Party Recap...
I volunteered to hostess a table at our Annual Women's Tea at church. I had to provide everything to decorate the table and bring a little something to eat. It turned out so much better than I thought it would, because up until the night before I thought for sure it was gonna be a disaster! After about a month of religiously going to thrift stores looking for mismatched dishes. Thank the Lord it all came together!
Party Highlights
Best Moment
Seeing my table all put together and seeing it didn't look like the disaster I thought it would be in my mind a few days before!
Most Touching Moment
Having people admire my table and cakes and them telling me I have a "real talent". It is wonderful to hear considering for the last 28 years I was convinced I got skipped over when talents were being handed out!
Funniest Moment
Dropping and breaking a cup in front of the other 30 women decorating their tables and having the entire room stop and say "Awwwwwww." I was red. I don't like being the center of attention. Especially for making a fool of myself.
