Neither Wind Nor Rain....

Remember those flowers I gathered in Heigh-Ho To The Mountains We Go?  Well, here is what we did with them:

 By no means are we florist...we just had fun creating centerpieces for an engagement party we hosted on Saturday.  With a hurricane battering the coast 3 hours from us, we had some frustrating moments as we tried to get these done along with setting up tables/chairs, etc.  Clouds loomed in the sky all day, gusty winds whipped around us and we even had a couple of rain showers.  Even with the weather as fickle as it was, we managed to set up this outdoor area:

 Finally, later in the evening, we were able to enjoy a Lakeside Supper (with no rain nor wind) to celebrate the engagement of one of my former Kindergarten students!!!! (talk about feeling old...lol!)  Congratulations Jon E and Lisa!!

Heigh-Ho To The Mountains We Go!!

Yesterday, two friends and I traveled here

Mountains near Morganton, NC

to gather these (and more) at a friend's mountain home

to make flower arrangements for a Lakeside Supper we are hosting this weekend!

When all the flower gathering was done, we gathered these

for an afternoon treat!!!

Ahhh, I love the mountains!!
