Had another "grown up" moment

So we had some friends over for drinks and a campfire Saturday night to celebrate Sarah's birthday.  We had a raucous good time.  Highlights from the night include me punching Sam for being a smart-aleck and other hilarity.  I learned a lot that night; how to carve a fire log, that the fire log looks a lot like a burning cross, that Sam can't take a punch like Adam can, and that I've grown up and have grown up friends.

 Carolina Chocolate Drops show on Wednesday with Sarah.  They're even better than you think they'd be.

 Marjie and Nathan came up to share in the festivities and to wear Sarah's new glasses!

 Had to get in on the action.  Consensus is they look pretty cool with my hat, but I totally look like a supervillian when I wear them without the hat.

 Nathan and I did some chainsawin' out at Pat's while the girls went for a ride.
 Tractorin'
 Margie's blurry here (sorry Margie) but I like the movement of the background with the crispness of Sarah and the Murph.

 Like I said, cool trick, but not for every occasion.

 So I went out to the fire circle Sunday morning to clean up after the party only to find the fire circle clean, the chairs folded and put away, and all the bottles sorted and boxed neatly, ready for the recycling.
 The bourbon wasn't gone, and everyone got up happy and ready to go... all grown up now, I guess.
 Or maybe not.
 I think this one really works.  At the antique mall trying to figure out if I'm a super hero or super villain.
New toy from Nathan and Margie.

Sorry we missed the birthday party!
Obviously a good time. Very cool sun glasses. Keith, about that first mask...I would say no. Nice post. Love you both. Mom

Great post! I'm not sure I can take a punch as well as you remember. Ian on the other hand can definitely take a punch better than he used to! He's getting tougher and I'm getting softer...
