Party!!!
Our 4th of July party went off without a hitch. I'm know that almost everyone had fun. (You know, every party has one of "those" people) I didn't count how many people were actually there, but I know it was around 20. The day started off rainy in the morning, but by the time people started arriving it was just cloudy. It was even cool, so it was comfortable to be outside. Lots of good food and lots of good drinks, and lots of fun fireworks!!
After the majority of people left we had an "after party" and had a fire in the firepit. We sat outside and talked until after 1 AM. There's just nothing better than good friends. Two of those good friends stayed the night. We all sat around and tried to recover Saturday morning, and then D and S and I climbed into my car to take D back home. D is the proprietess of the shop where S and I buy a lot of our Renaissance Festival garb. So we conducted some business at the shop (D is going to cut down my too large bodices so that I can still wear them, S picked up two new bodices for herself and one for her mom, and D is going to make me a fabulous, tricked out new bodice). We were there until after 5 PM. Then S and I came back home (where DH had cleaned up the mess from the party!) and we ordered pizza and watched Season 3 of Weeds on DVD. S kept saying, "I need to go home by..." She ended up spending yet another night and we finished up the whole season and get through all 3 episodes of season 4 on Sunday morning! So much fun!!!
Needless to say, there was a ton of food left from the party, so we ALL over indulged all weekend long. We have now gotten rid of pretty much all of the bad for us food. I'm getting ready to get my hiney out to do my walk before it gets too hot today.
I hope you all had great weekends too!!



Sounds like a great party and a great weekend.
