Friday Yay ~Celebrating Retirement with Friends

Within two hours after the final dismissal bell,

we were celebrating my last day of school.

Unbeknownst to me, our friends had arranged for

a special evening of food and fellowship.

They reserved a table in Roma's Tuscany Room.

Hubby and I shared my favorite meal, Shrimp Fra Diablo. 

I love, love, love my gift.

Pretty sure they all think that in retirement,

I will turn into a Crazy Cat Lady...

Here is our host, serving after dinner drinks.

We 'girls' enjoyed his signature Chocolate Martini.

In case you were wondering,

yes, that is a 'beer bouquet' with the cat.

It was cleaverly created by our hostess.

Thank you, for a wonderful evening...

I treasure our friendship.

This was the perfect way to spend 

my first few hours of retirement.

Take care,

~Natalie
