Birthday cuddles with Daddy......

Abigail and Lloyd yesterday.....

Lloyds birthday dinner....

We tried to persuade Lloyd to go to Montanas for his birthday dinner but he just plain refused lol....there was NO WAY he was going to wear that moose head ;) so he took us to Joeys Med Grill for dinner instead! We had a lovely evening! When we first arrived they didn't have a table large enough for us, and as all their tables are bolted to the floor, we were seated at two small tables. I was really sad that we would not be all together, so our waitress was really apologetic and mentioned it to the Night Manager, Mark. Lloyd said we could go elsewhere, but I knew he had wanted to go there for his birthday dinner. Mark came over and said they could move us to a table that seats 5 and that they HAD sat 7 there before but that it might be a tight fit...I said I didn't mind at all so long as we were together...so we all moved over and it was wonderful :)

At the end of the meal Mark came over again and asked how the meal was and if we had been happy with everything.....I love Joeys....we have always been so thrilled with the service there and NEVER had a bad meal EVER - we've been going there since the first week we arrived in Canada.

Last night was so much fun! I had some lovely Red Rooster wine....one of my favourites...in fact I had far too much for me lol! I had the butter chicken - so did Susie! Chris had the Miso Ramen bowl...Laurence ordered the lobster stuffed ravioli that is also stuffed with crab and shrimp.....I tried some of his and it was yummy......Abigail ordered sliders but then wished she ordered the butter chicken! She ate some of mine! Lloyd had the quesadillas.....

Instead of staying for dessert we picked up a birthday cake on the way home and had that when we got back!

Everyone was in a good mood (even Chris lol although its hard to tell in the pictures lol) and it was just a great evening!!
