Confirmation

We had a busy weekend as it was the weekend our son was to be confirmed in the catholic church.

Luckily, many of our family couldn't attend, since they live out of town, so we just had a small gathering.

I ran around like crazy on Friday and Saturday trying to get everything together!

Since confirmation was at 6:00, we had a little party at the house before hand. I think it turned out pretty nice.

I served:

Platter of three cheeses

Boiled shrimp with remoulade sauce

Proscuitto wrapped asparagus

Roasted eggplant spread

Fried chicken tenders

Hot spinach artichoke dip

Cheese straws

Honey roasted pecans

Marinated olives

Nut Bread

Cake

I made a Raspberry lemonade, and I mixed up a batch of my favorite Firefly Mint Tea vodka with some lemonade, for those of us that felt the need for something to take the edge off! ;)

Here is son with his 89 year old Great grandmother! She is amazing. We hardly ever get to see her because she is always traveling somewhere around the world!

This morning the last of our guests left and I spent the day cleaning and putting things away!

Yesterday the weather was rainy and humid, today it is rainy and around 55 degrees! I love this cool weather! What's it like in your neck of the woods?
