Dad and Grad Celebration

If you have read my blog or looked at my Facebook

you would certainly know where be Baldi's go to celebrate!

Last night we celebrated Mike's birthday AND

the Rafael's college graduation .

At Caramba's.

We did something a little different last night.

I called ahead and reserved the patio and it was

wonderful!  We had the WHOLE patio for our group

and you know what.........we NEEDED the whole patio.

It was nice to spread out and move around.

Here are some pictures of the evening:

Brian with our little precious angel.

Rafael and Jeremy with their sweet babies.

Mike and Brielle with Tony and Elsa.

Christiana, Jeremy and Eliana

Buddy and Bree, Paul and Rick, Katrina and Kathy

Nicole, Jenny, Makayla and Craig

This table was occupied by many of our neighbors

Gail and Burt with their daughter Debbie

Joe and Jan

and Berta, who is not my neighbor but a very long time friend.

And in the back table you can see Charlene and Brooke.

Brooke and Mia were good friends last night.

I heard that Mia was laughing with them. 

Mike with Brady and Brielle

Quilting friends

Linda, Carole, Jerry, Joanne

Steve and Mary

More Quilters

Bob, Ray, John

Charlene's husband (sorry....I can't remember your name!)

Sharon

There never seemed to be an empty seat at this table so

I never got to sit down and chat with my quilting friends.

Our dancing buddies Bob and Sue

It was lovely to see the Forst family.

Jen and Grandma Lee

Mike  and Grandma Lou

Lou, Grandpa Jack and Lori.

Ali and Haley and Bianca's chairs were empty when I took this photo.

Rick and Vic

Kris

Besides Mike and Brian, I think that Kris is the person

that I have know that longest in this group. 

Sue and I shared a margarita

And to end this lovely story I present Miss Mia with Christiana

Mia looks like she wants whoever is behind the camera.

I'm guessing it was daddy!

My heart never fails to fill with warm happiness

when sharing an evening with friends.

My family is truly blessed.
