Working with Carolyn on these church activities has given me a new appreciation for the amount of time, energy, and other resources it takes to stage a successful party. Carolyn spent days and many trips to the local dollar stores to find something that was very pretty yet tasteful and economical.
It's amazing to me how even paper plates and cups, and plastic silverware can still come off as clasy, especially if it means that much less clearning.

As they say pon the society page - a good time was had by all. Somehow Carolyn pulled off another miracle by staging an adult activity for our ward. The music was oldies and other tunes you can dance to. And the food was planned potluck. Guests were invited to bring food that was red, pink, or white and many of us also dressed in that color scheme. The DJ, who wanted to contribute his time and expertise, played music that everyone seemed to enjoy whether they were dancing or just conversing on the sidelines.
That was hands-down the best church dance that I have ever been to. Carolyn did a bang-up job, and should be proud of herself.
ReplyDeleteLooks amazing. btw The title of this entry reminded me of one of Gavin's books. It is about various monsters and one page says the following "hearts and stripes, pinky sweet (look to other side) spots and dots, stinky feet" Now Jenny always emphasizes the stinky to Gavin by holding her nose and saying P.U. Gavin figured it out a couple weeks ago and now holds his nose when we say stinky :)
