Hosting a dinner party for friends.
Not only do I love having dinner parties
but I love the excitement of preparations
the day of the party.
The house feels alive as I work to get everything ready.
Cleaning the house, cutting fruit for the Sangria,
prepping the food, and letting it simmer on the stove.
Taking a little extra time to get myself ready...
doing some last minute primping
while the food cooks.
Dim the lights, light the candles, and put on some good music
right before the guests arrive.
Finally, toasting to a great meal with good friends.
Want to join me in my quest
to scout out happiness for a whole year?
Simply post a photo of something that
makes you wildly happy and tell us all about it.

This is the first time I see your picture. You are so pretty!
I like dinner parties, but I don't like cooking...mostly because I'm not very good at it and don't want to inflict that on others. But your party does look lovely.
How fun. Looks like a great time!
What Fun!!!! Looks like a good time!
What a lovely dinner it must have been.
What did you serve? I need an "Easy entertaining for Dummies" book, I do believe.
Looks like it was a great party too! I have always loved the decorating aspect of getting ready for a party...not so much the take down! But I really should do that more often.
How fun! I love your mirror too!
What a beautiful table setting!

Leigh- you are GORGEOUS! I love that shot of you in that beautiful mirror. It looks like a very enjoyable evening!
Your gathering looks GORGEOUS (I love your fiesta plates)! I also enjoy buzzing around the house before people come over--it's a great excuse for me to clean some. Your party looks like it was so much fun--so warm and inviting!
It looks so pretty and festive!! There is nothing as fun as a dinner party with friends!!
