: NE Birthday Bash Check in!!!!
: chaos270 July 22, 2006, 06:39:06 PM
Ok we need to get this planned before summer ends!  I'm thinking August 5th or 6th or maybe the next weekend for the meetngreet at our house in Preston CT.  We will have ice cream for the puppers from UCONN Dairy Bar.  Let me know if you guys can all make it and which day you'd prefer.

I'm thinking it would be waaay too far for me and the four monsters, and the weekend of the 10th is tied up with our mastiff rescue group family picnic.  I would love to see pics and hear all the wonderful stories when its over though.

another bump. Not just for the Newfs everyone, we might seam a little biased, its just we know our small group will get together. I wish you could make it Imani's Mom,it would be cool to have your guys running around down here. I'll IM Titan's Mom sometime in the next couple a days and see if we can't get her in on the action again. Rich you try and get Shawna's attention. Tim & Kali

Hi,

Lets Go for Next Saturday the 5th of August!! Does that work what time do the Spanos' plan to open the gates to pupper fun!!!What can I bring to the party besides a birthday boy!!!  ;D  ;D  ;D

Rich
: Re: NE Birthday Bash Check in!!!!
: Tspanos July 25, 2006, 08:05:22 PM
It will be Sat the 5th then, barring any drastic changes. Eiren & Stacey should plan on just over 2 hrs, same for Rich and Shawna, +traffic. Anyone else we're between the two Casinos in CT. We can do a BBQ, we'll work from there.

The Funny Farm will be open for you all whenever you should get here.

The backyard may be fenced in by then too, depends on me getting the one chainlink section in though, not to worry though we sit about 500' off the road.

Hi,

BUMP BUMP BUMP. Come on folks this is not just a newfie fun day. Anyone in NY, RI, CT, MA, Southern ME, VT or NH this is a quick shot to Preston CT. I hear there are horses on the farm too.  link to Preston CT Map http://maps.google.com/maps?oi=map&q=Preston,+CT


What is the start Time I say lets aim for 11ish does that work??

Rich
: Re: NE Birthday Bash Check in!!!!
: chaos270 July 26, 2006, 01:59:33 PM
Maybe you guys could do desserts and salads? 11ish works for us. We have water and kiddie pools, tables and probably enough chairs.  We can handle the hamburgers and hotdogs.  And yes we have two horses that we'll make sure have been put away from the puppers when they're loose.  Everyone who's interested let me know so we can PM you more specific directions.

cant wait to see everyone!!  :)  umm... stacy and i can bring dessert this time! :) we've got a good place that has biscotti and stuff.. just let us know what you prefer the most?? cookies?? cakes??? let me know!
: Re: NE Birthday Bash Check in!!!!
: Winslow 151 July 26, 2006, 09:54:35 AM
Hi,

Cookies and Cake why choose!! I can find something in the fruit salad world if you guys are covering the sweets!! It will be fun hopefully we'll get some more additions to the Birthday fun!!

Rich

: Tspanos July 26, 2006, 12:23:09 PM
Eiren, anything sounds good for dessert. What do the normal chocolate woopie pies look like/taste like from Fumble's bakery.
We will have vanilla "real ice cream" for the puppers if anyone has a preference for another flavor for themselves let Erin know, so she can grab some before she comes home.
Go for it if you want to make a fruit salad.
Shawna you don't eat red meat right? Would you like BBQ chicken or would something else appeal to you more.
Let us know guys.  Tim

Whats with the liquid diet everyone.
To the girls what do you all like to eat we want to make sure we have stuff.
Hey Rich if you wanted to you could even bring the camper. You could either setup along our driveway or this campground is practically our neighbor, we can hear their annocements all summer.
: Re: NE Birthday Bash Check in!!!!
: Fumble July 29, 2006, 12:41:34 AM
We have a huge box of boca burgers that my mom bought when she was visiting, shawna I can bring some with me if you want?

: Imani's Mom July 30, 2006, 05:56:33 AM
I sure do wish the kids and I could make it!  Sounds like it will be a wonderful day, all the way around!  Please, somebody, take lots of pictures to share with those of us who can't be there.   I *DO* want to be kept in the loop for when these things happen in the future, as it might be at a time when I could make it!

Hi,

I have to work Sunday morning at 10am so I am planning just a day trip to Preston, I'll have the pup and save the gas cost for towing the camper!! Thanks for the offer if I had some free time I would definately take the camper!! Maybe I'll ride over and check the place out as a "Future" option especially since Wimslow's Girlfriend lives next door!!

Speaking of gas it is $3.45 and climbing for premium, don't know regular right now as I run diesel, so fill up back home. When we were up by Rich & Shawna we saved something like 9 or 10 cents a gallon on regular back the beginning of June.
