Well, sometimes we just have too many party ideas and too little time! Every year we have a Kentucky Derby party (complete with hats, mint juleps, betting and singing My Old Kentucky Home). This year, we also wanted to have a 60s party send-off for Diana and David, who have decided, sadly, to move to Hillsborough to be closer to town (we are definitely a rural community). So we combined the two events, which made for some interesting costumes.
 |
| Mike, Betsy and Joyce - Mike has had his peace medallion since the 60s! |
 |
| Anne and Glaeshia -skirts and dresses! |
 |
Glaeshia, Meg, Joan, Joyce, Karen and Karolyn looking very festive.
We tried to get all the guys for a photo too, but no luck! |
 |
| Watching the horses getting loaded for the race |
 |
| Karolyn is adorable! |
 |
| Mary, David, Diana and Glaeshia |
 |
| Evey was having a grand time! |
 |
We did an Elderberry Trivia Quiz.
This is the team that won (Karolyn David, Dave and Richard)
Dave has both a long history with Elderberry AND a great memory! |
 |
| Jon - classic 60's!!! |
 |
| David - very dapper!!! The suit was from some costume event, but the hat was actually from a wedding! |
 |
There was 60s food too - fondue, casseroles and (my favorite) potato chips and Lipton onion soup dip!
This was one of our less healthy meals! |
 |
Karen and Stewart had the winning horse and won the pot,
UNTIL the winning horse was disqualified and Betsy won the pot!! |
 |
| Diana, Glaeshia and Joyce working on the trivia quiz |
 |
| Betsy, Mike and Mickey were a close second on the quiz |
 |
| We finished off the evening with dancing to 60's music. Wild night! |
