Farewell to Carell party

Tanner is a HUGE "Office" fan.

So are most of his friends.

Tanner, Kade, Dmitri, Tyler , Sean, and Dalton. (Dean came later)

Steve Carell is the star of "The Office" -or atleast has been until his departure this past thursday- so we had a "FAREWELL TO CARELL" party at our house.

There was even a litmus test. You had to know all the characters by name in order to be invited. Only SERIOUS office fans were allowed.

They ate dinner. (I had to take out a loan & Brent had to barbecue a few thousand chicken legs to feed 7 teenage boys.)

Laughed about their favorite episodes from "The Office".

Speculated about who would permanently replace Steve Carell.

And watched his final episode.

They even tolerated a few pictures from this obnoxious, blogging mother.

I am so gratified to know the caliber of young men Tanner chooses to associate with. Some he knows from church and some from school.

You know they are a good bunch when they leave their shoes at the door out of respect for our home even if we don't ask them too.

And they bring cake for dessert.

and they leave around 9:30 (the LDS ones) because they have seminary the next morning. Clearly they have their priorities straight.
