Shelly Carns Reduation At Casa de Suenos in Tularosa, New Mexico

 Hello All,

We had a large group of Red Hatters plus two gentlemen (Carla's husband, Douglas, photographer, and Nancy's husband, Chuck). Five ladies came from El Paso, Texas, members of the Red Hot Flashers Chapter, for this grand event. Shelly actually became 50 the next day, but, hey, whose counting??

Queen Ladybird appears to be somewhat confused!

wings and take on the magic of the Red Hat?"

I do believe a grand time was had by everyone and it was so wonderful to share this great occasion with the ladies  of the Red Hot Flashers Chapter of the Red Hat Society from El Paso, Texas. Shelly Carns is now officially a Red Hatter, but she now has the task of finding a new Pink Hatter for our chapter. She received many lovely gifts and advice cards from each Red Hatter in attendance.

Our server, Dominic, took such good care of us and even jumped in and helped Doug take pictures of the event. The food was delicious, as always, at Casa de Suenos. We are never disappointed there.

This is all I have to say for now.
