Lance is having a Birthday!
 

I finally got a job, and we;ve both finally gotten healthy again, so at the last minute we're able to have a party for Lance's Birthday (#29!).

This coming Saturday, come on out to Hillcrest Park in Fullerton - we'll be there from 12:00 onward and will be serving up hamburgers and hotdogs from the grill, having party games, and of course... cake.

Dogs are welcome at this park!

You can PM either myself or Lance to let us know you're coming, and we'll be sure to have enough burgers for all.

If there is inclement weather, we will move the party to our home in Garden Grove. I will update if that will be the case.

Thanks!

Doesn't he have a birthday EVERY year?

Well, that was my first thought when I read the thread title...




Unfortunately, we already have plans for that day. Happy Birthday to Lance - have fun on Saturday!

We may not be able to stay all afternoon - we have another event that evening. But we'll see you Saturday!

We are otherwise engaged for the day. Wish him happy birthday for us!

Hoping to be there for a little bit!

Sorry, Madz has her big Polo Tournament all weekend. I hope you all have a great time and Happy Birthday!

I wish I could go but I have a client meeting on Saturday....booo :(

Please wish him a Hippo Birdy from me! Sounds like fun but too far for me! :(

Aww! Wish we'd known ahead of time.

Sorry, prior plans. Have a great time!

Unfortunately, I have a date with a dentist. Your event sounds like more fun.

I'll be there till I have to go to work :)

I will be working that day. Have a great time!

Happy Birthday to Lance! Will try but no guarantees.

Thank for the hea'ds up and have fun this weekend, too! :)

Awwww. I'm sorry to hear that!

It's the "Try" that counts! I hope we'll see you there! :)

Thanks - we'll try.Have fun working (Hey with what you do for a living, it really IS fun, isn't it?)

Yeay!!! :) We look forward to seeing you there!

Awww. You'll be missed. Have fun with your other engagement!

Lance was definitely hoping you'd come- he's rather fond of your cooking, it turns out... :)

Where exactly on the 37 acres are you going to be?

There are barbeques and tables not far from the playground. There's parking near a large flat grassy area, if you go down to the right from the parking, you'll see the barbeque's. PM me, and I'll give out my cell phone in case anyone needs assistance finding us!

I'm gonna try try try. I'm no less than quaduple-booked on Saturday, but my happiness at your jobiness reprive makes me want to celebrate with you and Lance tremendously.

Should be on my way soonish :)

Well, I sure am sorry I bailed early. Never made it anywhere near my next destination in time.


Pleasant picnic park hijnks tho. Wish I would have had an internal reality check on L.A. traffic and just stayed where I was with friends.


Sigh.

What a hidden jewel that park is! Like our own little bit of Griffith Park. (Minus the animal cages and plus awesome pig-size rotisserie pit).

And there were land sleds!!! I want one of those things so bad, those kids sledding the amphitheatre (or whatever you'd call that grassy bowl area) made me so jealous!

I got a couple pictures, mostly of that pair of frolicking butterflies:





And here's Birthday Boy with the candles of doom


The picnic area of the park (you can just barely see the grass bowl behind the trees where they were using the land sleds (I know they're wheeled, but they still worked like sleds so I'm calling 'em sleds)


Oh, and if you like the butterflies, here's a few seconds of video
