love me a party

any chance the Likkels (that's us) have an opportunity to have a party, we do it.

we like people AND people on our turf is a bonus.

maybe it's because we lived in tiny little spaces for most of our married life.

maybe it's just cuz we like people on our turf.

since i mentioned that twice, that MUST be the case.

we like parties.

this year, in true form, we celebrated our annual Independence Day Bash.

i love his smile.

this is one of my oldest friends. (older as in many years since she's FAR younger than me). Joy www.homanaz.blogspot.com was one of my very first friends when i moved to Lynden in 1985. since she's now living in Arizona (boo), spending the Fourth with her (and her beautiful kids!) was a treat!

looking forward to spending a long weekend with her, in Scottsdale, come October. more to come.

love you Joyful.
