We had a Ball

There is something broken with my Bloggy self.

I went to a fun New Years/Birthday Party last night

and did not take the camera!

 

Oh dear!

 

Sadly, Warren and several others had their cameras and

captured much silliness.

 

The event was actually a birthday party for our dear

friend Lindsay Rabe from Creekside Cottage.

She turns 21 today.

Conveniently it happened that we could celebrate

the New Year's arrival at the same time.

 

We had a ball.

Literally.

 

An English Country Ball.

 

Some danced every dance

while some of us

did just one or two.

 

I chose to do one

but it went on forever since

the music had been tampered with

to extend the "fun".

 

Well, it was funny to see everyone's faces

as the song began again and again.

 

Mikey came to the party and was

cracking all of us up with his

shenanigans.

He is such the middle child.

 

I am going to try to be a better

blogger this year.

It's so hard with all of the time I

have to spend promoting my Etsy shop

that I tend to want to be off the computer when

I'm not busy with that but I do miss

seeing what everyone is up to and the fun

of planning, shooting and posting

deliberate posts.

 

I have a major project coming up that I

intend to document and share.

Very exciting....

to me, anyway.

 

Today I will make pork and saurkraut

to get this New Year off on the right foot.

Tradition!

 

We plan to see a movie

and probably head to bed early to make up

for the missed sleep from last night.

It was after 2am when we finally headed to bed.

Most years I work hard

just to make it to the ball drop

and then head straight to bed.

 

But, this year held new adventures.

Some I am sure to regret.

Maybe as soon as Sunday morning if certain

people decide to share their video.

 

Happy Birthday, Lindsay.

Thanks for the fun.
