Party Planning


"Who practices hospitality
entertains God Himself."

Our home smells and looks good. I'm telling you one of my sweet spots is fluffing and foofing my home and I have had fun all week! I'm off to the grocery store now to begin the cooking part of things. Downloading new "porch music" (Dean Martin, The Police, Eartha Kitt, Rod Stewart...) to my iPod later. (Music is a huge part of hospitality in my book). I'll try to remember to take some pictures of our birthday party for you. Right now I have at least 14 candles on our porch and I'll be adding some later! Perfect weather, lovely friends, and "entertaining God". I never thought of it that way. But it's a beautiful thought.

THank you friend. You just put into perspective for me, my job this weekend. I am NOT being hospitable to the people at the Getaway, I am extending God. In the hurry scurry, I lost a little focus. Thanks for realigning my sights!

We usually thank dinner and/or overnight guests for honoring us with their visits...

It makes them feel good and expresses how we feel about a successful event.

And, if all goes well, we thank God for helping/anabling all to go well.

And if it hasn't gone totally well, we try and thank God for letting it go as well as it went.
