First supper on the new terrace - beautiful!

  
Totally fun eating our first meal together on the new chapel terrace.  Such a lovely evening, and this space is really going to get a workout in upcoming weddings for our special couples.  It looks to me like a great place for a guestbook table, cocktail hour, or just plain sitting down and visiting.  We are thankful to have it.   
  
Chapel is getting all cleaned up this morning, and let the setup beging for the big event this week!  We adore this couple, and they've put a lot of thought into their wedding, the look, and the feel.  We love the attention to the asthetic with these two, and they seem absolutely perfect for each other. I mentioned yesterday that creativity is a theme...we get to do the vintage linen overlays that we've enjoyed for parties and another wedding as well. Denise even found some great fabric in the attic of the main house yesterday that's getting woven into the tablescapes for this event.  Neat!  Doing some gardening today, and hopefully planting my veggie seeds so that they'll be ready at the last frost....whenever THAT is this year!  Maybe we've already had it, maybe we havent....hmmmmm.   
  
Taking it a moment at a time, and letting Him direct.  Our agenda, our assignments, asking him to help with healing and our thoughts...  It's wonderful to be immersed in His Spirit as often as possible.  Blessings to each and everyone today for great thoughts, great deeds, and genuine peace.

This stained glass window welcomes everyone to the chapel kitchen! It was one of the first things we bought when we were building the place, and the colors and pattern are just right for our look!

We get to see some brides and grooms all the time, and it's really fun! Supper at Hettie and Chad's last was no exception. They're house is coming along beautifully, and it's fun to be involved!

Tea Ladies doing their thing. Lynda, Karen, Lisa, Emmy and Susan are supping and dining on the annual tea fare at the chapel. Hats are looking pretty great here, and everyone wore one! Way cool!

Who says the Consigliere doesn't work hard around here?!? Here's our hero making sure the world is safe for white bread sammiches! I love Samantha's super classy hat look here! First tea for her!

Check out this tea party, fun-dango kinda shot! Clearly, again this year, hats were required, and there were quite a few of them. From picture frame hats to fascinators, colors and shapes abound!

It is to laugh........... The ladies say that they're coming to the annual tea party for tea, sandwiches, sweets and sparkling beverages and conversation. ...It's really for the CHEESEcake!

Happiness as a couple is palpable with these two. It was an honor to have their wedding ceremony at the chapel, and an even greater honor to have performed the rite. Art and Sue are a delight!

Totally fun teatime for the ladies! Everyone dressed in hats and sipping away. They loved the raspberry cocktail almost as much as the tea! Outstanding day that was all about Mrs. Boss's posse!

For those of you 'in the know', this chapel is truly our Joy. This is particularly evident in this photo of Samantha about 2 minutes after getting married. Mrs. Boss knows how to express joy!!!

This has GOT to be one of my favorite photographs ever posted on the Chapel blog. Jolene took this arial shot of the outdoor place settings at Jess & Sam's wedding, and it's beautiful! Def our look!
