A Fun Day

Yesterday, I hosted a work party for my friend Karen's daughter Kimmy, they are busy with preparations for a summer wedding. The bride to be, her bridesmaids (the one's that could make it) and with few other friends, we worked on some of the projects that needed to be completed before the wedding. You know the saying... many hands make light work??


At least I think that is how it goes, but if not, it applies, so let's just go with it...



But of course we had to have lunch first...






Brought a few spring flowers in from the garden,


Thought I would try and be the photographer and get the girl's reflection in the mirror. Unfortunate about the glare, but the sun was coming in the window and it's not as if I could go somewhere else to take the picture...



A little something to drink...

A few decorations to set the mood, and a chocolate cake thrown in for good measure.


A few cupcakes made with the extra batter.



And a kiss !

  7. Joy, it looks just beautiful! What fun, and what a wonderful friend you are. Not just to a few of us, but to all of us. You work harder than anyone I know, but yet you'll drop everything to help your friends and make us feel special, help us out, or just visit when we need to. You're a blessing in my life and so many others.

    Love,
    Sheila
