The last few weeks in August Greg and I had been spending. a lot of time getting the yard looking good before Natali's open house on September 6th. I don't think our yard has ever looked better. The Friday before and day of the girls and I cleaned the house and got everything ready.
Natali arrived with Migel and his family a few hours before and helped us with the final touches. Of course I didn't take pictures of everything but we moved most of the furniture out of the family room and kitchen to make room for people to talk inside.
We took this picture before putting in the mango ginger ale - yummy.
I also failed to take a picture of gift table/Jenga guest book.
I hired Amelia Walker to decorate the counter then I filled it with all the treats I had been making and freezing over the last three weeks. We also had fruit and chocolate covered pretzels.
It turned out pretty nice, yet simple and we had a steady stream of guests. It was lovely to chat comfortably in our house and just enjoy our friends and family.
And then all the wedding stuff was over...what a wonderful but crazy wedding filled summer.
