It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

Thank you to everyone who crossed their fingers yesterday for good weather for my husband's work party.  Remember the song from Mr. Rogers Neighborhood?  Am I dating myself??  Well that was the song that kept playing in my head yesterday.  The weather was absolutely perfect.  The rain they predicted didn't show up until 5:30pm, and since the party started at 12pm, the timing worked out great.

This was when they were still setting up for the party.  We had almost 100 people.

 Only we would have our landscapers show up two hours before people did to bring in new mulch.

 We had ordered it earlier than this, but with all the rain, 

this morning was the first time they could get here.

Don't you love how great new mulch makes everything look?

 We learned our lesson after the first year hosting this party.
 With 100 people... rent a portable bathroom.

However, what a trick it was for the guy to get it into this position.  

 But this wasn't your typical gross port-a-potty.  The interior was nicer then some people's home bathrooms. It was air-conditioned and had music piped in as well.

There were two bathrooms which was also helpful with 100 people.

Look how cool the sink looks!

 In addition to the regular caterer, we also hired a pizza guy.

 He was cranking out pizza for hours.  He makes his own dough and uses only the freshest ingredients.

Honestly, it was the best pizza I have ever had.

 One of the guys who works for my husband made this cake.  

He did such an awesome job.

I love the roses on top of the cake.

It was a wonderful day.  

The weather being beautiful really helped tremendously in the success of the party.

Have a great weekend.
