Friday
Friday night we attended an “end of an era” celebration. My neighbor was mayor for 3 terms (9 years) and he just passed the gavel to the new mayor. He’s ready for the next chapter and we are excited to be a part of his life as we see where it takes him. We took several pictures but what happens on the patio stays on the patio. HAH!
Saturday
Saturday morning I hosted a brunch with a group of sixteen homeschool moms. The brunch was so much fun and low-key. I provided the space, beautiful depression glass dishes and mimosas. The other moms brought delicious food and helped me clean up.
It’s not a brunch without mimosas, right?! I’m forever grateful to have a home that is perfect for entertaining.
Saturday Night
Saturday night I co-hosted our first annual wine-tasting party with our new neighbors. I say co-host loosely. I invited the people. My neighbors did everything else. It’s been really fun having them as neighbors the last few months. We get along really well, they have 3 boys, and the husband is a wine distributor. They are a perfect fit for our neighborhood. I look forward to many years getting to know them!
Charlie and I went through our list yesterday. I think we ordered 20 bottles. YIKES.
The majority of the bottles will be “special occasion” bottles. We won’t be drinking them very quickly!
WOW, a neighbour as a Wine Distributor! Let me know if he ever w3ants to move north – LOL. You and Charlie are quite the “social butterflies” as they say – 3 parties in 30 hours. You must be pretty tired by today.
Luckily this is not the norm. We are exhausted.
I can imagine. We only had Communion in the morning, helped get the room ready for Advent dinner, went home to make scalloped potatoes, and then went back for the Advent Dinner. That was tiring enough. Mind you, you 2 are a lot younger than us and more physically fit. This week, we are getting ready for our Annual Christmas Party for 40 – I’ll let you know how we feel next week.
Oh, by the way, that pink and green dress looks very nice.
