Backyard Picnic Open House

The picnic theme continued for the Idaho open house celebrating Sariah's and Brett's wedding. It was held in August in our backyard. It was a smashing success thanks to the efforts of many friends and family members. My sister, Margy, and daughters, Cami and Elly, helped with the amazing decorations.




Jim decorated the pool with floating flowers and worked in the yard for hours all summer to create a beautiful setting for the event.


Several wonderful friends spent lots of time in the kitchen keeping food on the table.

The weather couldn't have been better. We'd had evening storms a couple of days before and for several days afterwards. What a blessing! Brett and Sariah seemed pleased.


We enjoyed visiting with each and every one of the about fifty guests.

We parents couldn't be happier.

After the open house, we watched Sariah and Brett open their gifts.




Great gifts for a great couple after one exhausting but totally fulfilling day.
