These two went to their company Xmas party will Grandma Liz got to be with Willa and I went over to see what Ryan and Hillary were up to.

Ryan invited me in for what he described as a good time rock and roll floor raising!
We got a good start and now he and Hillary can take it to the finish line in the next few days.

We are slow but we are GOOD!

The reception for Brian and Mary Cathers wedding was at Semple Mansion in Mpls

Started with drinks and choir entertainment, then explored the many nooks and cranny's before we went upstairs to the ballroom for food, wine and the PARTY! Saw lots of old friend too.
