My son and daughter-in-law hosted a birthday party for both myself, and my DIL's Mom, and a 'Tropical/post cruise' party to exchange photos.  We had marinated chicken,hamburgers, smashed potato salad, couscous, and veggie kebobs. The cake was chocolat-banana with coconut frosting. Also we had a fruit tray. Here are some shots....

the festive decorations.....

the colorful flowers.....

the tableware that said 'the lower the lattitude, the better the attitude'!!

the pina coladas and banana daquiries.........YUM!!

the delicious fruit platter.....

and the priates of the 'caribbean cruise' cake....
