A Trip to Dave & Buster's Sports Bar

The boys took a field trip to Dave & Buster's today. I wasn't there, but I can only imagine they were in heaven !! Over 15,000 square feet of games, games, games !! Could it get any better than that ??

A Friendly Game of TEXAS HOLD EM !!

Me, Shockey, Wraith, Airrick, Milenko & Sgt played a friendly game of TEXAS HOLD EM. Last year I beat all the boys .... but this year I only managed to make it to 3rd. Airrick won the game and Sgt came in 2nd. It was a fun game !!

Hamburgers, Hot Dogs & Hot Wings..

Well -- it was a lazy day and Dwayne and I cooked dinner this afternoon. Faust was nice enough to bring lots of burgers with him from the company he works for - US Food Service. Boy -- were they good !!

He also brought lots of big ole juicy chicken wings. Dwayne smoked those on the big green egg and everyone enjoyed !!

Some more than others.....

Airrick !! Airrick !! Airrick !!

Airrick arrived this afternoon from Savannah. Welcome to SOEFEST Airrick !!

Movie and Breakfast

Everyone got up at the early hour of 11:00 am and enjoyed a breakfast of Bacon, Sausage, Scrambled Eggs, Hasbrowns, Biscuits and Gravy. Furry said it was the BEST BREAKFAST HE HAD EVER HAD IN HIS ENTIRE LIFE....I told him he had lived quite a sheltered life !!

Anyway, everyone seemed to enjoy breakfast. Right after breakfast they had a quick break to watch an old classic movie. What fun !!

YEAH !!!! Another Girl !!!

I had another girl show up to join my team tonight !! Sherri stopped by with Shockey. Shockey came and set up his computer in preparation of gaming with the boys the rest of the week.

Sherri and I got to visit for a while. It sure was nice talking to someone that wasn't burping and tooting the entire time.....hehe !!

Gaming started right away. Here is Met, Shockey & Faust (Dwayne, Donnie & Jason) getting ready for BATTLE !!

The arrival of Furry !

Furry arrived on Saturday afternoon. He pulled in from a 13 hour commute from Connecticut. He drove down in his MUSTANG also. What a pretty car !!

Welcome Furry !!

Milly & Wraith...Let the Party Begin !!

The next guests to arrive are Milenko and Wraith. They flew in....in the wee hours of Saturday morning in the MUSTANG GT !!

Mr. Walker had planned to go to bed early...but after Mil and Wraith's arrival, it was about 5am before he made it !! Guess it was a good night.

Welcome WRAITH !!

I was trying to get a good picture of Mil....but he and Sgt were attached at the hip.....getting re-acquainted...so.....WELCOME MILENKO !!

A Present Just For ME ????

SOPHIA !!! Thank you so much for my present ! I do accept your gift of sweet treats as payment for putting up with "you know who" !!

Seriously ... thank you so much for my TOWER OF TREATS !!! I have already threatened everyone here that if ANYONE touches the MOOSE MUNCH....they are DEAD !!!! And not even their RANK in the game could save them.

You are very sweet !! And the treats are too !!

Announcing the Arrival of Flight 394 from Cali !!

TA DA !! Sgt arrived right on schedule. We (me, Dwayne and Faust) took the SOE Mobile to the Atlanta Airport and picked up our 2nd guest.....SARGIE !!!

It was great to see Andy. The last time Dwayne and I saw him was at his wedding this past March. We sure do wish Sophia could have joined him.......or better yet, I should have gone to California for the week and she and I could have had our own FEST !! But .... even though we are missing Sophia.....we are glad Sgt (aka Andy) is here !!

Want a closer look at that sign ???? Just for those of you wondering....the sign is for his wife...Sophia.

It has officially begun !! SOEFEST 2006

Our first guest to arrive was Faust. He wandered in about 4:30 and quickly got his computer set up --- claiming the best seat in the house.

Others are set to arrive in a few hours !!

The fun has officially BEGUN !!

Just kidding. It is always a BLAST...and we are looking forward to it.

Another SHOUT out !!

DONNIE BROWN !!!! Thank you so much for coming by today and putting the second desk together. YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER !!!!

Thanks for being such a good friend to my sweet DWAYNE...and to me too !!!

We love you man !!

Tammy Dyer (aka Dwayne Walker's LICENSED Assistant)

LOCHINVER IS UNDER CONTRACT !!!!! Most of the listings showed NUMEROUS times !!! Hundreds of phone calls came in !!!

Tammy --- did a FABULOUS job taking care of bizzness while we were gone !!

Tammy .... you are the best !! If it were not for you, we could not go out of town and feel confident about the business while we were gone.

THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS for always standing in the gap and keeping things moving smoothly while we are gone !! We love you !!!!!

You are the BEST licensed assistant a TOP PRODUCER could ever have !!!

Home Again...Home Again...Jiggity Jig !!

Well, here we are...back home in good ole Conyers GA !! We had such a good time !!

We didn't post the last day or two of the cruise because the internet connection was so bad. It was costing us BIG BUCKS to continue getting error messages...

Anyway, this was the first cruise that me and Dwayne have ever been on by ourselves. Our usual M.O. is to have a whole posse of friends or family with us. This time, it was just us, and we had a blast. Not only are we husband and wife, but we are BEST FRIENDS and when we get to hang out together it is ALWAYS an absolute FABULOUS time.

While we were gone we rested, relaxed, went sight seeing, made new friends and just enjoyed spending every minute together. It will be hard to go back to work and not be together all day. We really miss each other when we are not together. Most people think we are crazy....but it is true. We love spending everyday all day together !!!

Here are a few other miscellaneous pictures from our trip.....we started out in Miami then sailed to Nassau, St. Thomas and finally St. Martin followed by 2 days at sea.

ENJOY !!!
