Those who know us best are very aware of our love for a "celebratory cocktail." We love to celebrate every momentous occasion and have even been known to celebrate some more mundane things. Moving abroad did not stop our love of toasting with a nice gin & tonic in hand. We made it through another week of work -- celebratory cocktail. We ran 12 miles in 98 degree weather -- celebratory cocktail. We did not get the trots after eating street meat -- celebratory cocktail!!
Lately, we have had a lot of fun "celebratory" occasions happening in our families. Despite being thousands of miles away, we still join in the festivities (whether they are being celebrated at home or not) by making a nice drink and saying a little cheers in honor of those we love the most. Don't think that it is just some catch-phrase we use. No ... when we say, "We will have a celebratory cocktail in your honor" then by-god, there will be one in your honor!

| When sisters get new jobs -- we celebrate! |
 |
| When nieces have their first birthday and little brothers pass the quarter century mark -- it's a celebration. |
 |
| And when sisters (and nieces) say "yes" to adding someone into their family (Ryan) -- we CELEBRATE! |
