THE PARTY WITHIN

 

Jennie opted to have her picture taken next to the hearth with Clyde and Trixie rather than outside cuddling with a metal zebra.   Hannah and Link, basking in love and proving that marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.

 

CROKINOLE, BEER AND MIMOSAS

 

The layout of our new home is perfect for hosting many activities at once.  Lyle lent us his Crokinole board and it is quickly becoming everyone's favorite game to play in the dining room at Trouts Farm. The living room and office are perfect spots for conversation.  They are divided by a gas fireplace which opens up into both rooms.

AFTERNOON PARTY AFTERMATH

After all our guests had gone home, we noticed Trixie and Clyde, passed out on the dining room table, obvious victims of too much revelry.  Afternoon parties often end in this way, after dark, with blissed out party-goers sprawled about.  Our new neighbor, Susan made us this  beautiful dried flower arrangement from her garden.
