So here's to a birthday celebration/pre-New year party! Cheers to a wonderful New year! A couple of days before my birthday, I emailed everyone an OC version of the map to my house and confirmation of all the attendees. By Dec 29, I had 14 confirmed attendees! Whopee! 85% confirmation! By 4PM the house was like a well oiled machine, everyone had their own task in making sure that everything is perfect that night.
