For those that made it to the guild anniversary events yesterday, thank you for making it such a FUN day! For those that were unable to make it, I'm sorry you missed it. Maybe some of the activities will go to being a "semi-normal" event.... yet not much of yesterday was anywhere NEAR normal. 
The events started a bit mundane... a few instance runs, including a great time in Scarlet Monestary and fun in Halls of Lightening too! The SM went well. We only lost our "bait" (sorry Whitewings!) a few times but she gained a lot of exp... and had to empty her pack at least twice and then she got even more stuff playing with the wolves over at Shadowfang Keep.
After everyone recovered (and found empty bag space again) we took a group to play with those evil hordies at Undercity. It was a BLAST! We only got to the bank area (that is one confusing place!) but it was great fun trying to keep our "bait" alive. (Who else but us would try to take a lowbie to a PvP match? *LOL*)
Next we all became lowbies over on Bleeding Hollow (a PvP server). A group of us created a handful of gnomes (yes GNOMES) all named some variation of "BoB". We had Doodlebob, Notabob, Gigglebob, Bobone, and more (as well as a human named Bobobob). The gnomes all went from IF to SW, where we got a haircut and color (pink mohawks on the guys... and pink bubblegum ponytails on the girls). Just outside the barbershop, we met our first "big" friend... a human who wanted to take a picture with us! (We were famous!). We aquired quite a following as we ran naked (did I mention NAKED GNOME???) through SW to the front gates.... What was our goal? (Besides fun, you mean??) HOGGER!!!
By the time we reached Hogger, most of us were level 2s and we had at least 3-4 higher ups making sure we stayed safe (and rezzing us when we were one shotted *LOL*) But we did it! We killed Hogger! We stayed there a bit longer and dueled each other (I love my rogue!) and then helped another traveler killed Hogger as well.
From there, we headed to Westfall where we encountered (DUM DUM DUM DUM DUUUUMMMMM!) HORDE! Of course they one-shotted all of us but we kept coming back and poking them in the toes (hey we couldn't reach higher than that!). We were joined there by Bobobob, the human. He didn't have much more luck than we did in fighting the horde... but at least he could pike them in the eye instead of the toe.
We really enjoyed ourselves being Bobs but I think the server probably was happy to see us go. *LOL*
We came back to Staghelm and finally (after 2 years of me wanting to do it) the Chicken Run. A group took my new pally to both continents! We got a level 4 (by then) TWELVE flight points! (or more.... I'm way too tired and I may be forgetting a place). We went through two horde towns, killing everything in the way and had many laughs at mid-level horde attacking me (the new bait) when there was a group of 80s standing right around me. *LOL*
Around 9 pm we met up with other guildies in IF and took several group pictures. Amazing how many not-members really wanted to be in our picture! I'm also amazed at how many guildies have a black mammoth mount! *LOL*
Once we finished making Mom (me) happy with that "icky picture", we had our first ever guild run at Mount Hyjal! I think most of us agree that we're glad we didn't try that when we were 70s! I just wish I had brought my rogue cause some of the loot woulda been upgrades. hehe
Unfortuantely I had to leave half-way through (evil work!) but it was great fun from what I saw! Anyone who stayed, please fill us in on what all happened!
All in all, (over 13 hours of guild time!!!) I think it was a GREAT fun-filled day and I thank each of you for making it such. We may lose guildmates to other games, to other guilds, to life itself, family, work, etc..... but the guild itself is stronger than ever. Twelve years and going strong. Who knows what tomorrow may bring but our family here online is forever.
Each of you guys mean a lot to me and I am proud to call you all family. Thank you for giving me the opportunity meet you all.

I will be posting screenshots once I have gone through them. Just got home from work and about to go out to eat.
