While not a huge fan of New Year's Eve bashes (as the calendar struck Y2K, ODA and I retreated all the way up to a secluded cabin on a frozen lake in Maine to sip non-vintage bubbly in peace), I had a blast ringing in 2007 with pals at Micki & Harley's lovely wedding at the NYC Fire Museum!
Maureen and Tina "sign the guestbook" in the digital photo-booth
New Year's Eve paparazzi spotted our own celeb, Matt - all the way from the Kaw River!
Tina poses with Matt's better half, Melissa (also back in town from the flatlands of Kansas)
The true stars of the evening, Micki & Harley, dance and eat (because they heard that you forget to eat on your wedding night, they hired their own waitress just to make sure they were fed regularly -- BRILLIANT!)
And as the clock strikes midnight, Ned contemplates a resolution...
Laura & Bill mingle...
Maureen & Matthew dip...
Tina shakes her thing...
and Don toots his horn.
HAPPY 2007!(But wait, let's not forget what good things came in the form of media in 2006...)
