Morestel and Laurie had the decorations up in no time, with the hobbit from before helping greatly below. Laurie stood back and surveyed her work with a smile of pride; the inn was brightly festooned with streamers and hanging lights. Perfect for a party of some magnificence, as she devined Bilbo and Frodo's party to be.
Cami interrupted her thoughts with the announcement to get ready, and Laurie realized she was still wearing the travel stained dress she had worn to Hobbiton and back. She thanked Morestel for all her help and excused herself before disappearing upstairs to change and freshen up.
