Saturday Night Birthday Party @: Kouri’s Pub

by MBIP


Before we officially start this week’s Saturday Night blog, we need to start it on a Friday afternoon. My friend Marie is celebrating her birthday at Kour’s Pub on Saturday and she was nice enough to invite me. I wasn’t sure what to get her, but then remembered that we’re both friends with Julie who owns and operates Moon Dancer Boutique.

I figure I can go to Moon Dancer and have Julie pick out the present. That way if Marie doesn’t like it, it’s Julie’s fault, not mine! So let’s head on over to Moon Dancer Boutique!

Here we are at Moon Dancer Boutique and they’ve painted the outside! The place looks beautiful! Let’s go inside and go birthday gift shopping!

I went in and took a few photos, then as I headed towards the counter I got a big surprise!

It’s Marie, the birthday girl herself!

Julie wasn’t in yet and Marie was behind the counter! Well, I let her pick out her own present and this way we know that she’s going to like it! That was too funny!

Okay, now we can officially start our Saturday Night blog!

Live, from Peoria, Illinois, it’s Saturday Night starring this week’s host, Kouri’s Pub and featuring special guest stars, Marie, Melissa, Christie, Geoff, Betsy, Greg and Ellie.

Now please welcome this week’s host, Kouri’s Pub!

Here we are at Kouri’s Pub on a chilly Saturday evening. Summer is officially over so let’s get inside where it’s warm!

Here we are inside of Kouri’s Pub. Now we need to find Marie’s birthday party!

The centerpiece of the front room is the large square bar and there’s the half dozen beers on tap.

There’s tables and large screen TV’s off to one side and gaming machines on the other side of the bar.

There’s the specials listed up on the wall.

I still haven’t found Marie’s birthday party and I’m guessing they’re back here in the beer garden, let’s take a look back here.

There’s a bar over here and I think I see the birthday party at the table over there in the back corner!

Yes, there’s Marie’s party and they all posed for the MBIP Camera.

They are, from left: Melissa, Christie, Geoff, Betsy, Marie and Greg.

Great to meet all of them and now let’s keep this festive night going!

I gave Marie her birthday present and of course she liked it…she picked it out!

Ellie was our pretty and friendly waitress for the evening and she told me that she’s a fan of the MBIP blog and she reads it every day! I always love to hear that!

I love the firepit back here and took a couple photos of it in all of it’s lit up glory!

Meanwhile, back at our table, Ellie is delivering us two orders of chicken wings!

We got an order of the medium heat wings and the sweet and spicy chili wings. They look fabulous!

Both styles were really tasty and delicious. They have fantastic chicken wings here!

Happy birthday, Marie! Thanks for inviting me to the party and I hope this is a wonderful year for you!
