Cafe Fox!

People ask me all the time..How do you do it? I respond with I have some really great friends. It's true I do. I am so blessed to have some great friends in my life. I ask them for help and they are there..armed sometimes with food, sometimes with sponges to clean and sometimes to play with kids. I felt like a thank you note just wasn't going to cut it. I sent an evite and thank goodness they could all come.
We started the meal with Artichoke dip. Then had broccoli and white cheddar cheese soup!
Spinach, apple,craisin, walnut and feta salad with an apple vinaigrette!
Super yummy bread *from wegmans* with make your own sandwich
sunken chocolate cake with ice cream and berries drizzled with hot fudge.
I love my china but I rarely get it out. Too many little hands, but I felt this was a good time as any. Real napkins can make such a difference..and fresh flowers pulls it all together.
I really feel like these ladies brighten my day every time I am with them, so I picked out cute little candles for each of them..thank goodness they all got the kind they liked!
After all of that, they stayed and helped me clean up..not to mention Alex came in the morning and helped me get it all together. How lucky am I...not lucky. Just blessed. Love you Ladies!

How sweet of you to do this for your friends! Sure love the things you do, and you are one talented lady! I'm just beginning the "keeping up with the kids" phase. And I am beginning to understand how amazing you truly are! But I can't imagine hosting a party (w/o Larry) with the small kids at home, though! LOL! :) Sure love you!
