Oh friends – today is Fozzie’s birthday. Please remember her today and bounce over to her blog to wish her a happy birthday!
Fozzie is my cohort. – my partner in crime if you will. Fozzie is my friend when I’m having a great day or bad day. She ❤ me when I’m sweet Bacon or deviled Ham.
Fozzie is special to us here at the Hotel Thompson. We may be on the other sides of the world – but when we talk it feels like we are side by side. I can’t say enough great things about Fozzie. She’s that special kind of woman who can bring a smile to your face even though she may be suffering in pain. She’s that kind of friend that you don’t talk to for days and all of a sudden when you do speak, it’s like it was yesterday.
So from all of us here at the Hotel Thompson, we wish you a very special HAPPY BIRTHDAY! May all your dreams come true my sweet dear friend!

Earlier in the week, I got two things in the mail in ONE day. You talk about a piggy being excited and running around the house squealing – that was me! Of course daddy was mean and wouldn’t let me open up anything until mommy got home from the worky place… he’s such a bubble popper – snorts.
When mommy got home, I was walking the floors looking for her. I was kind of excited and didn’t wait for her to even change clothes before I was jumping on her and squealing. We opened my card first… piggy blushes. It was from my girlfriend Nylablue and her mom Sherri-Ellen. They are so sweet. I borrowed dad’s credit card a couple of weeks ago and sent them both a pick me upper from this winter snow. I think they enjoyed it! Plus the package had daisies and lady bugs on the boxes… I was hoping that my Nylablue would correlate that with a date we went on back in March. You can read all about it here.
Thank you my sweet purr thing Nylablue and my sweet friend Sherri-Ellen!! ❤
Then I got a package from down under – that’s right Australia from Fozzie. I squealed! Look at the goodies she sent me – and OMP (oh my pig) isn’t that piggy pencil holder/pencils the most adorable thing you’ve seen since I was a baby piglet?? Fozzie even sent my mom some Mickey Mouse band-aids. Personally between you and me, I think mommy wanted a boo-boo just so she could use a MM band-aid. They are adorable! AND, my stickers – YES! I can’t wait to use them on some special letters I’ll be sending out soon.
Thank you so very much my sweet dear friend Bev!! You rock and made this little piggies day! ❤
No trip to Tybee Island is complete without first a visit to the famous Crab Shack where their logo is “Where the elite eat in their bare feet”. Mom and dad have been going here for years – much longer than they would like to admit because it would give away their age – snorts. You can eat ‘inside’ or ‘outside’ in nature near the water amidst the wondering cats that wonder the grounds. Notice the pretty kitty in the picture to the right. That’s one of the cats that wonder around while you are eating. They don’t even beg for food… well they haven’t with mom/dad. hhmm – maybe because mom/dad make the food disappear too quickly. I’ll have to check into this.
This picture to the left is where you walk up to request a table. They were still decorated for pirate fest and it looks like one of the mateys didn’t make it past the gator – PLOL (piggy laughing out loud).
Mom and dad highly recommend this restaurant to newcomers or oldcomers. It’s a place to let down your hair, kick off your sandals and snarf down some excellent food. And if you know my mom/dad, they are creatures of habit. They always get the same meal when they go there – with the exception of maybe an appetizer or soup.
.
But before I talk about that, I have to tell you about a little stowaway they had. I can’t say that I’m surprised because I helped the little fellow jump in their suitcase – snorts. What? He wanted to go to the beach and he hadn’t seen the humans in a while. It was all in good fun.
So mom/dad found him all hidden in their suitcase so of course they had to rescue him. He was so thirsty from being hidden for the long four hours so he had to get a drink from dad’s soda at the restaurant. And of course after a potty break, he said he was extremely hungry. So mom/dad let him look at the menu so he could order first… you know being famished and all.
.
He ordered a huge platter of steamed food. I’m not sure who was more shocked when it came – us or the waitress – when he looked at it and said, “That’s mine, where’s ya’lls?” The little booger.
Mom and dad told him he couldn’t eat it all in one setting – my goodness he would be a boulder and unable to ride in the Smart car back home if he did. Upon that reasoning, he decided to share his feast with mom/dad.
.
There was potatoes, corn, crab legs, Jonah crab, sausage, shrimp and mussels. Mom described it in one word – delicious. They also had key lime pie but dad made it disappear so fast that mom didn’t get a chance to even take a picture of it!
After that mountain of seafood, mom and dad decided to take Bashful for a walk around the restaurant. I’ll tell you for a moment they thought they were down under visiting our good friend Fozzie at http://dinz1234.wordpress.com/ Of course, hers are bigger – snorts. But they were still scary and oh so close for picture taking. And yes, they are real my friends. Bashful got scared and hid back in mom’s pocket. He’s so shy.
They would actually let you feed these gators hanging out in the pond. Mom didn’t get a picture but there was actually a sign hung up that stated, “Do not feed your children to the alligators. They may make them sick.” Snorts.
