Yesterday our BBQ Queen 🫅 Amanda celebrated her birthday 🎂 with sweet little Reid!

Reid pampered her as his school “Salon Day” for early Mother’s Day by painting her nails 💅, decorating her hair with festive clips and a fun 🤩 craft! It didn’t stop there!

Reid kept the celebration going as he had his 🕺 dance 🪩 recital rehearsal after school for the dance she choreographed for his class. (Yes, she teaches dance too).

The Smokehouse had a great night and did a wonderful job with the big events we had booked!

We’d say that’s a pretty dang awesome Birthday! 🎁

Be sure to check out the cool new neon sign on the bar wall - the staff chipped in together to have it custom made, it’s just gorgeous! What an amazing gift!!
