I went out shopping for some clothes for my upcoming trip, came home feeling a bit under the weather, thought about bagging the weekly get-together-with-the-friends-for-Sunday-dinner, but decided I needed to eat - so I better go.... Here are some photos of the la petite soirée incroyable that I walked into. Merci à tous! (especially our followers KEB and Becky) I think you will all pick up on the theme of the party - - - sooooo much fun! Such great friends!
Kari - they even put a small centerpiece on the table with your photo and 'with us in spirit' message. They feel that they know you, can't wait for the day when they actually get a chance to meet you!
Okay - so this isn't French, but it's BELGIAN, which is keeping with the theme. Truth be told, they tried to get their hands on some Jupiler, but alas, Stella would have to do.
the french toast was mostly for the kids, it went really well with the french fries and mayo....
I am reminded of a previous post.....
Becky wearing her Tour de France shirt for the occasion - nice shirt, Beck! Allez le Tour!
There were so many other theme foods, but this is just a highlight of how awesome my friends are. They may not be riding their bikes with me for each and every mile, but they are there to toss oranges my way and throw a heck of a MARATHON party. We will do you proud!
