The weekend before Memorial Day, Christine had her "Nautical Bling" birthday party at her beautiful home, Rose Cottage, in Greenport, NY. Dress code was nautical bling, which was interpreted differently be each person.
The weather was warm and sunny for the most part. It clouded up a little, but got sunny again and stayed that way. Rain could have been an issue as nearly 80 people were coming.
Christine, who is an artist an set stylist, has a beautiful home and garden. With the help of her family and friends, it was even more beautiful for her party. There were umbrellas and tables and lamps outside making cozy corners to talk or take photos. The food was under a roofless structure with gauzy curtains around it and a chandelier in the middle.
Jeff set up a photo booth, where everyone posed for the camera and took funny photos near the food table. Nearly 600 photos were taken that night at the photo booth. It was interesting to see the different poses people chose.
The night got a little chilly, so someone lit a little fire. Christine made a fish soup for everyone at around 10 p.m. People put on their sweaters and ate their soup near the fire.
The next day, there was a brunch in the backyard and more fun. I had to get back home, so I hopped onto the jitney while the others left for brunch.
