Family Date

I'm a week late posting this family date. Actually, I had to wait for Megan to put the photos on her facebook so I could grab them and do this post! I really need to purchase a new camera.

We met the girls at their house and headed to a Greek restaurant called "Blackwood's Gyro & Grill". We ordered Hummus dip as an appetizer. It comes with amazing pita bread for dipping.

Meg took this picture of John & I right after a horrible headache hit me. I usually always have BC Powder on me and this time I had none! So I suffered the entire night with my head pounding. I just pushed through it and enjoyed the family being together.

My girls looking pretty as usual.

Tori & Daddy.

Meg & Momma

Tori ordered the Greek Salad...it has loads of Feta cheese and comes with an amazing greek dressing. Meg & I shared the Greek Salad and the Louisiana Rex sandwich. It's a chicken breast with cajun seasoning, topped with cheddar cheese and served on a sour dough roll. John had the Lamb Gyro. It had loads of meat in it. He was frustrated 'cause he didn't know how to hold it once it came undone. Tori re-wrapped it for him. Meg got this picture of him....it was funny!
He had the sauce all over his face. Every time this man eats he has food either in his goatee or in the corners of his mouth. Crazy, but I love that about him!!

What's BC Powder? I take Imitrex. Is that nate-ur-al stuff?

I can't do hummus OR gyros but I LOVE greek salad and pita bread. We've got Daphne's out here. You got those out there in yonder parts?

Becky said...

You can always tell what Mike's been eating by his goatee. He is usually wearing his evidence. Either that or his shirt! LOL.

Oh well.. Men!

Michelle said...

You guys have so much fun together, it is great!

You like weird ass food too. lol

Joy said...

What a sweet time together.

Sorry you got a headache.

Heather said...

I agree with Michelle; you DO like weird-ass food :)

My kids would never in 300 years try Feta cheese. I love it. I love Greek food. I can't wait to go to Epcot and try lots of different ethnic foods with the kids. Who knows; maybe they'll find something they like.

Poor thing, I can tell by the look on your face that you had a headache. Man, those things suck.

Melody said...

Sorry about your headache. :-(
What is BC Powder?

It looks like you all had a great time, though.
