Last month our Church celebrated the birthday of the women's organization that is called Relief Society. My responsibility in the church right now is to plan meetings each month for the sisters to get together and do something. It can be spiritual, physical, fun, educational, etc. Anything that will help us in our lives. But since March was the anniversary of the organization, we decided to have a
Birthday Party!!
I usually work along side another sister and together we come up with ideas for these monthly meetings and make them happen. She came up with our theme for the party:
Birds of a Feather Flock Together
With that theme, and springtime, in my mind, I created our invitations/posters for our event!
As the ladies entered the church that night they were greeted with this sign directing them to our "pre-dinner mingles". The sisters were able to talk and visit with other women that they may not know or don't see very often. (Of course we had some fancy drinks and yummy popcorn to munch while they mingled!)
Our tables were adorned by birds nests in different shapes and styles of jars. (The president of our organization made all of our nests. They were a perfect center piece!) Each place had a little favor to take home after the party.
Our party menu consisted of individual homemade chicken (of course!) pot pies with a puff pastry on top. They were the perfect size and oh so yummy.
We also had 2 options for salad.
What Birthday Party would be complete with out CAKE. We decided to have a Birthday Cake table! We asked 6 ladies if they would make up their favorite cake for the party. (Samples of each were being served onto numerous plates!)
Everywhere you looked we had placed sunny daffodils and and birds to bring our theme together.
It turned out so fun and super cute. It was a really fun theme to plan this occasion around.
It was a great reminder that, although we may be different and our life situations can be challenging, we can all come together in our shared beliefs for support and love!
Here is where I'm linking up this week:
