began with guests getting their bling on. Here Alexis decides on hers.
Also, signing the guest book and indicating what yummy treat they brought. Here’s Jan making her entry.
And with her bling on.
Then it was time for amazing Magician Tom to mesmerize all of us, beginning with dear Carol!
My favorite photo of stunning Carol!
Pick a card…any card.
WOW Alexis!
Nibbles before dinner.
Patricia’s delicious salad.
Another wonderful salad from Izabela and Wayne.
Mushroom tartlets from Chef Erica and mom Helen.
Nino’s wonderful cornbread.
Thanks to Wayne for the only photo of my two chills. Regular and Vegan. We never got Curtis’s delicious garlic/cheese bread!
Jan has her bling on.
Time for bingo (with prizes).
Yi-Lin helped a lot.
You have no idea how serious everyone gets!
After bingo, there was Heads Up, which is always hysterical.
It’s Gelato time thanks to dear Carol!
Nino had a special moment with Somi.
Thank you Curtis and Yi-Lin…this is soooo adorable!
We all wrote wishes for the coming year.
And so, until our next celebration….
Too much for Somi…
Don’t forget to eat twelve grapes!
Little Red Riding Jan…
Nino and her bling say goodnight!
As the Nutcracker bids them goodnight!
My wishes for 2026 to be the loveliest year you’ve experienced with great health, many adventures, and stunning accomplishments! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
