I am just really amazed at how well everything went. My husband told me that I did a really good job at having everything ready for when they got here. Of course, he helped by cleaning the garage and basement and getting tables and chairs from the church. We entertain quite a bit and are used to having quite a few people over, but Saturday was so much more than we're used to. But we did it!!! Would I do it again? Probably!!!

Maybe next time you'll have a little more time to prepare and that would cut down on the stress.

Actually the only thing that made it stressful was turning around and having another party the next day, even though it was only 16-17 people. I was just too tired to visit and be a good hostess but they understood that I was tired.

We have 12 people in poor mom's house if it is just her kids, their kids & husbands. When our brother & sister have families or my kids start to we will have to rent a hall just for a family dinner.

Oh thanks, Mandy! ---Last seen sinking into a huge bathtub filled with hot water with oils and rose petals--soft music in the background and candles scattered all around the bath tub.

I didn't worry too much about getting things back to order yesterday. I did a little straightening, but mostly took it easy. I'm in no hurry to get everything done.
