October Classmate Dinner...

Front row: Cal, Mary, Deb, and Dan Back row: Donna, John, Deb, Karen and Brad

We had our monthly classmate dinner yesterday and were told to come dressed like the '70's. I figured they meant age. (Not really. lol) I wore my class ring. There were actually only two who came dressed up and you can probably tell from the photograph.

We did have fun, like we always do, and a nice bonus was that all the music the restaurant was playing was '70s music - even though we never mentioned or asked for it!

The photographer said, "Do something silly now".

Yeah. I learned a long time ago never to make funny faces for the camera. They always come back to haunt me. However, there were some who were perfectly happy to comply. I'll let you click on the image to enlarge it, so you can get the full effect of the silly faces. sheesh. lol

Deb (center, back row) brought the felt flowers and painted peace signs for everyone, and if you look at the table, she also brought peace sign ornaments that were made out of sparkly pipe cleaners. She was all-in, for sure.

As usual, we gathered at 3 pm, and like good old-timers, we were all headed home by 5. Two hours spent telling stories, getting caught up on medical and life issues (thankfully, not mine, for a change!), and eating good food. 

We've set our November dinner for the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Someone said something about dressing up like pilgrims. I can guarantee you that's not happening! I'll just take some Indian corn to decorate the table and maybe some autumn-themed cutout cookies, but I am looking forward to seeing them all again. Until next month...
