{greek feast part 2...}

... finally I got the pics, but they ain't what they ought to be! I wish I would have taken more, that I would have brought a different lens, & that I could have collected myself enough to get one of Cooner with Prissy or me with Prissy or ANYONE with Prissy!!!! O-well coulda shoulda woulda I guess. Just trust me- that it was a HUGE success!!!!!!!!

*****

"The Program"

{printed by Mrs. Miller and ripped & burnt by me :). She died laughing when she saw them- I think she is starting to embrace my clearly psycho ways- ha ha!!!

*****

...I decided to make these little place cards Sunday night about 11ish. {Joey said he was scared about Prissy's wedding & the levels that I might go to... And I think he may be on to something- ha ha!!!}

*****

Cooner, Prissy, & I made these little party pics for our dessert tray...

*****

...and it was YUMMY FABULOUS!!!!

{NOTHING was left over when it was over- which I believe translates to a SUCCESS!!!}

*****

I opted for fancy over functional... and don't get Joey started on that one either! I can't tell you the # of hand towels that are for "show" & not to use {unless you're a guest} around here. But.. the kiddos LOVED the fanciness of it all!!!!!!! Needless-to-say I refilled some cups a few billion times :) !

*****

My brave Achilles... and I mean BRAVE. Here she is reading her clues to the "who am I" game in front of 60 parents & guests along with the entire school. She did FABULOUS!!!!!

*****

{Medusa & Artemis}

JC's momma & little sister {who just happens to be one of A-man's buddies}. They are SO fun- I love that they dressed up too!!!! And YES I made Artemis a place card too- she hugged my neck about 100 times. She calls me "Miss Ashly Harris, Ashton's mom"- ALL in one breath! I love her to pieces!!!!!!!!

*****

The 3rd grade class singing "On a Mountain named Olympus"- I know every word thanks to Prissy!!!!!! And the A-man does too, but he won't admit it- ha ha!! Did I mention how GREAT they were? THEY WERE AMAZING!!!!!!!

*****

Here is part of the food table. Cooner helped scape the entire thing & it was fantastic!!! We had the real deal in terms of Greek food. I now know that I LOVE it- who knew???

*****

Gracie's mom made the cutest cheese & fruit platter complete with gold silk & spray painted snakes- LOVE IT!!!!!!!!

*****

The kiddos also have been working tirelessly on art for the Greek Feast. We displayed some of it so the parents could see as they walked in. I could have picked out Prissy's without help... hers was the fanciest with the MOST accessories!!!!!

*****

Did I mention that my Prissy was SO great? She WAS!!!!! And did I tell y'all that she promised the A-man that he could "keep" the new sword & shield? He LOVES the whole idea of the Greek Feast!!!!!!!

*****

Cooner picked up these "Ancient Greek Ruins" at a tag-sale. They were a BIG hit too. I raided her storage shed when we went home for fall break. She is the ONLY woman I know who has 20 gold chargers, 50 clumps of fake grapes, & enough columns to decorate an entire church. I want to go on record by saying "I'm sorry" for ALL of the hoarding jokes over they years. She really came through for us on the Greek Feast!!!!!!

GOOD JOB Achilles- your momma is SO proud of you. Through this entire Greek study you have proven yourself very loving, very kind, very respectful, very joyful, very patient, very good, very faithful, & with MUCH self control. I see A LOT of Jesus in you & everyone else does too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
