What a Pleasant Week-end! Lynn came over on Saturday in perfect time..I had just finished laundry, beds and vacuuming and was ready for a snack when Lynn arrived. Lynn hadn't been over in a long time,s o we had a good blab over lunch while Silky and Co-co had a run around and a visit. Emil was off at the fishing derby,so we had the afternoon to ourselves before eating dinner and heading over to Deb and Ashley's, then to Balfour for "The Dance"! Morgan's brother , Wilbur and his wife, Ellen organized the private party, and judging bythe turnout it was quite a success. Everyone brought a snack and their own refreshments and then donated $5.00 at the door to help pay for the band. Now the band was right out of the history book. In fact,they may have been the same band that played at our wedding! Too funny! But funny or not, for two guys, they put out a lot of sound with their big ol' saxaphone and an accordian player who used a keyboard for melodies and special effects! Both fellows sang, and usually after 40 or 60 seconds, you recognized the song as something from and era or two ago, but the sound ws big , and after a few trial songs, they figured it out...most people wanted to jive or two-step. From the Chatanooga Choo-choo to LA Bamba, they kept everyone dancing all night. It was good fun,and thanks to Wil and Ellen for inviting us all.
We first stopped over at Deb and Ashley's for some visiting before the dance
Lay down your head and you'll see Morgan getting Joyce's new knees all warmed up on the dance floor!
I think it ws this happy old fellow's birthday, because he seemed to be the centre of attention...especially after he borrowed Morgan's cowboy hat and did a dance with it on!
Morgan, just getting his hat back,and him and Wil having a hell of a laugh!
Will and Ellen, dancing up a storm!
Deb and Ashley checking out the table loaded with snacks that everyone brought. It was a yummy selection food from shrimp rings to meat and cheese trays to KFC.... all pretty darn yummy.
Linda and old "Horse face" as Ed called himself since donating his pony tail to Cancer
