We were so lucky to have this AMAZING catered dinner following our temple sealing. My parents have some good friends, Charlotte and Dick Hill, who have lived in their neighborhood for many years. Charlotte has been my mom's visiting teacher for many years as well. They were so sweet and kind to offer their services to our family! The dinner was so good: Salads, rolls, pork chops, mashed potatoes, veggies, and an incredible brownie topped with ice cream and peppermint. It was delicious! Not only was the food spectacular, but the service couldn't be beat: The Hills enlisted the help of their family members to serve us! It was so nice to be able to sit down, talk with our family and friends, and enjoy the night while having everything taken care of--luxury!
It felt so nice and elegant because of the work my mom and dad had put into setting up the room as well. The tables were beautiful, and there were even a few decorations from our wedding reception that were thrown into the decor. It was nice to be able to recall that wonderful night as soon as we walked in the room. At the end of the night, every family was able to take home a flower in a vase from the tables. The thoughtful details make all the difference!
A big thank you goes out to the Hill Family and to mom and dad! Thank you for this beautiful, memorable night--we love you and appreciate you more than you know.
To all our family and friends who were there in the beginning, the middle, and now:
"A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future, and accepts you just the way you are."
Thank you for being those "friends" to us! We love you and wouldn't have made it to this point in our lives without you!
I didn't get pictures of Josh's parents, my parents, Pieter, Brady and Angie, or Kristy, but we were so happy they were there to share the night with us. We also missed the Bryson family, who joined us for our temple sealing but couldn't make it to dinner.
