Don't Mess with a Llama!

2010-10-19T10:42:00.002-05:00

We are soon going to be working on a traditional crest for all Llamas to bear. It will be served up in patch form and expected to be placed on a dinner jacket or something equally as cool! ha.

(It is not this patch, but that is funny!)

2010-05-24T08:45:00.000-05:00

My solution to the Float Trip restrictions! I ordered 2 of these bad boys for the weekend! Let's hope it is as cool as it seems!

Llamas in the Community

2009-06-23T22:22:00.004-05:00

Hey guys! Llamas need to do more for our community and I have the perfect opportunity. The Independence Police Dept. is having a fundraiser for the department that helps protect kids. The event is the 25th of July and is going to be so much fun! They have a band, great dinner, great guest host, and lots of fun auction items. It should be a blast. Comment if you're interested and we can decide if we should get a llama table!!!! Good times. Here's the link.

Float Trip Cost

2009-05-31T11:41:00.004-05:00

Okay guys, here is the scoop. ( I always feel like this is the Debbie Downer portion of the float trip announcements. I am sure most of us can remember when this part of the prep didn't turn out so well....)

I reserved 9 canoes for a total cost of $7.50 per person ($15 per canoe).
The total cost for each person is as follows:
$16 for canoe + $5 for camping = $21 per person.

The following folks have had their canoe reserved by ME so they owe $7.50 per person to me and $13.50 to Maggards:
Ian, Cara, Al, Jon, Brooke, Justin, Tiffani, Chris, Jackie, Smitty, Christina, Mark, Amanda, Amanda's guest, Debbie, Josh, Amy, Sam

If you were not on that list and are coming to the float trip (and floating) please make sure that Maggard's has a canoe for you! Their number is 1-888-546-9788 or www.maggardscanoe.com. They usually have plenty, but you may want to make sure.

Our campsite is reserved under NAU.

Can't wait to see all of you there!!!!

Okay, ran into this site browsing the wonderful world wide web. The entire oddee site is pretty entertaining if you have the time to waste.

Better than the real llama song?

2009-04-09T07:55:00.000-05:00

Yup here it is!

Booze and Food Club recap...

2009-04-05T20:33:00.004-05:00

And the first Llama cup winner of the year is...drum roll please...Tiff! The first ever booze and food club quickly and suddenly became the Tiffany show. It was a lot of fun, and everyone left the party envious of Tiff's good time. We all have memories of our own Llama cup wins. I think in honor of this first win we should all share our memories of llama cup wins. One of my favorites is the time at cheesecake factory when I convinced everyone that I was a server, and threatened to throw a fork. Can you remember your last llama cup win? Maybe it's your turn. Remember there's a once a year quota!

PS See me about the special video footage we captured of the night!

Crawl for Cancer

2009-03-31T21:00:00.004-05:00

Hey guys the crawl for cancer is just around the corner and we need to get our entries in before this Friday April 3rd or we have to pay more. If you're interested it's 500 per team of 10. You get a shirt and free beer all day. It's really fun. I've attached a link so check it out. Contact me this week or leave a comment, then drop a check in the mail or come by. We also need to think about transportation and or lodging. Last year Jon and I really wished we had gotten a hotel room. Holiday in is running a special for $99 a room. Drink on!

CAMO PARTY!

2009-03-28T16:49:00.004-05:00

Here's a little snapshot of Camo Party! We had a great time! Thanks Heidi and Brad for letting the llamas invade your home and making us yummy dinner!

Booze and Food Club

2009-03-24T22:10:00.006-05:00

Ok llamas! It's time for the first Booze and Food club meeting. Normally the monthly event would take place at the Nau's house, but due to birthday obligations the dinner will be relocated to the Carenza casa. This months theme is Weenie's and Martini's! Bring a crockpot food and your favorite Martini mix! We'll get the evening started around 7!

2009-03-15T19:01:00.001-05:00

Camo party in just 5 days! I can't wait. Dig out your camo and water guns. I know we usually go to that place in Lees Summit. Does anyone know if we have to have a reservation? Hmm we might need to get on that.

Babies....Babies...Babies

2009-03-10T21:15:00.005-05:00

Look at Kelly & the baby!
How natural!
Ahh...it warms my heart
Totally ready
She is so sad & needs a new little llama (and wants to hang out with other little llamas...VANESSA, NICK, JACKIE & SMITTY..HINT HINT)

Yep, I'm ready for more llama babies......SOMEONE ELSE'S llama babies that is! You all need to get cracking. Avery needs a new little llama friend. She is longing to share her wisdom and humor with someone else that is under 3 feet tall. Don't let me down. I am counting on all of you!

Girls

2009-03-09T20:29:00.002-05:00

I am missing my girls day. We need a new girls day. Let's get some ideas for different days that work and shows so we can reinstate it until April when the Bachelorette is back on!!

The Bachelor Finale in 130 words or less...

2009-03-02T22:39:00.003-06:00

JASON: OH Man I can feel up two girls whenever I want!

CHRIS: You have to choose one.

JASON: What? That sucks. {Confusing Lady Tears}

MELISSA: I am awesome and hot and probably too perky, but I am putting everything into this!

TACKLES KID!!

MOLLY: Jason, pick me already!

JASON: Mommy....it's hard. I love Molly, but I am not going to pick her.

WHANNNNNWHAANNNN.

MOLLY: You just made a BIG mistake.

JASON: Psh. Will you marry me Melissa?

MELISSA: Um, sort of the whole point, of course!

6 WEEKS LATER...

JASON: Well I already nailed you so, I guess I should probably hit up bitch-face now.

MELISSA: You're such a bastard...

JASON: Pretty much, so Molly....what's up? Let's get a beer and take it slow...{makeout with Molly noises}.

SCENE

meatballs, memories and ...apples?

2009-03-01T18:44:00.002-06:00

After filling up on meatballs the llamas played Apples to Apples and then watched some old home videos. I think everyone would agree that it's a good thing we took the video camera out all those times. It was fun looking back, even though it was only a short 6 years ago we looked like babies! Good times llamas!

It's Nanner Puss!!

2009-02-28T20:50:00.002-06:00

2009-02-27T07:44:00.004-06:00
