Aftermath.

The weekend is over, I am still sore but improving (until I slipped on ice and landed on my butt last night) and Ron just came home early from work with the flu.

It was fun. Here is one photo to begin with:
Helen and Gina won the Ugly Sweater contest. (Note our new fireplace in the background. More on that later.) Extra special detail with Helen's sweater was the way she had to sway and shake to get all the "coins" sewn to her sweater to jingle. Gina's sweater was reminiscent of a band uniform. Both very special. (Said in a nasally tone of voice.)
