Trey's Going Away

Last weekend, we had to say goodbye to Trey Goodman.  He has worked at Carpenter for at least the last 2 years, maybe 3.  He is a big teddy bear.  We all love him so much.  He got a new job as the Park Ranger for the Galveston Island State Park in Galveston.  So, we met at Gloria's in Frisco to bid him adieu.  John Finley and Dave Napoli had told the waiter that we wanted to sing "For He's A Jolly Good Fellow."  They thought he said "Happy Birthday."  So, Trey got a piece of cake out of the deal.  I had ordered the chicken tacos, but I received the fish tacos.  I didn't even realized until halfway through the second one.  If you are wondering, they were good.

We miss you already Trey!

Game Night at Steve's

Game nights are beginning to be a regular occurrence for the Carpenter Park gang. We all met at Steve Norman's for his 42nd birthday. Everyone brought some food so we had a great smorgasbord. I brought a few games, but Steve has an XBOX. So you know what that means? Rock Band! However, we couldn't get it to work. Eleshia called their son to see if he could help over the phone. I think he thought we were all crazy. So Steve and Trey ran out to the video store and came back with The Beattles Rock Band. It's amazing how many Beattles songs I don't know the real words to. But they are classics that everyone likes and knows the tune. It was a great sing-a-long. I got 100% on one song, but I forgot what it was. My camera batteries died before I could take any pictures. This was the only one I got. The video I recorded on my phone.

Goodbye Again Coffy!

Coffy got another promotion! We are all very happy for her. She will be the new Recreation Supervisor of Oak Point Recreation Center. So we celebrated at Manny's Uptown. I finally got to try the brisket tacos. They were good. It was nice to get everyone together. We will miss her!

The girls!
