This weekend was action packed. It started with several of our members attending a class in Nonviolent Communication on Saturday. Then Saturday night we had an AMAZING 60th birthday party for Meg, and Sunday we had a full day of meetings and a tasty potluck dinner.
Meg's party was an absolute blast. She said for her birthday she wanted 60 songs. So the 30 or so of us at the party found many creative (and competitive) ways to sing songs and parts of songs. Even a couple of our gents who are generally pretty reserved were seen rockin' and rollin'. We had percussion, keyboard, ukulele and trumpet..... and a lot of a cappella.
Birthday girl Meg with her partner Kelly, toasting the birthday with a tasty drink - champagne with elderberry liquor!
Kelly, who has a beautiful voice, sang a lovely, romantic song to Meg -
and most of us were terribly teary-eyed
Below.... Kelly, Anne, Carl, Joyce, Marj and Amy. A mix of Elderberry folks, Potluck Farm folks and area friends came for the party.

Two delicious birthday cakes (and a bunch of people)!
The music was a riot. Mickey not only has a great voice but is an awesome ukulele player and led us in a game where we had to come up with songs that contained a particular word. Michael serenaded us with his horn.

Richard and Jim - looking all too serious :)
We EASILY hit the 60 song mark! Mickey kept track throughout the evening.
Dave in a very rare moment did a very short dance!!!
