Casino night. Below is Bill with the owner of the company. He is the one that has blessed us with Browns, Indians and Cavs tickets! Bill has good favor in the company with this man and the company so we are priveledged that way! This is the owner of the company and we love him!
I enjoyed most of the night visiting with mindy and Jennifer a few more people I usually chat with weren't there for some reason. None the less it was a great time!

Each person gets $3000.00 of play money to gamble with. Together that gives Bill and I $6000.00 . (A little more then years passed). They can play black jack, spin the wheel etc. Well Bill and I are not gamblers, even for play money;) So we along with a few other couples sat and enjoyed chatting and saving our money for the prizes!
It was fun watching people winning and loosing!
We had the best thickest steaks! So tender! mashed potatoes,corn green beans and salad and melt in your mouth rolls( they make there at the Bakery)
and many desserts...

Here is the prize table, there was many varieties of things to choose, They had a WII, ( that was the 1st thing to go, that lady had like $42,000 WOW!) a pool, tents, games, bedding, gift cards, CP passes, cookware, digital frames, photo phone etc! etc!
There was like 6 things I would have liked to have but I ended up getting The shop Vac. We always wanted one but never bought one, now we got one and Free! woohooo!

Sunday we celebrated Adams Birthday with just us, my parents came, Marilyn and Teri. MIL was unable to attend. It was small and sweet. I made him a 13 cake!




He got lotsa money! We will be getting him a guitar and amp soon, hopefully!!


Below are videos I made of the kids each taking their turn playing their instruments. They were each so proud to do it and neither wanted the other to steal the show so I had to make 2 videos! The 1st is Adam on Sax the 2nd is Jelena on clarinet

Sounds like a wonderful weekend. I think you need the week to recover from the weekend. :)

Isn't it amazing how fast they become teenagers? My Jason turned 14 this year and it freaks me out a bit! Love the 13 cake! You are so creative. Looks like you had a good time with hubby and family!

What fun to have good food and prizes. Sounded like they lots of nice things to give away. Your husband works for a generous company.

The cake came out great. That's a nice family picture of all of you.
