Big Day, Big Doughnut, Big Delicious Dinner!

Graduation Day was just beautiful, held outdoors with perfect weather. The next day we had a graduation party. We made the cake ourselves and I think it turned out pretty cute.( Decorated by Raya. )



With the extra cake batter, I decided to make a "little cake". When I took it out of the pan, I said "This looks like a big doughnut.", so Raya worked her magic and WahLah-A Big Doughnut!



I traded some sewing of curtains by me for some catering by a very talented friend. It was so delicious and so great not to have to prepare the food. The party was a success.



I thought I would take a few pictures while the place is all tidy and decorated with flowers.





My favorite deck chair:





Later this week-Collection Reunion #3.......

HI!
Know that is a serious place to relax!
Yo and Raya make a great team!!! The cake does look just like a dohnut and the cake is fabulous!

Oh, almost forgot! Can you stop by tomorrow? I have some very BIG NEWS to share and it requires my friends help! It is fun and Raya will want to know about this event (if she does not already !)
Hope to see you tomorrow!
Hugs,
Mary

Raya loves donuts. But then again, who doesn't? Now we will have another baby who will love donuts like we do...
