Thank you both for opening your home to this bunch of bananas!
I enjoyed my visit with you and the rest of the OH bunch.
The food and friendship are just out of this world.

For me the only person that was there that I hadn't met was Stephanie. What a pleasure to meet you. Having just had surgery on Wednesday, I may not have ventured out to this outing...your a brave woman. I hope that you and your husband enjoyed meeting and talking with the rest of us.

It was nice chatting with everyone who was there and seeing the changes that we have gone thru.
We will be posting meet and greet recipes on Monday.

Hope you all had a great "sweetest day" and have a wonderful Sunday!

I'd like to say thanks too Paul and LIz! I had a great time! Food was yummy and the people were great to see. Paul, I just love that pulled pork. It is so yummy! I cant wait to get the other recipes because everything was good.

Steph, It was great to meet you. You are doing fantastic! Keep up the successful journey! Dawn, best of luck on Wednesday. May your surgery be trouble free and the healing speedy.

It was fun seeing the little ones. They are always a delight. I get such a kick out of them. Their imaginations are great!

Paul and Liz, It was really nice of you to put up with all of us! Thank you again!

I just want to add my thanks to Paul and Liz too. You make everyone feel so comfortable. As usual, the food was great, as is the friendships that we all have developed.

I also have to agree, Stephanie, you are definaly brave to come out to a party 4 days after surgery. But, I was glad to meet you. The next gettogether you will look so different!

Hugs to all,

I have to add my thanks also! Paul and Liz are great hosts and I ALWAYS love to get together with all my OH friends (and eat pulled pork).

It was great to meet Steph and see how we are all doing.

Since I have some time today, I think I will start the "Recipe's From Paul's Party" thread. Who knows what my day tomorrow will be like.

Thanks again!

Tell someone that you love them!

I will repost my recipe but Dave and I have been thinking of "tweeks" for it because we think it is too bland, a little tasteless and dry.

      Success begins with wise choices I make,I will not let noncompliance be my mistake, The surgery I had was to assist me in changes. My compliance is for a success long range, So I will think before I decide to cheat. Remember the goals I want to meet. For this surgery is not something I was force to do It was what I wanted for a healthy life!

Thanks Everyone!

We had a great time and enjoyed all the great food as well. It seems more like a family gathering these days. It is so nice to be able to visit face to face with everybody. The kids had a great time too! I look forward to the next one as well!!!

Dave and I are echoing what everyone else has said so far. It was so relaxing to be together. We are all like a an "old pair of shoes" a left foot and a right foot. We all compliment each other.
