I bought some "take away" gifts for friends when they went home, something to have with their coffee the next morning.

I told Ron I wanted both a pumpkin Kahlua pie and a Kahlua Pecan Pie, it just doesn't feel like the holidays without them.

Ron is the MASTER BAKER!

Here he's chopping up stuff for the dinner salad before the guests arrive.

The house is ready, but it's summer so it's still light at 8pm.

I bought some necklaces and glow in the dark bracelets for the festivities.



This is our stereo cabinet and a place to display treasured photos.

And we didn't need the air conditioner, the day before it was 95F!

I love having friends around my dinner table!

Chicken basil pasta with garlic bread. It's summer so we wanted something light.

Robert can tell amazing stories!



Nothing makes me happier then friends around my dinner table!

Ron and Michael

Ron's Kahlua Pumpkin Pie and Kahlua Pecan Pie! I've died and gone to heaven!

On the balcony with champagne to watch the fireworks!

The fireworks are not put on by the city, but privately shot off from rooftops, all around the horizon they go off!


I'm a lucky guy!



There are no cabs on XMas eve and New Years Eve so Alberto brought his bike to get home!

Good friends! Life is good!

The morning after! It's worth it!

These are the glow in the dark necklaces I bought.

I bought these confetti canons to shoot off and I TOTALLY forgot to bring them out! Argh! I guess we'll have to shoot them off for my birthday next month!
