Ooh la la A night In Paris

Keep going down the hall..................................

Here we go...........................

As promised I am going to show you some pictures of my son's 8th grade dance. I was on the decrorating committee.It was alot of fun and hard work! There was only about 12 of us and we worked many hours starting Friday right after school was out until the dance on Sat. night at 7:30 p.m! The above picture leads you down the hall and into the gym!

Which leads you to one of the banners I made.

Then you enter the gym! There is the other banner I made. 8' X 20'. It was huge!

There we have a 17 ft. Eiffel Tower! That took about 6 hrs to put together with hot glue! We don't know what to do with it now. It's ashame to dismantle it but who can store it is the problem!

This was the bistro area!

The food station.
The drink station.

And last but not least...The park bench scene. Ooh la la! The kids truly enjoyed their night in Paris! It was fun working on this dance! In a couple more years I'll be doing it again for my daughter! Just a reminder tomorrow I will draw a name for my 100 post giveaway! If you have not commented on that post ...go ahead an do so!Have a great day!

A Work In Progress....Ooh La La

I'm on the decorating committee for my son's 8th grade dance at school. The theme is A night in Paris! This is right up my alley!I love France! My husband is French!Oh La la! Anyways,I'm in charge of the banners. I'm working on the above collage and still have more to add. I will show you the finished product when it's up at the school. This banner is 8'x4'! It's pretty big but my other banner will be 8'x 20'! Super huge! I'm going to attempt to paint the Arc De Triomph! I'm a little scared.Lol! I will keep you posted and show you my decorations as they emerge!

Bonne' Journee!

A French Garden

All day yesterday and last night and I believe today has been and will be raining. To say the least it's been dreary,damp and cold. I've been spoiled the past two weeks with wonderful warm,sunny, Spring days. We need the rain it's good I know but it does seems to change your morale. The sun is the best medicine for us all!My mother in law is leaving today. It was truly wonderful visit! I feel bad for her though. She brought in the snow and now she's leaving with rain! She keeps saying that Paris is always raining and grey. She's not looking forward to going back.I think that Paris does get a long rainy season before the summer comes.Anyways I would like to share one of my most favorite photos I took in a Paris garden a few years ago. This brings so much sunshine and delight to me when I see it! I love the painted concrete wall and the contrast with the overflowing flower baskets!It's amazing and an inspiration of how I would love my baskets to look like.This is my sunshine today!Wishing you all a happy day!
