2020 has been a difficult year because of Covid 19. Everyone is strongly encouraged to social distance and avoid crowds. I wanted very much to have a Xmas Party to invite dancing friends over to see our remodeled house decorated for Christmas. I had to invite only close friends this time around but am keeping fingers crossed that Covid will be gone by next Christmas and I can then invite more friends.
Hosted below are a dozen videos, 4 of the house and 8 of the Xmas Party at my place on December 18, 2020. Everyone had a great time even though we missed our fellow dancers. The ladies in particular had a wonderful time dancing with Gary Weidenmoyer, a PRO Dance Instructor.
Lawn & Front Screened Porch Hope to improve Xmas decor for next year. Guess Tom and I need to start earlier to put up more lights. Tom's Media Room Loved how the huge Xmas Tree looked from both inside and outside because of the extra wide Bay window. Guests at Dinner Yoko with Guillermo, Victoria with Tony, Leanne and Gary at the long dining table and Tom with Cheryl and Tom at the round table enjoying food, wine and conversation. Hustle - Victoria Crowley with Gary Weidenmoyer Victoria having a great time dancing Hustle with Gary as evidenced by the smile on her face. Foxtrot - Cheryl Isola with Gary Weidenmoyer Cheryl having a wonderful time dancing Foxtrot with Gary. She must have enjoyed being dipped at the end of the dance. Tango - Victoria Crowley with Gary Weidenmoyer Victoria love dancing Tango and was thrilled to dance with Gary. | Foyer & Living Room Happy with how everything looks in my entrance foyer especially the altar that Tom built me. Margaret's Ballroom The "ballroom" with attached bathroom at one end and full kitchenette/viewing area at the other end is custom built for the convenience of dancers. Tango - Leanne with Gary and Yoko with Guillermo Leanne danced American Tango with Gary while Yoko danced Argentine Tango with Guillermo. Margaret was also on the dance floor with Tom Isola dancing American Tango. Salsa - Margaret Hicks with Gary Weidenmoyer I really enjoyed dancing Salsa with Gary even though I just had 2 Salsa lessons from him. Waltz - Leanne with Gary Weidenmoyer Leanne dancing Waltz with Gary later on in the evening and having the dance floor exclusively to herself. Foxtrot - Margaret Hicks with Gary Weidenmoyer I didn't particularly enjoy dancing Foxtrot until a few months ago when Gary became my Dance Instructor. |
