Date Night ~Winner Winner, Chicken Dinner ~~Mardi Gras Style ~~~The Highlight of my Week

Hubby and I received an invitation to the 
Safe Harbor Fundraising Event yesterday.

Thank you to our gracious host and hostess 
and to the sponsor of our table, Northwestern Energy.

The event, with a Mardi Gras theme,
was a benefit for Safe Harbor, our local domestic abuse shelter.

We arrived early to enjoy the Silent Auction and Casino.
Hubby doubled his "Fun Money" at the Black Jack Table.

Dinner was tasty...and yes, it was a "chicken dinner"!

Cajun Sauteed Chicken with Shrimp
Andouille Vegetable Etouffee
Jumbalaya

Butter Rum Cake

And then, they announced the winners of the Auctions.

Hubby had placed two of his winning Casino tickets 
into the drawing for this coveted prize.
And... they drew his ticket!!
Yup, the Coach Purse was mine!


It was tough to top that...
however, the enterainment was so much fun.

kept the crowd on their toes!

I hope you had a wonderful weekend.

Take care,
~Natalie

Now sweet hubby is very sweet...and congratulations on winning the purse..it's definitely you.
