The wives’ group in Mac’s new unit is hosting a taco-themed coffee this weekend. Most groups started out as coffee get-togethers; these days, a lot meet for dinner. I’m going to sign up to host one in the near future and have been thinking about themes. I hosted a pumpkin carving party at Fort Bragg, and, aside from the actual hurricane brewing outside, it was really fun. DIY painting class – instead of… View Post »
