September Birthdays

Dave and I both celebrate our birthdays in September, and this year, (Sept 16th), Josh brought the boys over to Tucanos Brazilian Restaurant at The Gateway Shopping Center, downtown.  Dave and I have enjoyed many a fine meal there with out of town business associates and we always have a good meal and good times.  This was the first visit for Josh and the boys.  Trevor's girlfriend Audra joined us for the evening.  Everyone ate so much, that I thought I was going to have to stick a pin in the guys to give them some relief.  They really enjoyed the food.  They just kept eating, and eating, and eating.

Then the waiters showed up with the drums and tambourine to sing happy birthday to Dave and I.  Dave and I stood up and gave it all we had.  We were not ones to miss out on a chance to totally embarrass our grandsons.   Dave clapped, and I shook the tambourine high and proudly as we both danced around the chairs laughing to the beat of the drums and the singing.

As you can see by Trevor and Audra's face, they didn't quite know how to take grandma and grandpa's dancing and carrying on.  Then they realized it was all in fun and just an act, and they started laughing and joining in on the fun also.

Ian of course had a good time with the celebration.  He loves a good party!   Of course in just a few weeks, it will be his 13th birthday and he will get his turn to dance and party.  He loves to play it up also, just like his grandma.  Anything for attention, right Ian?

Josh just kept on eating, he said it left more food for him as long was we were up dancing and having fun.   Before we left, everyone filled out birthday cards, so that next year they could all get a free meal on their birthday.  They all agreed that Tucanos is so much better than any other Brazilian restaurant in town and they definitely want to come back again.   Everyone had a good time, and ate way too much food.  We were all sorry that Shelle wasn't feeling well enough to join us.  She missed out on a good time, and lots of laughs.
