love fest

Last night for Valentines day we had a party.  A love fest if you will :)  Besides the 4 of us who live here we also invited our neighbors over and my sister had a friend who joined us too.  Folks came over at about 5:00 and that's when we started getting everything ready, we grilled and made fajitas, it took us a good hour to get it all together and everyone helped a little.  Family dinner is what I call that, you may not be related but you act like family and everyone pitches in and does a little.  It makes for some chaos and for lots of laughs.

After we finally sat down to eat we were all laughing and having a good time and the fun just continued.  Lance got everyone talking and answering questions, we played the ice breaker game "truth truth lie"...which was hilarious because everyone felt conflicted about lying but did it anyways :)  and we figured out who was good at spotting a lie in the group so we now know who never to bother lying to.  hehe.  

After that ran it's course I asked that the 3 people in the group who were singer song writers to have a Lockhart Writers Round.  So Jess got her guitar and brought it down and the musical fun began.  It was fun to hear 3 talented people share a little bit of their talent with the rest of us.  And of course Lance who participates in everything joined the fun and wrote a couple songs on the spot and "sang" them for us and had us all in tears laughing...clever lyrics, great entertainment and bad singing all mixed into one makes for a good time ;) Thanks Lance.  Before we knew it it was almost 11:00 and we called it a night.  

It was such a nice time and so great to be surrounded with new and old friends in our home.  A regular love fest.
