September was just here and now its pretty much done. This was a very busy week with the two 30th Dogwood Anniversary celebrations with the Tea on Wednesday and the BBQ Dinner last night. Both events were spectacular and fun but working special events is EXHAUSTING! Last night we were worked off our feet. Judy, Chris and Nancy and I were running around like chickens. What an initiation for Chris and his inaugural Dogwood Special event. Both the tea and the dinner was catered by Centennial High School but we had to rent all the dishes etc which meant we were cleaning off the food and stacking dirty dishes and cutlery on top of all the other tasks. On Wednesday we had entertainment by our Songsters choir group and the Drama group and last night it was a full concert by the Mop Tops who act and sound like authentic Beatles...so the music was great and lively and all the important dignaries came out to an awesome evening. No doubt...tired as hell as the end of the evening.
This morning...we woke up when Chrissy was heading out to work. Had to return some carafes we had rented. Did the Wings deposit and then off to find dessert for the party we had been last minute invited to. Thank goodness Sharon suggested the Valley Bakery as it was their 50th Anniversary celebration and all their speciality squares were 50 cents each!!
Then because the rains had not yet arrived...Darcy and I wandered around Chinatown for a couple of hours...had lunch at Hons...it was fun being tourists for a little while.
