Birthday To Remember

Andrea’s mom (Deanna) recently celebrated a very special occasion, her 50th birthday. Between Andrea and her mom, I am busy with birthday bashes during the summer. Deanna normally likes to have some sort of celebration for her birthday, but this year was bigger and better! She hired a karaoke DJ and had them in their large shop all night. At the beginning of the party, everyone was saying they weren’t going to sing. By the end of the night, just about everyone had performed a song at some point. Andrea, her sister and her mom kicked the party off with this wonderful rendition of “These Boots Were Made for Walking”.

After they performed, the flood gates of karaoke singers opened. I managed to sing (I wouldn’t call what I do singing) a few songs and had a great time. I apparently rocked the joint with my performance of “Ice Ice Baby” and my excellent dancing skills. I think there might be video of it somewhere but I’m working to suppress it! Even the kids got into the fun and sang a couple songs. I channeled my inner mullet and belted out Ratt’s “Round and Round” in my high pitched 80’s rock voice. All in all, it was a Birthday to remember!
