Time to Laugh, Time to Cry

Before the party...

This is the only thing I helped with!

Supplies for doing a scrapbook page

Strawberry Cake with pull charms

Smiling bride, bridesmaids, and flower girl!

The cafe was the scene of a Bridesmaid's luncheon today.  It was
hosted by my sister in law and her daughter for a friend.  Laura is my niece's
friend (the one I did the invitation for), and she is in the wedding.  They
did a great job; it was all so cute.  The guests did a scrapbook page for the
bride, enjoyed some lunch, pulled the lucky charms in the cake,
and cried when they read a letter from the groom! 
Congratulations to Laura and Oliver...Best Wishes!

Time to Plan a Party

This is the "before" picture!

I painted this sign on an old window 

Here are the tables

Some red, white and blue blooms

Condiments labeled and ready to enjoy

Lots of old fashioned soda

Striped straws and Mason jars

Cute decorations in the trees

Sunset on the bayou

I have been down in south Louisiana, helping my 

daughter celebrate her husband's 30th birthday. 

My daughter really loves to design and decorate, 

so she had a great time planning and pulling off this 

celebration  She used a patriotic theme, with 

vintage and rustic elements, using burlap, 

tin, glass, and paper products. I painted the 

sign on an old window frame, and we added the 

red, white, and blue flower.  She hung mason jars 

with candles in the trees, and lanterns and burlap 

decorated the tables.  We enjoyed gourmet hamburgers,

with "30" different toppings, and drank our beverages 

out of mason jars.  Apple pie and a red, white, and 

blue strawberry cake finished off the feast.  

She is really interested in pursuing some of 

this party planning 

in the future.  She can carry out a variety of themes, 

and is willing to work in any setting, etc .   If you are in 

need of some ideas, and would like to hire her, 

just let me know!
