One of these days I'm going to give myself a heartattack


Hello Girls
Things got so hectic I never told my superbowl party story and looking back it's kinda funny

So I joined facebook a couple months ago and a friend of mine from high school was found.
We have been chatting and then a couple days before the superbowl she invited me over for her party.
Yikes!
But I was excited and gave a enthusiastic YES!
Ladies, I'm sure we all look a little different than we did in high school.....nuf said
(It's been about 25 years for me)

Then the hubs advised he would be heading out with the boys for brews & snacks sunday
WHAT?

Ok, I'm not panicking. He wouldn't know anyone anyway so thats ok but a house full of people I've never met and the one person I know is the hostess....OMG

OK so I'm getting ready and I can feel the sweat on my neck but I ignore it and head out with a bottle of wine. Thats a pretty safe hostess gift, right?
On my way I stop at McDons for a cheeseburger to settle my nerves.
I get to her neighborhood and it's adorable.
It's an old fashioned town with craftsman style houses like the one above with the driveways behind the house. She live across from the park sorta behind the town square, lovely.

I walk up to the door and all these boys come racing out of the house and the last one says "go on in" but I'm nervous so I tap on the door then open and there are 100 eyes on me! (ok maybe it was 30 but it felt like a 100) and I'm looking at everyone and NO ONE LOOKS FAMILIAR! OMG

I have the address written down and I checked the house number when I came in so I'm in the right place then someone comes forward and says "I'm so glad you made it" and as we move toward each other I can see it's L and she looks beautiful.
I'm so happy and relieved and she steers me to the kitchen table and we talk and eat for hours.
Everyone was already tucked in and watching the game when I arrived so I got to hear the full scoop. :)
She has 2 beautiful children and her husband is so nice!
and they have 8 Chihuahua's!
they are so cute they look like gizmo from gremlins :)
I totally wanted to take one home.

I did have one (that I know of) moment when we were talking about friends from high school and I mentioned AC and that I couldn't believe she slept with my friends husband.
OOps
Insert foot in mouth!
AC & L are friends, eek.
Sorry L!

Other than that I think the night went pretty well and I had a super fun time.
All that fussing for nothing. When will I learn?

Have a great day!

WOW, that would be hard, especially to go on your own! Good for you!!! Seriously though, EIGHT chihuahua's? I would be so afraid I would STEP on one! That is really fun though! Love the picture of that house too!
