A Festive Feast

Just as we did for Daddy Dave’s birthday, the family gathered at The Olive Garden for Mommy Sandy’s birthday. Some would say we lack variety and imagination, but this is our favorite family-friendly restaurant. From the moment we walked in, heads turned. The twins were wearing matching outfits, red baseball caps and big smiles. Just as they often do, the hostess seated us at a center table and the boys easily charmed the other patrons seated all around us. Since we’ve been on a strict diet for the last couple of months, the food on this evening tasted especially good to us. Sandy prefers low-key affairs, so she passed on the singing servers and birthday cake this year. Instead, she opened a large stack of birthday cards from family and friends. It was fun!
