So Debs has finished her thesis and is nearly ready to hand it in. She said she was going to have a365 party but hey surprise parties are better.... So look through your albums and find something to bring, cakes, drinks, balloons, presents, party food... I'll start the party with some cupcakes.
Oh! I have nothing to bring except a massive "Congratulations", a huge "Good Luck" and possibly her own Dancing Pumps of the 1st June which I still absolutely FAV.
I have to add that scrolling through all these, it's a marvelous array of food, drink and great entertainment (that runs the spectrum!) @newbank This is one heck of a party! What a perfect way to spend the weekend!
Wonder pup has arrived, in costume, to crash your party and help you celebrate your wonderful achievement (and eat as many of your goodies as possible). You are a Wonder Woman!
My successful-defense-of-my-dissertation celebration involved a fair amount of alcohol consumption! :) I'm bringing enough to share! :) Congrats, Deb! All that hard work has paid off! :)
@newbank First of all, Ruth, you are such a star for thinking of and organising my party, what a very fine idea and the most perfect surprise when I woke up this morning!
THANK YOU,THANK YOU!
@swilde@ethelperry@grammyn@genealogygenie
Balloons are essential for making it look festive and then for popping when everyone has too much drink later! Thank you for coming!
@annied I cannot believe that in a photographic community nobody brought a camera to the party - too beguiled by the food and drink and the idea of getting naked methinks!
I am late as always! However I am sure that you won't turn away a lady with Edinburgh Gin on ice! Congratulations Debs. Parties can last longer than one day when there is such a celebration.
Wow, wow, what a fabulous surprise this was yesterday morning when I woke up. I really was so touched by everyone's response and words of congratulations. You are all magnificent and so supportive.
Now I wait for the examination process to complete, then I can graduate as "Dr Deb" as one of my friends calls me! I will be the first person in my family to have such a title.
So thank you all again for your wonderful contributions (some great shots here) and have a grand week!
*fingers still crossed during the examination period* Just so you know, you very much enjoyed the shot of bourbon (or two) I enjoyed on your behalf this evening! ;) Happy to take that one for the Dr. Deb team! ;)
At some point of the night at any party someone has to get naked, so with that in mind...
What's a party without a creepy colourful clown . . ?
This was a pastry wrapped Brie cheese with raspberry and walnuts...
Congratulations! Take a little time to relax with us!
Congratulations! That's quite an achievement!
oh that has made my day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So glad you made it :)
congrats Debs...
Trying to find anything to bring and this is all I got. I don't do food photography. Really should try to more.
THANK YOU,THANK YOU!
Now on to thank all the guests!
