Centerpieces of sunflowers and red tulip bulbs and candles. The bulbs were used as a creative tablerunner

Very Martha-ish! Very clever-ish Jane-ish!

Table settings were set on the coolest coffee table. Notice the ice bucket in the center of that table. Filled with drinks…

Very cool!

As if the friendship, food and fun wasn’t enough…

all the women received pashmina wraps on the back of their chairs.

Very sweet! Very useful on the beautiful Fall night!

The men received red tulip bulbs to plant in their gardens….

Very cute idea! Very exciting!

Tulips are one of my favorite flowers. I can hardly wait to plant them!

This wonderful celebration proved getting older can be VERY fun…

Happy Birthday! Mike :)
