Happy Father's/Birth Day!
Today is Father's Day.
Today is also my birthday.
My family is so awesome! And my friends, Mona, Tina, MaryBeth, & Heather conspired together with my husband to have a surprise party for me tonight! And honestly, I WAS surprised! I have blown so many things over the years and they pulled it off! Cressalyn nearly blew it today but I totally missed it!
So, today was my husband's 19th Father's Day. It was my 38th birthday.
How cool is that?

Spaghetti Sauce
Tonight we had a spaghetti dinner to raise funds for youth and kids camp. We held it at the fire hall in Harrisville. Even though our turnout was less than we had prepared for, the income was very helpful!
Nora did a fantastic job as our cook! Thank you so much for giving of your time and talents! You are a blessing!

After we got everything cleaned up and returned home we proceeded to place the leftovers in the freezer for future use. We were lacking containers for the sauce so we used Ziplock bags. They were transported home with no problem so Cressalyn took them downstairs to the basement to the large upright freezer. Then there was a loud cry from the basement. She needed immediate help.
When I got to the freezer...you guessed it. One of the Ziplock bags decided to pop open. Spaghetti sauce was ALL OVER the freezer and the items in it! UGH! What a mess!
So what is the lesson that was learned tonight? When you have a dinner for a large group of people, anticipate leftovers and be prepared with STURDY containers!
