As of Halloween, we have been here in Fort Valley for One Whole Year.
Last Saturday we had a get-together at our house to celebrate with the congregation (and friends and family).
We asked our friends and family to bring their Favorite Fall Finger Foods, and we got SO MUCH that we had to put out another table to fit everything!
My mom also brought this delicious Pumpkin Cake for my birthday.
(By the way, THANK YOU! to all who wished me a happy one! I meant to say thank you earlier!)
We are so blessed with all the people in our lives...
And non-people, too.
My parents were able to come ...
And Bailey, of course ...
And my dad ... he acted strange while we waited for guests...
Grandma got to come, too. And I hope dad doesn't mind me posting these...
We had a really great turn out!
I am so blessed!
Happy Fall, while it still is!
What a fun party! Congrats on your first year there! It sounds like you're settled and happy!
