My friend Kate planned a surprise 50th birthday party for her husband, John. He is an avid hunter, so the theme was ‘camouflage’, a very difficult word to spell. Everyone came in the appropriate gear, and looked smashing. Kate made a wispy camouflage-coat/caftan thing that was stunning, but any picture I took had a blurry coat and still face, or a still coat and blurry face, so here’s just the awesome, twirly coat:
While we were waiting for them to show up, we found ways to amuse ourselves. Annette and I took prom pictures together, by the deer:
“What is Lauren wearing?” you ask? Well, I’m not so fond of hunting, so I came as……
Lloyd had an outfit, too. This marks the first (and only) time that I have sewn a necktie. He wore the whole outfit to school today, and it was pretty funny. The kids would ask, “Why are you wearing camouflage?” He’d answer, “You can see me?”

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! HEHEHEHEHE!!!! I’m falling off my chair … Bargain Hunter — save a buck (I’m with ‘ya)— Ingenius. “You can see me?” HAHA-HOHOHO!!! I gotta go to the bathroom … oops, never mind.
Brad says
What’re all the pictures of? I don’t see anybody. Ha!
Kristi says
That is an excellent tie. I’m sure no bucks were harmed in the sewing of that tie; in fact, you probably saved a few! Now let’s see you sew those with your preschoolers!

I’m just drawn in my those smashing maryjanes…
Lauren says
I wore them because they were such a bargain. 🙂
Annette says
That “dork on the left” is my date. Gorsh, I’ll never go to prom again.
Beth says
I mostly amazed that Lloyd, Lauren and Annette all have camo pants. How can that be?
Lauren says
You can thank the good people at Dollar General (purchased for cheap) and also Melanie’son (borrowed) for the camo.
