Pickle's Big Day!

Pickle had a birthday on Thursday, and I've been too busy to post about it. I am not a bad Mom...just a very, very busy one.

Other than having to go to school...I think she had a pretty fun day. She got to bring a couple of her girl friends along for a very fun dinner to her favorite place downtown, "Dick's Last Resort."

Now "Dick's" is not the kind of place everyone enjoys. The servers are rude, they throw menus at you, yell at you if you take too long to order, make you wear silly hats, do mean things to the customers (one boy, about 10 years old was also celebrating his birthday, and our server brought him what looked like a small birthday treat covered in whipped cream, complete with a lit candle, etc. He blew out the candle, took a bite and realized that the whip cream had been sprayed not on cake or ice cream, but on cole slaw, YUCK!) Patrons throw paper balls at each other, and have been known to start wars by walking by other tables and "bombing" them with literally hundreds of paper towel balls. Yep, not for everyone....BUT if you are turning 17, you LOVE this kind of stuff.

And Pickle and her friends did!





After a very fun, and silly dinner, we came home to open presents and enjoy a little cake.



Happy (belated) birthday Pickle! We love you!
