Week of parties

This week has been non stop parties with our Relief Society birthday party then a Chili Cookoff Branch party. Fun food, entertainment and socializing.We combined two branches for about 100+ sisters to celebrate. We sat at tables according to our birthday months-thus mixing us up and giving us a theme to decorate with for our tables. We had Hawaiian Haystacks for our main course! It was yummy!

Tables were decorated by months-this is July!

September here with apples and pomegranates, 

October fall colors made up this table setting.

Thanksgiving them fit perfectly for November. 

June and spring colors are the them for this colorful table.

This table was May flowers with soft pastels...for spring!

Lots of work but lots of fun and visiting went on.
