To
Tampa, Florida!
...It's
Party Time!
make yourselves comfortable, and grab a lei and a pair of flip flops, as we want you to enjoy the warm tropical breeze. While mingling with the guest, you may notice some wild tropical animals, not to worry, we have professional trainers to handle and provide for your safety.
course!Hope you will joinon the dance floor later!
Oh, I see we have some first time guest, let me introduce just the two of us, I am Pamela and this is my hubby Dennis. So nice to meet you!
Just the two of us have been happily married for going on 28 years this June. We have three grown children, two of which are married and then our son who has a sweet girl friend. You can read more about it in my sidebar.
We are so blessed and tickled that our oldest son Kevin and Renee just had our second grand baby last week, her name is Arianna Corrine. Her big brother Ben is only 14 months old but loves to give his sister many kisses, which is so cute! However, he has also been caught dive bombing her with a stuffed animal (seems I remember something similar when his Daddy was a baby) hehe! Kevin is a Supervisor with a large Cable co., and Renee is an incredible SA
HM!
Terrence is going out with Jenny, a delightfully sweet and bright student at a private Christian University. He is a Meat Cutter with Publix and She is tackling finals this week with six classes!
Terry had two brand new kittens that are adorable and so entertaining and actually like to play with Jenny's Ferret that she brings over to visit every now and then from the dorms.
Our baby, Chrystal just married David and they will celebrate their 1st Anniversary on June 10th! They met at Oral Roberts University and married shortly after graduating. They both have been promoted to Manager of their respective restaurants, Chrystal at Mimi's Cafe, and David at AppleB's. They are currently house hunting and learning quickly the pitfalls of making an offer and negotiating.
As you can see our kids mean the world to us. We love meeting new people and appreciate life so very much as it has certainly been rocky at times but God has never given us more than we could ever handle. If anything, I feel I just appreciate everything so much more so and try really hard not to sweat the small stuff.
So go! Mingle have fun! I will catch up with you later as I am so eager to learn more about you too! *smile*
Feel up to a little Limbo? How low can you go! lol
I hear they are mixing up a mean Mai Tai over at the Tiki Hut, of course Dennis and I don't drink but we want our guest to enjoy themselves!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Grab a seat the Picture is just about to begin, featuring "The Photo Hunters"; today's theme is "SALTY". Well, let me tell you there is not many things I can think of that are saltier than the ocean. Which, by the way is my favorite place in the whole world! So for my guest of honor...The Photo Hunters...I present The Beach! A pretty girl, Chrystal, a little suspense, action and special effects! hehe! We enjoyed watching Chrystal and Bill parasail that day while my cousins were visiting from Oklahoma!
Photo Hunters is hosted by TNchick and if you would like to play click on the button on my sidebar.

Hey, if you are up to it, they are looking for players for a Volley Ball game on the beach!
Nothing like a beach sunset for atmosphere!
Nothing like a beach sunset for atmosphere!
Just the two of us are so glad you came!
I see some of you have been laughing at the comedian...lol He is funny!
Watch the hanky panky stuff, this party is being hosted by new gparents and Dennis frequently feels obligated to cover my eyes when he thinks I am being exposed to too much!
If you would like to join in on Karaoke, feel free to use one of the instruments, after all we all could use a good laugh! lol
Meet Padre, he is one of the professional trainers. He is keeping an eye on all the party animals! :)
We have Valet service that will gladly take you back to your beach condos!
There are oodles of bloggers you can visit through the Ultimate Blogging Party being hosted by Janice and Susan of 5 Minutes For Mom. So after you leave a comment hurry on over and party on! Thanks again to Susan and Janice, this was so much fun and next week I am looking forward to introducing a first time guest and blog about meeting them...so the fun continues!

What a great party, Pamela, especially the music. How did I know your party was going to be a tropical beach theme. You just really like to torture me, don't you? LOL

Girl, you sure know how to throw a party! Thanks for having me over. I had a blast. Congratulation on the new grandbaby!! Also your photo hunt picture is definitely SALTY :) I see you also have a really yummy roast beef recipe below. I'm exhausted from your party and must go rest now. Thanks for having me over.
I love how you used the digital letters to highlight the name of your blog throughout your post entry. That is a very cool effect and one I might have to borrow from you when I do my digital scrapbooking! Enjoy the party!
Jennifer
What a great party you are having Pamela! I love how you worked "Just the two of us" into your introduction - you're so clever!
I just knew you would have a spectacular party Pamela. I love all the pictures. What a fun time!!
Thanks so much.

=^.^=
Pamela...I'm so sorry I called you Linda! I know you're Pamela! Did I do it before? I'd like to just blame it on too much party-hoppin today but if I did it before..yikes!
Is my face red?
Actually, I sort of "met" both you and Linda at the same time...but that's still no excuse!
Anyway...I hope you know that I think you're one of a kind! I'm always blessed whenever I come here...especially the long-standing love you convey between you and your husband. A treasure!
I love looking at all the great pictures you and some of the other girls put up. So far this is turning into one awesome party.
I love a good party...I've joined this party...so please come by.
Makes me want to come to Tampa!! But in the wintertime. I don't do well with summer heat and humidity. You and Kristen win the prize for the hostesses with the mostest energy, I do believe!
Hi Pamela ~~ What a fun party post.
It all sounded great and so were the photos. I am way behind with my replies, but thanks for your comments. My brother Peter ans his son Marcus will be well on their way to Perth by now. I am glad Peter has company and help driving.
Take care my friend, Love, Merle.
WOW....that's quite a party! Saw you posted on my daughter Emmie's blog. I didn't quite get the party going on mine....2 babies and a teenager keeps me quite busy. Feel free to stop by my blog if you like. I will be back to see more of yours during "nap time" today! lol

For a moment there I thought I was back at home! Great party. You sure put a lot of work into it!

Just wanna say I miss you Pamela! Hope all is well..
Pamela, are you still blogging?
Since you participated last year, I’m stopping by to let you know that I’m hosting a 2nd Edition of my Holiday Cooking, Blogger Style recipe exchange!
I hope you can join me again this year on 5 October. And, would you mind helping me to spread the word by publishing a post about my holiday recipe exchange before next Friday? I’d sure appreciate it! I have the button in my most recent post.
Thanks so much!
Just checking in with you again.
I promise this isn’t one of those ‘check in with you and leave for several months’ kind of things. Yahoo is supposedly deleting the 360 blogging forum and I’m trying to get all my blogs off of there before they do. I’m here and will be blogging as soon as I get my stuff off of yahoo.
Hope you are doing well.

I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and
said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She

and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know
