Last night was the Special Olympics Christmas party. It was held at Northern Pines Resort in Butternut. There was great food, and everybody bought cakes and holiday cookies for dessert. The company Jukebox Hero provided karaoke entertainment for the evening, and we all had a great time. I actually got up and sang two songs: Hank Williams' verson of "Kaw-Liga" and Simon and Garfunkles' "Last Night I Had The Strangest Dream." Jerry Smart dressed up like Santa Claus, and I brought my camera and took lots of pictures. I'm going to have to re-read the instruction book though because most of the pictures are coming out fuzzy and I think the problem is with me; I'm probably not doing something right.
