| Our
party was to celebrate the birthdays of Alexandra, Caitlin and I, plus Bill's
late birthday, Joe's divorce, Josh & Emily's anniversary, Marc &
Sarah's anniversary, and any other excuse we could find. MJ came down from Vancouver, and Caitlin & Darryl were here from Virginia, which is reason enough to throw a party. They are a party. MJ & Kolja were in charge of creative lighting and went crazy with Christmas lights and red light bulbs, and Shane & David stopped by briefly to fix the front screen door, which broke just that morning. I didn't do much. I had a drink that afternoon and couldn't muster the energy to do much of anything but bake a couple pies. But I directed well. Everyone brought food and wine and beer. We'll be stocked for booze through Christmas. Plus Marc & Sarah just gave us a grill (yayy!) so Sean grilled hot dogs and whatever people brought. I LOVE LOVE LOVE everyone who was here. Seriously. |
