Three for the Road

Sami joined us on a quick trip to see his cousins, Michaela and Nathan, in Virginia.  We had a great time playing, hiking, and hunting for treasure.  Lexi made us a delicious vegetarian lasagna and Jeff whipped up his signature pancakes. Thanks, NOVA Pearces, for a wonderful time!

Happy Birthday to Carly!

Tiffany planned a gala birthday weekend to celebrate Carly's 30th in Ellicottville, NY near the Holiday Valley ski resort.

We started with dinner out Friday at the Silver Fox (champagne compliments of Nicole, who couldn't join us).  Saturday had a variety of activities including skiing, sledding, snow angels and party prep.

We all gathered at 5 at the house for a gourmet chili dinner  - chefs Tiffany and Henry made 2 outstanding creations for the entrees.  Throw in great conversation, a piƱata, charades, plus lots of libations, and you have the recipe for a fun evening.  

And yes, there was some controversy over Charade rules (can you point to a color?) and yes, there were some interesting moments   (how would YOU act out "My Ding-a-Ling" or  "Bourne Identity ?")  But a good time was had by all - and now our last child has left the 20's behind.
