The look on Lauriejeane's face was priceless when she realized that that her fellow VT members had gathered in her honor.
Those in attendance included:
Giampiero
Stephanie and Gerry
T-Bone
Jenn_d
Rowangbr
Yubert
Goner
AnnK
Spartan
Lauriejeane
Sulanjulie
Patrick
lmkluque
TinKan
Dionosaur
% The two were in the area on layover to Hawaii so it seemed only fitting for Jenn_d to make them a cake with a Hawaiin theme.
Wine and champagne were poured from start to finish. Guests donned matching dinner bibs, ate with their hands, and were given given only mallots to attack the selection of shellfish and eachother with. This was one night when it was perfectly acceptable to get down and dirty with the food.

Errrr...Do we know the ANGELA's telephone number? Did she sign my "for sure" coming p/c? Oh guys!! Suffering of the capital sin that starts with "e".
ayyy ~ you crazy cats! I am sorry I couldn't make it to this, it looks like you guys had fun... Y'all must have had a few beverages ~ I had to listen to Giampieros message 3 times to figure out what he said! hahaha... See you all soon!
It’s nice to see another successful VT gathering. I’m just sorry we missed it!
Looks like y'all had a blast. Do VTers know how to party? Yep... they do!
We had a blast and the group was more than we had hoped for. Great folks!!! Hell Jenn we did not even get to see the champagne at our end of the table.
What a fun party! Oh, I'm so sorry I couldn't be there for the big event. 5am came WAYYYY too early the next day. Jenn, great job organizing and what a cake! Congrats to Spartan and Lauriejeane!
Who drank all the champagne?!?! Oh, that's right...I did. The VT crowd never disappoints, great meeting you all. It was my pleasure being hostess. I didn't expect to be hostess until 2 am on a Sunday night though!
Cool! Looks like everyone had a wonderful time! Congrats to Spartan & Lauriejeane!
Jenn you did a marvelous job!! I had such a good time! Thanks for all your effort and that cake was amazing--you are talented!
