Saturday morning...woo hoo!

What a party!

I mean, seriously, WHAT A PARTY!

You know how sometimes you give a party and afterwards you think I wish I would have done this and done that?

I can't think of a single thing.

Everything was totally perfect.

BUT I'm tuckered out.

We went to a soccer game this morning at 8:30 and then to visit some cool relatives at my parents and I am really wanting to just sleep the day away...but that's not going to work BECAUSE we have another party tonight AND I'm going to meet my daughter to get a mani-pedi and maybe another up-do AND we are going to have a little party here tomorrow afternoon cooking pizzas in the wood-fired oven AND...

I ate a tiny piece of left-over cake and I think I am hopped up on sugar.

One more thing before I show you photos, K?

Tomorrow is my first SPONSORED GIVEAWAY on my blog! I am sooooooo excited cuz I get to share a cool prize with you all AND if I do good they will let me do it again with a bigger prize! The giveaway will be all week but I just wanted to remind you!

And I gotta run but the girl in pink is our oldest daughter and her husband...the funny look nerds are our son and son-in-law (with the tennis racket) and the guy in the white tux is my Dad ...












I'll be back tomorrow to tell you about the giveaway and hopefully put up a few more photos!

Thanks for coming along for the ride!

  6. Oh Jenny sweetie...
    You all look as though you had the time of your lives. Imagine sharing such a special day with your sweet Daddy. I love it, truly I do.

    Love the airplanes, where is this here in the valley? I love it. What a perfect touch, and no wonder you wanted the little airplanes for the tables.

    I love your DIL and son in their jackets. They really fit the bill. And look at you and your Daddy and DH. You all look so great.

    I can't wait for you to share more pics of the event. Show us some of you all cooking those pizzas on the open fire. Sounds wonderful.

    Country hugs and so much love...Sherry
