Valentine’s Day Dinner pt 3

As the couples finished their meals catered by Sonesta Gwinnet Place and the Muna Coterie Valentine’s Day dinner began coming to an end, the couples continued to talk and laugh with each other over a glass of wine.  Mr. McClenton continued to serenade them on the flute and Daniella shared with the group how she met the love of her life.

Race Car Theme Birthday Party

His classmates also welcomed the change in routine. I don’t remember if any music was playing but there was lots of dancing, running and jumping going on.
