More Movin' and Shakin' in Clear Lake Shores: Debbie S's Party

It was to be a major birthday for Debbie S, and her best bud, Karen, planned a major party in celebration. The theme: "Her Favorite Things." In need of a creative project, apparently, I jumped on it, writing a Debbie-skewed parody of the Sound of Music song, with Karen's help, a song that we printed out and then performed for Debbie's benefit. Debbie loved it, and it was all great fun.

Karen and Ray hosted a great party, anchored by Karen's delicious grits and grillades.

Some of the "girls."

The ladies sing (and some sway) . . .

and Debbie reacts.

She liked it!

From tears to laughter, both good for the soul.

Susan's Bday, and a Tardy Celebration of Bryce's

Tina

We met Tommy and Tina a year or so after we had moved to Baytown, so we have known one another for over twenty years, and it is through them that we have met so many Clear Lake Shores folks. They (T and T) are wonderful, and, seeing that I have few photo posts of her, I am creating a post of her alone.

At Debbie A's house, celebrating her birthday late, as she had barely gotten home from Austin on her actual birthday -- she had been there to greet her new grandson. And this CLS group does not let a birthday go unmarked.

Cheers, Tina, and thanks for being such a good friend, as well as for easing our transition into the hood with your thoughtfulness. Goes for Tommy, too.
