Hell-o Everyone,
Its hard to believe, but a little over a year ago my SO found out of my cross dressing.
I would have never dreamed that she would be helping me organize a TG dinner party at our home.
The whole idea was initiated on our last night out with friends in San Francisco. That night she had told everyone at the table that they should all come to our house for dinner and a sleepover. There was no way I could let that NOT happen!
In the process of getting ready for a house full of people, shopping for this and that, I had mentioned that I would like a new dress to wear.
We shopped together, I'd pick out a few and she'd give little impression of which one she liked best. Strolling through the store she picked up a dress and I could tell she was really interested in it. (and she's not a dress wearing girl) The dress wasn't on sale, and I'm a budget shopper, so I opted for one of the ones i picked out.
On the anniversary date (at least what she thought was the correct date) of her finding out about me, she had the day off, and I had to work, so she headed into town to do some shopping without me. When I came home from work I went to our bedroom to change out of my filthy work clothes, and what do I see hanging in the closet? Its THE dress!!! All I could do is laugh in disbelief, but what a wonderful surprise.
I love this girl!
So we're all set, the day of the party finally arrives, and she helped me write a list of things I needed to do before guests arrived. Next thing I know she's off to the store to get a few final things, leaving me home ALONE to prep all the things on the list. AAAHHHHHHH !
I'm checking the clock, knocking items off the list. But the one thing she didn't put on the list was for me to get my girl on.
I'm still working on the list by the time she returns, frantically trying to get them all done, and she asks me "Are you getting stressed out? and then she laughs, knowing I needed to shower, shave, and get dressed. I said "hell ya I'm a bit worried", but kept working.
I finished that list, and was ready for guests with time to spare. (at least enough time for some Sangria)
So the first to arrive was Jean 103, followed shortly after by AllieSF and her friend (and my new friend) Nilani. Suzanne F, and her awesome wife Beverly finally made it up the driveway (it is a challenge).
And with a knock on the door, another new pair of friends, Nadine and Jules Spirit joined the party too.
We all drank an endless supply of wine (I do work at a winery) ate some appetizers, and chatted up a storm.
With a little prodding from my SO, it was time for me to start cooking dinner. we served a crushed peppercorn encrusted filet mignon with a creamy green peppercorn aupoivre sauce, along with a twice baked potato, and a medley of oven roasted veggies. There were quite a few members of the clean plate club! Desert came in the form of individual molten chocolate cakes served with flour de sel carmel, and chocolate chunks swirled in French vanilla ice-cream.
After dinner, there was more wine (a lot more), and eventually we had to say good night to Nadine and Jules (I wish had stayed).
The party carried on, and Suzanne brought me in one of her wigs to try on. without anyone knowing , we slipped back to our bathroom and I became a redhead. we rejoined the party and were sitting chatting when Allie walks in and sees me for the first time as a redhead and ask's "Oh, and who are you?", my SO is sitting right there and immediately introduced me saying "This is Julie". So I became known as Julie the rest of the night.
The party ended up on the front patio, where we sat and chatted (at this point I have no idea what we talked about), but we were up till 5:30 in the morning!
Eventually we all found our way to bed and got a few hours of sleep. I think I was up around 9am, quickly threw "Julie" back together, and got some coffee going. My SO came out shortly after, and started brunch, we all sat, ate, and chatted some more.
After a little play time with the motorcycles, it was time to say goodbye to Allie, Nilani, Suzanne, and Beverly.
Jean stayed, and we drove to our second home where I put Jeans talents to work (Thank you Jean). we drove back to the party house and Jean spent another night with us.
Thanks again to all of our guests for coming, you are all truly the best!
Now I know what you've all been waiting for……SOME PICS ! With everyones permission here they are…..
