BHD 2006

Derek & I had our annual Big Holiday Dinnerâ„¢ last night, and it was a lot of fun; it's always right down to the wire getting the house ready, and there were still more rough edges than I would've liked, but the guests all seemed to enjoy themselves, and so did we. The cats didn't freak out too badly, and a couple of them even seemed to enjoy having so many Interactive Biopillows to play with.

I've got a few photos behind the cut. There are more from a couple of other photographers, but these by Ernie [livejournal.com profile] cajuncountry  are great, and the only ones I have thus far.

Nice pics, Ernie that Homeaux, does nice work! There's a vintage quality to them for some reason.

[identity profile] standardtom.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
They do seem to have a nice quality that I couldn't quite put my finger on. But "vintage" is a good way of describing it!

[identity profile] cajuncountry.livejournal.com 2006-12-19 04:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Uhm, Jayson.... he was being nice by saying "vintage quality", not saying the subject matter was "old".

Those are great -- sorry I missed it.

You'll be in 'em next year. :)

Looks like a good time was had by all. "Interactive biopillows" LOL Love it.

I see JP finally got around to giving you that hug I sent through him.

Wonderful pictures! Yay!

[identity profile] jefferzephyr.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
The ohm squeezed him tight.

[identity profile] barak.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay! You give the best huggemz!

LOL looks like hte cats were the center of attention :o)

[identity profile] standardtom.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
It's their job!

[identity profile] texwriterbear.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 02:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Ernie the master photographer has done it again.
Glad you guys had a great time. Where was my invite?

[identity profile] standardtom.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I told you about it a while back, you just don't remember. ;)

[identity profile] texwriterbear.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
You must have invited me when we were chatting on ICUII. Guess I wasn't paying that much attention to what you were saying *g*

[identity profile] standardtom.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
It's nice to know that can divert at least some attention. :)

[identity profile] texwriterbear.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
*blush*

[identity profile] bubbabearjxn.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 03:51 pm (UTC)(link)
The ringing in my ears has just about gone away from all the high pitched squeeling

[identity profile] standardtom.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you should've just stopped squealing like that, then!

[identity profile] bubbabearjxn.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah, uh huh, cause that was me. Right! No I did teach Ernie the six important words for that situation. Stomp it! Squish it! Kill it!!

[identity profile] cajuncountry.livejournal.com 2006-12-19 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I will never forget them six words either.

Great advice.

[identity profile] sparkygearhead.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I apologize. I just can't control myself when I get excited.

[identity profile] jefferzephyr.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
What a nice time Jayson. Everyone really had a great time and I want to thank you for all the toil that you and Derek put into it.

Damn...picture#3, my fingers look like thick sausage links.

[identity profile] standardtom.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
re: sausage fingers: it's all just forced perspective. :)

afterthought

[identity profile] jefferzephyr.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course [livejournal.com profile] cajuncountry is known for taking phenomenal pictures but sparkygearheadSuperScott 's image he took of Zoe as Egyptian icon is smoking!

Re: afterthought

[identity profile] standardtom.livejournal.com 2006-12-18 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, indeed. I had forgotten that SuperScott had taken that particular one.

[identity profile] vwcub.livejournal.com 2006-12-19 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
it looks like you had a great time, wish I could have been there!

[identity profile] standardtom.livejournal.com 2006-12-19 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
That would've been great! Next year? :)

[identity profile] cajuncountry.livejournal.com 2006-12-19 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey. Those ARE great pics. :)
