Quality Family Time

Yes, we could have stayed at home for a quiet family dinner. Better yet, we could have joined the family at Aunt Cindy's for an even lovelier family dinner. However, in our constant quest for masculinity (even Mommy), Mommy took the family to HOOTERS!

Gabriel watched the second half of the Patriots game at Hooters in the company of some very nice young women. He made lots of friends and got two balloons. He broke the string on the first one and then got another one because he was so cute and the boisterous man at the next table lobbied the staff for a balloon replacement.

Gabriel ate some very manly food: curly fries (his new favorite), fried pickles (yup they were good, but be careful not to eat too many), he might have eaten a few pieces of his hot dog and some key lime pie. We decided against giving him the buffalo chicken strips but he probably would have loved them.

He danced, clapped in all the right places and made some new friends as usual. It's a shame they weren't playing as Gabriel wore his Vikings winter hat.

It is a good kid place. Lots of stimulation for him. He needs it horribly. It's great because nothing is nice enough to care about getting ketchup all over it and the table comes with its own roll of paper towels. Seems little kids are just like men. Great place for both.

This is Gabriel eating Key Lime Pie.

Gabriel and his first balloon. He is performing for the next table.

No one touches Gabriel's balloon, not even Mommy. I have to watch this one again and again, it is too funny. (this one is showing up black on my screen but it still works if you click on the play button and then click again, let me know if it is not working for y'all)

I was hoping the waitress would pose with Gabriel, she was not a great waitress, wasn't really interested in Gabriel. I could tell she wasn't skilled with the younger crowd when she put a plate full of KNIVES in front of Gabriel. Maybe next time we will get a friendlier waitress and post some ambiance pictures for Harland.
