Aunt C's

ROSES and LACE

This week, we celebrated the retirement

of a precious co-worker by lunching at

the Roses & Lace Tea Room.

This sweet lady has been our

Day Care Director for nearly 30 years!

She has changed many a diaper, hugged

hundreds of children and been an unwavering

example of God's love in their lives.

If anyone ever deserved being treated

special, this lady does!

We had a lovely lunch and the

food was delicious!

 Our table was set with a lace cloth

and pretty pink and rose plates.

The other table was set with a lace cloth and

blue square plates for chargers. They had a blue rooster in the center.....just blue and white love. 

Notice the lace covers on the dining chairs.

More lovely roses I believe.

Here is another picture of the pink table

to show the lovely cup and saucer..more

pink roses and rosy raspberry tea to go with.

We also had strawberry soup and

a lemon dessert to finish.

(I didn't get pictures of the soup or dessert,

I was pretty engrossed in the chicken

salad croissant by then).

We also had a reception after church Sunday,

and I think this cake says it simply and best.

I can't help but be reminded of the song

by Steve Green....May all Who Come

Behind me Find me Faithful when I

think of her years of service.

Mrs. Betty, you can never be replaced and

those who come after will

find you were faithful.......

Happy Retirement dear friend.

Until next time...
