Ring In The New.... Throw Out The Old.... Not Exactly (12/8/2012)
Noel and Sue have bonded
Downstairs the chef is busy
The Meeting Is Called To Order
Upstairs the Pres kicks off his last meeting
The board studies their notes.... Difficult to do when the great kitchen smells are waffing up the stairs
Appetizer guards are on duty
Great question from the board... The new president listens carefully
Ah... Err.... Daa... Ah.... Do you hear something down the hallway??
Noel is practicing her math
We Head Downstairs For Dinner
A beautiful table is set
Magnificent tree... But wait, where are the decorations??
Firebugs at work
The visiting continues
Oh oh... Where did Noel go???
"This is MY couch! Right, Mommy??"
Ask Adrienne, it's a long story
Deep discussions underway
It's lonely at the top....
Wine discussions underway
Who is in the line first????
All is looking well.... Not too panic!
Maybe a little panic is appropriate?
"Out of my kitchen!"
Bob to the rescue... all is well
"Here's too you!"
Adrienne reminds us not to throw food....
Smiles all the way around
At the "kids table"
There are Starlighter's somewhere nearby
The line forms....
Leon was first
The whole table to himself....
A beautiful cake... Zero calories
Tummies full... Next years planning begins
"Pssssst... Leon, there is chocolate inside!"
Coffee and cake.... Two of the essential food groups
In the kitchen work is underway
Stories continue
Dead soldiers
A super view of the valley below....
