UPDATE!!! Stepson told Dad no. So this makes Memorial Day, Father's Day & 4th of July without any of his kids. I took some 'kiddie' fireworks by for my gd since I though they weren't going to be here. Now they may, after all.
Thanks everyone for the party tips. Good ideas on recipes.
Jack, Bravo Foxtrot is, as another DB'r suggested "Deployed to the Land of Oz, there he is the NCOIC of the f@@king flying monkeys." My house is in the middle of the Ouachita Mtns., which unfortunately is the kind of remote site of many a zombie horrer movie mayhem. Said BF is now planning a trip to San Antonio ( another town he hates) to see a horse show ( the man is afraid of horses) Seriously, won't even feed them through a fence.
