Formal Night!

Our very first formal night at the McConkey's! We broke in our new chairs, new dining room table, with real napkins and everything! Grandma, McKenna, Mom and I took our 3rd generational photo for the annual Christmas letter too! Justin was our camera man!

For dessert I broke out the martini glasses and whipped up some super yummy chocolate mouse! I piped it in like they do on the cake shows and everything! Yum-O!
On the menu - To start we had jumbo shrimp cocktail. Followed by a candied walnut salad with rasberries and a yummy vinaigrette. Our main course, king crab legs, baked sweet potato, asparagus and french bread.
As Grandma said, "We're eating high on the hog!" Or something like that...

Zoey Boey Night Out

Justin, Bill, Nicole and I went out to see an oldie but a goody this past Sunday night! Zoey Boey was in town, a cover band that used to play at Barcelona, which is a club/bar that Justin and I first met at! They now play in Vegas so it was a treat to get to see them again. Took us back to the good ol' days!
We had a very entertaining night watching all the Scottsdale Cougars come out with their game faces on! No joke! There were old men with their young 20 somethings and Cougars in their prime! It was literally like being at the Zoo! There was something to see at every turn!
