Not only did we take over her house...but we took over her husband's "Mantown Workshop"! We took the party outdoors to his tool shed, which is more like a guy's getaway, complete with a dartboard - power tools, and all other things "manly".
In addition to all of the fun - we also did a very quick mini-fundraiser. The night before, the house next door to Karla's caught on fire. It's completely destroyed. Fortunately, no one was hurt -but a young couple with a 4 month old baby girl was rendered homeless. So, in typical "Auntie" fashion - we all contributed as many clothes and baby supplies as we could so that Karla can bring them to the couple - and so they can try to start piecing their life back together, at least with regards to having supplies for their baby.
As we laughed, joked and had a good time - you could still smell the smoke in the air from the night before. Certainly makes you appreciate all that you have....and not want so much for what you don't have.
Because truly - life could be alot worse for us all.

I guess the boob showing happened later?
I wish I had friends! Pout!
Hey we both used a Mantown/Boystown reference today. Not the same but close enough to almost be the same. Too weird! We need to hang out in our next life.
Seriously, I need a group of friends like this.
It looks like alot of fun, I miss having a close knit group of friends like this.
All those beads. Y'all must have been naughty.
