Throwing a dinner party is one of my favorite things to do in the whole world. I love to have my house all clean, set a pretty table and have my good friends come over to eat and be merry. I have to admit, I do err on the fancy side, but I want everyone to be loose and comfortable. That is exactly what happen a few Friday’s ago. And boy were we ever loose. I love creating an atmosphere where my friends can come over and laugh and not have a care in the world. We wanted to have some friends over that have really been there for Ryan and I over this last year. It had been a while since our last party so I forgot how much fun it can be. Since I don’t do any of the cooking it works out great. Ryan does the food and I have fun playing with all my dishes. Very stress free for me I might add. So if anyone would like to make reservations, we are ready!

The many cheeses

The Centerpiece

The Chef

And of course the wine
Everything looks so good! What do I have to do to get an invite? I will be moving back next summer so pencil me in for July 2009.
We really put a dent in that wine! It was so much fun. My favorite memory is Ryan challenging Catherine to a swim-off on the lake off Grant’s Lake Rd…..too funny!
Ooohhh…pretty! I like the centerpiece.
this all looks so good! i have had the cream cheese with salsa… yum yum.
Seriously…those pictures of Cody and Elizabeth from Survivor Season 2 are STILL on your fridge?
