Sunday

This was my life, this year

All the furniture was removed for this one of a kind evening. Friends gather around mirrors, water, flowers and over twenty bottles of wine to taste test their way to find the glass that they just could not sit down. Perhaps, we were sitting down because we could not stand up, either way the annual wine tasting party was a blast!
Had a few gourmet dinners, one being this Italian themed party. Even broke open a bottle of wine that survived my trip to Hawaii, nearly ten years ago. Oh yeah, not so much a trip but I think it was the honeymoon. The wine was bad in ten years, too. This picture shows that my friend and I had made a great time of the evening.

I attended a leadership conference in Madison, Wisconsin on behalf of the Young Leaders of Northeast Indiana. I made some great friends and learned many great things!


Dinner for Five at Six, was a big routine this year. At the Summit Club, throughout the year, I host a dinner where four of my friends enjoy a dinner where they meet new people. It has been rewarding to develop better friendships through this dinner party.



I took a plane to Florida in February, and in April to San Francisco and June to Iowa. It has been a great time seeing sea shores, wineries and corn! Vacations can be great, and these were all three both exciting and full of adventures.




The holiday open house was in the planning stages all year long. The save the date cards went out mid year and then about two months out, so everyone would know that Carbozo is THE event of the holiday season.





This summer I went to THE summer celebration of the year! Outside venue with fantastic friends, new friends, and food that was lifted from a gourmet magazine!






I also had the opportunity to be a part of Tapestry - A Day for Women! Linda Elerbee was the speaker and we sat and just munched on some chocolate at Debrands.





There was a bit of time for fun and games with my friend as we posed for a pic or two to celebrate the coming of Carbozo.



I did attend a string of concerts: Chicago, Lee Ann Womack, Mamma Mia, Sugarland. It is important to have fun while in the Fort.
