What Rhymes with Chihuly?

Somehow we got invited to Dale Chihuly’s gingerbread decorating house party at his boat house this weekend.

This over-the-top party featured an 88 ft. table (made from a single slab of old-growth fir) packed from end to end with gingerbread houses and decorating candy for all the kids. (Even the Jewish ones!)



The space was beautiful. Look at the ceiling. ( Try to ignore Clay's weird facial hair.)



The kids begged us to let them swim in his pool.



Even the fish in the aquarium have their own glass sculptures. I wonder if they get nervous swimming so close to something so breakable?



Hopefully Mr. Chihuly didn't notice how much candy our family consumed and we'll get invited back next year. Plus, we didn't break anything and that's gotta count for something, right?
