Huzzah to Ashley for stepping up and making me the flier for our upcoming guests later this month :)

And huzzah to Ashley and Taryn for footing around Baltimore passing some out :)

Huzzah to Debbie for cleaning up the kitchen, to Jeff and Jackie for helping haul straw out of my car, to Jeff and Wayne for then loading boxes into my car, and to everyone else who helped clean up yesterday :)

Oh and to Will and Caryn for closing up the Grove space.

Huzzah to Ashley, Taryn, and Kelly for a wonderful Samhain Rite and BEAUTIFUL decorations around the Grove today.  It felt so festive!

Huzzah to Caryn, Dominick and Will for helping to clean up, though I do not know who all pitched in so I apologize if I didn't mention you.  I know a lot of folks were running around.  What a huge amount of people.  I had 29 recorded that stayed the entire length of the Rite, and I can think of at least 6 more that either went inside or had to leave early.

The auction alone raised us $297 for the Grove and our charity event.  Big Huzzahs to Ashley for her amazing artwork she auctioned off.  I can see that and Caryn's capes being huge items to sell in the future.

I know we got at least $150 more probably in the cauldron not counting just regular donations.  Caryn can probably give better totals.

Happy New Year!

I just sent in my payment for my auction items through Paypal.  I never saw a place on the paypal form to leave a comment about what the payment was for so, wanted to post it here. :)

Debbie and I were up to our elbows in dirty dishes for a bit as well. ;)

The artwork and the capes, most definitely and Wayne's wife's woodworking artistry, too.

I'm definitely interested in all three.

I'd like to add a Huzzah to Crystal for the wonderful drumming that accompanied most of the ritual!

Huzzah to Will, Caryn, Phoenix, Chelsea, Wayne, and myself for attending Chelsea's lovely Einherjar rite.  It was very lovely :D

I wish I could have been there but my reason for not attending is this little person laying in my bed like a Princess.

Thanks so much, could not have done it without you all. I really felt the presence of the fallen and the gods.  It was very moving for me and proud that we had the opportunity to remember those brave individuals.

Huzzah to Wayne for his awesome trilogy of bardic contributions in this quarters Oak Leaves!  I just read it and they are wonderful.  Way to make CedarLight proud :D

Also CedarLight got a lot of positive endorsements in the Trillium article, I may transcribe them later.

Lots of Huzzah's today :)

Huzzah to Barry and Debbie for tackling the first (and biggest) round of dishes.  Huzzah to Debbie, Crystal, and Jess for tackling the remaining dishes.

Huzzah to everyone who helped put food away like Ashley and Taryn, to Chelsea and Jim for bringing yummies, to Jim for cooking his lasagna and to Jess for cooking.  To Debbie for sweeping up, and whoever else I might have forgotten :)

We definitely need more people like the ones above who actually participate and don't just come to eat food and leave shortly afterwards without bringing any of their own or helping out afterwards.
