New Year's Eve Party
I'm posting this here because apparently there are a few people who I haven't added as Facebook friends. My apologies if this is the first time your seeing this. No one was left out intentionally. Everyone is welcome. Please RSVP below if you're not on my Facebook friends (so I can add you to my friends list).
We're finalizing our party plans, and hope you're able to make it. (And of course to those of you who have already confirmed, we're looking forward to seeing you!)
If you haven't already, please remember to update your RSVP so that we can get an approximate head count. I know you've been waiting for a better offer, but you really aren't getting one. LOL
If you don't know until the last minute that you're able to make it, please come on out anyway. There will be plenty of food and drinks to go around. Don't let indecision keep you away.
REMINDER --
The party is from 8:00pm - until...
at our house:
5 Greenbrook Court
Trophy Club, TX 76262
Sing-along, Piano-bar style
Games, Mingling, and More
The dress code is CASUAL (but not sloppy...you know who you are)
A FEW EXTRA DETAILS --
If you need to reach me (817-821-0786) or Jon (972-489-5168), well, I just gave you the numbers. Text or call, or you can reach me with a Facebook message, or an email. Or you can reach me by air-o-plane...I don't care how you get here, just, get here if you can. Sorry, got lost in song there. I'm warming up my vocal chords already
There will be an OPEN BAR, with a bartender serving beer, wine, and mixed drinks.
To assist you in drinking responsibly, there are hotel rooms reserved at the Hampton Inn, Alliance Area, and we will have a shuttle running between the hotel and our house. Contact me for a confirmation number.
Parking is sometimes an issue. We may either have valet or shuttle service to a different parking area. We'll finalize those details when we get a more firm head count.
