Eons ago when I worked for alliantgroup, LP, a bunch of us used to sit together during lunch. We didn't have a whole bunch of room to eat so one day we just sat by some of our cubicles. There weren't enough desks and chairs so some of us ate on the floor. It was like a carpet picnic!! But anyhow, we later deemed ourselves the Eat on the Floor Lunch Group, or EOTFLG. We have been through thick and thin; and we have remained friends over the years.
Anyhow, tonight, we were able to get together after a long hiatus. Jerry and Mitzi just returned from their work for International Justice Mission (IJM) in India. So, it was definitely time to get together and celebrate their homecoming. So, we all congregated at our house since that way we could just sit and talk without hassle. Originally, I was going to order pizza for everyone, but Jerry and Mitzi had tons of stuff to make tacos, so they were kind enough to bring it over.
As for Andrew, he was shy at first, but quickly warmed to everyone. He was really good the entire night. Even more, he didn't put up too much a fight when he had to go to bed with Daddy while our guests were still here. It took him a while longer to fall asleep, but not too bad considering. Thanks, Daddy!!
We talked and laughed and laughed and talked. Before we knew it, it was late and time for everyone to head out. We always have a great time together. It was so good to see everyone and get caught up. We don't get to see each other as much as we like, but when we do, it's just like old times. I miss all you guys!! Hopefully, it won't be too long before we all get together again!
