That sounds like a great day Gayle! I'm glad you got a little break from the packing!
Last night we were up past midnight getting the house ready for our company tonight. We're having 12 people total (my family) over for pizza and cards
Some of them haven't seen the house yet so we wanted it to be perfect. Some have seen it but not since we've had it painted. I just want everyone to be impressed with the work we did! My parents will be staying the night at our house whenever they get in (my dad has a house move today so he'll be lifting power lines for it and can't leave until it's done!). Tomorrow night is another Christmas party, but a fancy one! It's in an auditorium and there will be well over 600 people attending, so it will be nice to make some contacts. One of our old engineers that I really got along with well now works at that company so I'd like to catch up with her!
Here's the dress I just bought for the event (but not the color!). It came in lots of colors and I made Scott pick one... he chose dark blue. It's a shiny fabric so some of it looks bright blue when the light hits. I love it!
