Invitation
Here is the invitation I'm doing for the party. Lots of work, but I'm a good portion of the way done with the 80 or so I'm doing. I should be finishing most of them today so I can fully enjoy my trip to the Tulip fields this weekend ! Our favorite B&B in La Conner awaits ... ahhhhh, I am SO ready for some jacuzzi time ! I'll take pictures there ( not in the jacuzzi,so don't worry ;) ). It's so beautiful in April and I've heard that the tulips are in full bloom !

Pffffft...
Truth be told, I've been swamped. With party planning, work, life ...oh, and whining, being sick and just the usual periodic unhappiness that comes with being 40. OK, so a little more than forty, but who's counting ?
Next week I'm going to get part 2 of a haircut I started back in January. It needed to grow out in order to " make it interesting " as Jennifer puts it. Anyway, I'm going to get a little zing of blond back too. I think it's my version of a mid-life crisis ;) I can't really afford the new sportscar or new wardrobe. I'll settle for something outside the box.
The 50th Anniversary party is coming along. Here's the cake I think we've decided on ... YES ! It really IS a cake ! Entirely edible, from the chocolate slab base, to the white chocolate rings on the binder and photo corners. Cool, huh ? I've decided to do violets on the tables, and do a simple centerpiece with them as the feature. I read somewhere that violets were the 50th Anniversary flower. Go figure. For lack of a better idea, I'm going with a gold and violet color scheme. Am I crazy ? I think it sounds wonderful *
I've been gathering balloons, engraved napkins, photos and other party stuff. I'm doing as much as I can NOW so I can manage the stress of it all. Any ideas about the party or planning or anything else are welcome ! Even if you just want to drop a note to say Hi . I'd love that. Really. I'll post the invitation I'm making soon. I only have 80 to make !
Wish me luck !
