Autumn's 16th Backyard Fall Party

 For Autumn's birthday, we decided to go with a backyard evening fall party.

A couple of days early, I played around how I wanted to set up the decor with what I already had.









I loved how the white lights and tables settings turned out.







I forgot to get a few pictures before we started the party but here are a few after a lot went on.  Ha!


I liked how the tables turned out.  This was the table to hold the dessert - apple pie as well as the apple cider and popcorn.



Those pine cones, acorns and pine greenery - all collected for free. :)
During the movie, I served apple cider and bowls of popcorn.


A little blurry but you can still make out one of the two homemade apple pies I made for dessert along with vanilla bean ice cream.


The lighting made my photos a little blurry but still looked good. :)  I made Parmesan crusted chicken, cottage mashed potatoes and Caesar salad - all Autumn's choices.  Sweet tea for the beverage.
Rachel and I served everyone like it was a fancy meal at a restaurant and the kids loved it.




After the meal and presents, we had an outdoor movie night.  Fun!


101 Dalmatains!

It was a super fun and neat party!

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...
