Wow! What a fabulous day!
My friend Susan busts her buns over this party each year. And each year she worries about how it will go. Will everyone have a good time? How will we raise enough money to send back to China for all the Waiting Children? Should she sit down & eat or should she socialize. I'm glad to say that this year Susan sat down & ate. Yes. She still worried about everything, but at least she wasn't passing out from hunger by the time we got home last night. All the girls were exhausted but fighting sleep. Somehow we managed to stay up & watch Perry Mason. Man! That movie was old!
My friends from S FL were at the party too. All of the children had fun running around, screaming & playing. They looked great in their Chinese finery. There was an arts & crafts table where the children got to make Chinese lanterns. There were vendors selling their wares. And, yes, I purchased. Oh boy did I spend money! I can't wait to show everything to David. You know that he's going to look at me like I'm nuts. But the money all goes to a good cause.
Since I'm away on vacation right now, I can't upload pics but I promise to upload some soon.
