The Wifey's 55th Bday party

Well gang I really was a happy boy last week getting to fire up beamer for several items to enhance my wife’s surprise bday party. It was at a karaoke bar we rented out because my youngest is 18, she wasn’t allowed IN the place during normal biz hours. So from 4:30 to 7:30 we did that and then went out to dinner. I made the shot glasses as door prizes for anybody that got up and sang. And I made the risers for the food tables. 2 layers of chipboard glued together then covered with foil. would have painted them but the weather was not cooperating. The risers held cutting boards that I got to engrave, but covered in bday wrapping paper and saran wrap so I can laser then some time in the future.

LOL, I sang the Gambler with my future son in law and his dad. they kinda left me hanging.

and my whole family wife, 2 daughters sang paradise city. first time I ever saw all the words. so that was pretty surprising. Ha Ha.

my youngest sang the king’s solo from Hamilton, she killed. I think it is called you’ll be back. or some such.

Yup - that’s such a fabulous disturbing song.

Looks like you killed it on the decorations, so that clearly runs in your family :smiley:

It’s like they sat down and said “what if Britain talked like an abusive boyfriend”?
I adore it. My sister fell in love with the music but wasn’t really listening to the lyrics until I pointed them out :stuck_out_tongue:
