All Engagement Party – All the Time

by Kay~Kacey on 10/3/2011

We are all about the engagement party for our oldest son and his fiancee. All the time. The engagement party is this coming weekend. For 100+ of their closest friends…

SuperGuy has been all about the backyard. Oops! Ran out of mulch here!!

Planting flowers and prettying up the yard.

I’ve been all about cleaning the house and getting the food ready. With my sister’s help, thank goodness. She’s the goddess of big parties!


SuperGuy has washed the cars and cleaned the gutters. You know, because those needed to be done before the party… :wallbash: Why DO males go so tangential when things NEED to be done??

Anyway, with any luck these flowers will open and my backyard will transform into a magical wonderland for the party. Lots of white Christmas lights and candles in mason jars. Yes, I will take photos!

Oh!!! And my Texas Babies are coming in for the party so I’ll have all my babies here!! Cluck, cluck! I’m nesting in preparation!

Oh! And I’m already planning a retake of the photo on the truck. ™ I’m quite the happy momma this week…if a bit stressed over all the party preparations. (hold out good thoughts for good weather!)

I am sure that all the male guests will notice the clean cars (if it doesn’t rain this week) and the clean gutters as they are walking up to the door 😉

Men! :wallbash: I know it will be beautiful! And the flowers will open! Enjoy it! No one will notice any of that stuff but you. And you already know that! :mad2:

Loved reading this. But I don’t understand why you wouldn’t want the cars washed?

I guess I should have been born a guy. Because I would be washing the cars and cleaning the gutters. Gah! (sorry)
