The Visit

Yesterday we went to Violette's magic Cottage for dinner, where we met blogger friends Sioux and Raf from Mineral Wells Texas! Last year we met them in Vancouver for dinner on a stop over before their Alaskan Cruise.This year they decided to stay in Vancouver a few days before they leave for Alaska.
Nicci, and I in the back, Violette, Pepper and Sioux in the front! A quick photo op before the sun died down! We ate outside and it was so pleasant. All the planters in full bloom. Probably the last opportunity for dinner outdoors!
Marco in the back, Raf, Malcolm and Graham in front.
Malcolm filled in during Bryans absence,( he had to work, it's the busiest week of the year for his company) he was missed. Malcolm has the same hairy chest and brown hair, but damn he could have put some clothes on!. It's possible Malcolm is a hermaphrodite, yeah he forgot his boxers. I think Marco may be giving him a noogie.....you know, it's a guy thing, they take their knuckles and twist it around on the guys head!! Either that or he's tackling him. I doubt that though. Marco just isn't the violent type!! teehee!!

Close up of the girls that just wanna have fun! An Artists delight!
Pepper couldn't resist taking a photo of the boys taking a photo or us!
Sioux really giggled when I put my chin on her head!! I adore this photo!
Graham shared his South African Amarula Birthday Liquor, which I added to my coffee as we munched on Nicci's scrumptious peanut butter chocolate cupcakes. Man were they yummy so was the Liquor!
Mother and daughter, I am so blessed to have her love and support.
We made the thai salad together the night before. I know it was always
my mothers dream to have a relationship like this with me!
Pepper loves and enjoys all my friends too!

Thank-you Violette and Graham for hosting this wonderful evening. It really was magical!
Great food, and friends, a few giggles, fun conversations, tunes from Raf, nice weather, joyful ambiance, the perfect evening in my estimation! Thanks Raf and Sioux for the sweet gifts!

What a fun group! I can hear the laughter from here! How wonderful that you can get together with Violette and Sioux and enjoy an evening of fun and friendship.

Malcolm must be a bit risque to show up for the party nude!! He must be trying to pick up chicks!!
