An overview. I set it up in my family room. I really wanted an arch, but could not figure out how I would get one, and then I saw the TV trays and remembered the 7 (probably reduced more to 5 or 4 by then...I've used some of it) yards of off white lace I bought when our Jo-Anne's was moving, and created this beautiful arch.
Kathleen checking out the buffet table...fried bread and candied apples.
Violet was the greeter. Here she is standing by the arch.
Kaya and Felicity come in. I did Lissie's hair. Isn't it pretty in an upsweep?
A view through the lace. I finally got the stand to cooperate so it looks like Destiny's walking.
Molly was one of the first arrivals. Here she is standing by the Summer Flowers Festival sign.
Addy and Josefina (Queen of Flowers 2006) waiting to make their enrance.
The five guests (minus Violet...she had to greet the Queen of Flowers) waiting for the Queen to make her entrance!
Addy and Josefina!!!!
I love this picture...it's more focused on Violet than Addy and Josie, but it makes Vi looks so real.
Kathleen helping Josie off with her coat. Doesn't Josefina look real in this picture?!
Addy by Kaya.
Everyone with Queen of Flowers 2006!
"Hello and welcome everyone! I am Josefina Montoya, and the Queen of Flowers 2006. I am here to award the Queen of Flowers 'mantel' if you will, of being Queen of Flowers 2007."
*clapping and cheers*
"And Queen of Flowers 2007 is........"
"Kaya'aton'my!"
"Me?" Kaya gasped.
"Yep." Josefina grinned. Kaya made her way up on the stage and stood by Josefina.
Josefina with the sash and tiara (OK, it's a straw hat, but it works!)
In the sash and tiara!
*clapping and cheering!!!!*
Everybody!
