Happy 2006 to everyone! As usual, we like to bring in the New Year with a little style, so our destination for the night was the Loft. There we were gathering at Dan's house where we got warmed-up...

HPIM1213
Hey Gabby, did ya remember to bring a plastic bag? :)

HPIM1215
No, we won't be getting into any trouble tonight...no sir!

HPIM1216
Not midnight yet guys! :)

HPIM1217
Jack-and-Coke was our poison for the night.

HPIM1218
I wonder what I would look like with hair like big Long's!

HPIM1218aa

HPIM1219
Holly and little Long made it this year!

HPIM1226

And Smiley brought down the house with some hippady hoppady music...

HPIM1227
...turn it UP!

HPIM1227b
Even Solomon was scratching (note for my non-hoppady friends: no, not himself, I was referring to the record...)

HPIM1228
And so for the whole night we drank, danced, cheered. Instead of molesting each picture with senseless commentaries, I will reprive myself for the remaining shots (well, unless I could not help myself)
