As many of you know, I hosted a graduation party for our son last weekend. We had about 50 guests at our home on Saturday evening. Most of the party was outside. We set up two 12x20 tents and had tables under each for eating and fellowship. Food was in the house, a drink area was set up on the porch.
Tables were covered in white tablecloths and topped with a burlap colored square in the center on which sat a mason jar with a velum photo of the graduate inside, lit by a battery operated candle. The tops of the jars were wrapped with twine and had a tag that said class of 2017. We also had some Adirondack chairs in the yard set to watch anyone playing ladder ball or ball toss. We also had hay bales covered in quilts around the fire pit for additional seating and the roasting of marshmallows. You can see some of my other decorations here: https://www.snapfish.com/photo-gift...437sdO0r6EedFyGsw/SFO/27945571523060/SNAPFISH
We served:
Applewood Pulled Pork Sandwiches with slaw and bbq sauce
Fried Chicken
Baked Potato Salad
Creamy Italian Pasta Salad
Broccoli Salad
Baked Beans
BBQ Kielbassi Rounds
Dessert:
Graduation Cake
Cheesecake
Oreo Pie
Brownies
Beverages:
Lemonade
Iced Tea with Lemon
Water
Wine Coolers
Assorted Beers
We also had ingredients for S'mores and Mountain Pies for later in the evening.
Everyone seemed to have a nice time and enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Always a plus! H was overwhelmed by the attention and generosity of our family and friends.
