Last weekend was fun

Saturday I had a Table Warming Party for a new table I'd purchased. Never heard of one of those? Me either. I figured that needing friends around my new table was a wonderful reason to have a party. I cooked and prepared food all day Saturday. Later, I'll take and post pictures of the welcome penant banner and a new wreath I'd made for the event. My sister will be impressed with the craftiness.

Precisely two minutes before the party started, I knocked over my beautiful turquoise egg lamp that I'd waited so long to own. The bottom was busted looking like something had hatched out of it. I propped that thing up making it look like an abstract hatched egg. There are no pictures. I was busy! Sunday, when I was cleaning up the house before leaving for church I realized I have a nice, wooden lamp that has never been used. Voila, back in business.

The party was fun. After everyone mingled and ate, the music started thumping. We moved that new table aside, rolled up the rug and commenced to shakin' our groove thangs. At that point, the guys went (and by went I mean bolted) out to the porch to visit whilst we girls were inside dancing. When everyone is getting to do what they want at a party--that's a good party.

Here's all the girls...

And some of the guys...

Whatever it is JB is hearing in this one, I'm not sure he's believing it.

I hope everyone there had as good a time as I did.

Sunday, JB came in and pointed out to me that we have our first bloom in the yard! It's a butter and eggs daffodil. What's wild about that is that Kate had been telling me about butter and eggs daffodils just the night before.

I didn't realize they were named that, much less that there were any in the yard.

I really like this bulletin board which is right outside my office at my home campus.
