A friend of mine made this floral arrangement for the party. The beautiful pumpkins are my granddaughter's handy work. Britt didn't have any votive candle holders so we pulled out these glasses to use.
A friend gave her this beautiful old jug with the fall arrangement in it. I love this!
This is a picture of Britt, almost in tears. She was very touched by the gift she was opening. Her aunt sent her a surprise. She did some pencil sketches of Mackenzie and Jack.
Aren't they wonderful!!!! I can't begin to tell you how much Brittainy loved these. She had one of her friends help hang them before they left.
And this, is me and Britt. I gave her a Keurig coffee maker and enough coffee to make about 160 cups of coffee. That should hold her for a while!!!
take care,
Dawn

Hi Dawn,
You are such a sweet mother to have done this! I love your photos especially the one of you and Brittany!

Good morning Dawn. I LOVE your happy post today. A beautiful center piece to share and the candles look great in the wine glasses. Cleverness just follows you around Dawn. I am happy for Britt to receive such darling sketches of her children A special gift for sure. The coffee pot and coffee would have made me happy too. A good idea. No one should do without their morning coffee. Most of all the photo of you and Britt is priceless. Just beautiful Dawn. You both look so happy and now I'm happy too. LOL.

Hi Dawn, What a nice housewarming party for Britt. I know she felt so loved. What a neat way for her to get a house too. The sketches of the children are so special. I know they'll be handed down in the family.
