Our friends, the Copelands, called today to find out what we are doing for the New Year’s Eve celebration tonight. The last few years we’ve all hung out together but this year is a little different as Mrs. Copeland (ok, Amanda) is pregnant with their first child. Very exciting! While that leaves Erik with a designated driver for the night we unfortunately hadn’t heard from them the past couple of weeks so we didn’t get to invite them to the private party we’ll be going to this evening. A good friend is one of 4 hosts (all male) throwing a great bash so I’ll be leaving work shortly to go get ready and put on a fun “gown” for the evening. It’s actually a 2 piece outfit but it looks like a full length gown of sorts. Michael will be dolled up in his tuxedo. He really does look good in one.
Anyhow, the flashback portion of this post refers to Dog-o-ween (yes, the dog version of Halloween). We’ve attended this charitable howling good time for several years with the Copelands and this year we did a group costume. I’m sorry to say that we didn’t get our photos all together but here are a few of the shots of our disparate group which was supposed to be the Village People. We all got on stage for the competition with a boombox blaring out “YMCA!!!!”
This is our group of dogs: Charlie (cowboy), Daisy (as a cow), and Jake (the Indian). Married with the sailor, policeman, and construction worker we had a full crew. If I can get PhotoBucket to stop screwing up my size edits I’ll get the others on here in a day or so.
Back to his holiday and a Happy New Year to all!
