Family Cook-out

Boy-Howdy! It was hot yesterday. We had our "Welcome Home Ronnie" Family cook-out yesterday and it was great. There was 26 people (I lost count at some point) in attendance. Brothers and sisters, their wives and husbands. Their children and their children. It gets confusing! A few family friends,and their kids. But the star attraction came in the form of Lucifer. Who is Lucifer ? None other than a 6 ft Rosy Boa. A snake for those not in the know. Seems like we have become the God-parents for him, and he needs a place to stay for a month. Foote, one of Ronnie's men, has block leave for a month and is making a trip to Florida and cannot take him with. Sooooooooooo! Being good God-parents, Ronnie and Amanda welcomed him. Amanda stated to Foote that if he got out, he would have a new belt to wear when he got home! LOL The crowd thinned out after his arrival. The kids in attendance loved it,. The Mommies of the crowd, not so much. I on the other hand petted him, and fussed over him so the kids wouldn't be scared, but I should have known the kids would be all right. I should have been worried about the parents. LOL All in all it was a great day. Thank you Miss Maggie and Miss Cindy for hanging with me. They are my buddies, and stuck with me through it all. Amanda and Ronnie were the perfect Host and Hostess with the most-est. Food was great! Everyone went home full, we hope and way to early. So until next time, I leave you with a "High-Ho Silver, Away!" No wait, wrong show. Ta Ta for Now!
