What I Did on My Summer Vacation – Engagement Party
On July 30th, my parents threw The Boy and I a fabulous engagement party. It was the first formal opportunity that our families have had to meet since we’ve been together these two and a half years.
Everything was great. Everyone brought tasty food and the weather was beautiful. There was a slip and slide for the kids and a moonwalk. The kids think it was for them, but it was really for us immature grown-ups. We even almost wrecked it. You see, Dave, his friend Mike (in the wedding party), and I were all happily bouncing around inside. Then out of nowhere, Dave and Mike reverted back to little boys and began wrestling. I’m meeping and trying to hop out of the way, when all of a sudden, Mike hauls off and DROP KICKS Dave, and they both go flying off of the sides, toppling the over like so:

Please note my father yelling at me from outside of the moonwalk. ME!! At the same time, my brother runs over and pulls the plug, making it
deflate around us, convincing the boys that they broke it. Good times, good times…
We even had a celebrity in our midst. Our good friend Darren Brass of
Miami Ink fame came up Miami to celebrate. We were so happy to see him!

All in all, everyone had a fabulous time, which is really what it’s all about. Many thanks to everyone who spent the day with us and brought us food, gifts, and love. Special thanks go out to my parents, who went all out and hosted a fantabulous party. We love you!!
