Establishing Memories

Yes I know not really an original title... but it is what this post is about :)...

My family and my hubby's family is spread out all over the place leaving us seldom open windows of togetherness. Some of most vivid memories as a child always

revolve around family gatherings, mostly BBQ's at my Granny Konarik's who joined the Lord years ago. I want our children to have that same warm feeling when they think of family and their childhood. So when the opportunity arises and we can participate we do

.

This year 22 of us met December 26th in Downtown Houston, at

the Spaghetti Warehouse!

They have various locations around the USA (sorta like our family :P)

if you want to check it out you can visit their website and sign up for their email club... you will get a free appetizer coupon within 48 hours... and if you do so now you will also get a BOGO Spaghetti and meatballs (a 10.00 value) for national Spaghetti Day which is January the 4th. It was sure nice seeing my aunts and uncles, as well as cousins along with their children the

food IMO was delicious, I sorta felt our table needed more than 2 waiters... but you know over all the 2 we had were very nice and attentive as well as 2 could be to so many people. The stairs in the building are said to be over 400 years old and the downtown location comes packed with stories of all sorts. Anyhow The kids took a few pictures... and of course I want to share them :)

This caboose is on the second floor and you are able to dine in it or pose for pictures ;)

Sadly I didn't get any other pictures of other family members - it felt like a dine and dash but never the less it was so wonderful seeing everyone again!

There is a lot of nostalgia in this place the one could google and read for a day, but I will leave that up to you to explore if you so choose so ~ until next time....
