As they had eaten a late lunch they weren’t keen on an early dinner so we just chilled at home for a few hours before deciding to venture out for dinner at Longhorn’s at Orange Lake.
This was busier than we have experienced before
With a 30 minute wait
That felt like 3000 minutes
How can a pager become an instrument of tedious torture?:angry:
When its handed to one child and the other thinks he should have it
And goes on
And on
And on
And some pushing and shoving occurs
And you are on high bar stools and the chances of someone coming off are quite high
And then Andy says he doesn’t feel so good
All going really well then.
We are finally buzzed and we have a server comedy moment :
“ do you want child’s menu” ( my sons are bigger than I am so who is she referring to ?)
“ no, wait, you have facial hair, of course not”
I do presume she means the boys and not me at this point !
I did mention it was himself's birthday and asked if they could sing to him (unfortunately they forgot- which is just as well as when they came out to sing to the table near us, Andy said, I do hope you havent arranged something like that for me ...
)
I had a lush strawberry daiquiri, the boys had cokes and Andy had a beer.
The lovely warm honey wheat bread soon arrived and was devoured so we had a second loaf as well.
I had a caesar salad - I don’t know, they just taste so much better over here.
Connor had a half rack of ribs, loaded potato (oh the horror, more sour cream !) and fries
Jamie had a chicken burger and fries
Andy had a full rack with mash and fries
I had the Filet with loaded potato - oh my , it was lush
It was a lovely meal. We were so stuffed we couldn’t manage dessert which was a shame.
Just short of $88 for the meal and drinks. We left $17 as a tip.
Feeling very full , we waddled back to the car and the short trip home – we sat out for a bit with a nightcap and agreed what we would do tomorrow.
This is key
We AGREED what we would do tomorrow
