It was my mum's 60th Birthday party. She had a Wild West themed party.
Great fun and it meant I got to introduce
wolfie_sara to everyone. They all loved her :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) And she liked them:) :)
So, as usual with this sort of thing, I rifled through my wardrobe to find a costume. Leather waistcoat, chinos, fedora, cowboy boots. Shame I had no holster. Wolfie dressed as a confederate. As a reenactor she was dismayed that she didn't have exactly the right hat. As a costumer, I thought it looked great.
Fantastic party. Looooaaads of food. Live music and we had a barn dance with a caller and everything. Dad running around like crazy getting all the food sorted (I think he enjoyed himself really). Dancing was fun. People beaing really really bad at it was also quite funny. Wolfie did well, although was offended that she had to be the girl. Immediate family all dressed up and so did most of the friends.
So, all oodles of fun.

lol at dancing bit - you couldn't have ofered to "be the girl" just for a bit?
(I was going to say it would be chivalrous, but then get mental images of knights being girly and it all goes a bit strange..)

I do feel weird dancing as the Girl. Especially when you own more makeup than I do. (I knew I should have donned a natty little moustache. XD )
Did you go and see your Mum Sunday night? And pass my compliments on to your dad re the delicious salmon?
