Thunder and lightening and Showers of happiness all in one day!

Saturday moring was ominous and raining hard when i woke up, i had planned a Bridal Shower for my Daughter in law to be Donna.
I frantickly checked the weather channel all morning hoping it would be clear before 3 in time for the party.
It was , so I ran on to the deck and decorated like mad, set up the serving dihes in the dining room laid out the untensils and got the ballonns and streamers up.
Ran up or I should say craweled upstairs to shower and change in time for the first guests to arrive.
Peg brought a super yummy pounch, along with her personal male stripper Neil.
Got alot help from one and all putting out the trays and the lasgna was done just in time as well.
Guests were scattereed on to the back declk as well as in the livingroom and diningroom, games were played mke as many words out of AAron and Donnas nmaes my cousin Pat the Editor won that one that was a given.
The second game was very funny trying to carry a small potato between your knees across the room and drop it into a cylinder.
Caroline and Pat and Darlene won that one , Amanda did excellent as well.
I ran out of gifts going to get one for her for Friday when I see her again.
Presents were opened and the gifts were terrific Donna was thrilled and delighted at the amount of people that came.
Special thanks once agian to Peggy and Marie, Lisa and Isabell and Donna Gos for all thier help and for Serena doing her part as well.
So glad my Favoriate aunts and my mom were all well enough to join in the festivitis's. We missed Mary ann who was in Florence battleing her way thrugh torrential rain to a fourth floor walk up bed and breakfast , whose door code would not work after an ardous journey from Rome by train and then trying to hail a cab in Florence in the rain.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, ONE AND ALL!!!!!!!!
