A Significant Send-Off...







Some of you may have wondered..."Who IS Babs?" Well, she's a great gal---and definitely THE hostess with the mostess. So what does one do when the ultimate hostess is guest of honor at an upcoming soiree? The answer: Enlist the troops! A little background: Babs (and hubby Dave) are heading on a new adventure. After raising three of their own charming children (this is a completely unbiased assessment, of course), Dave and Babs are heading to Africa to work with children who haven't been nearly as blessed as we are. (We are excited for this new chapter in their life, and we'll be providing links to Dave and Babs' blog about their adventures in Liberia as soon as it's up and running.) Of course, we couldn't let them go without a party! The theme for their going-away bash was "it takes a village..." as it took many good friends to put on a last-minute shindig for more than 200 people. We had a yummy (and eye-pleasing) appetizer spread, an overabundance of desserts, a beautiful backyard to enjoy (thanks to our friends Pete and Helen), and lots of great guests. It was a fun evening, and we've provided some photos so you can see the details.
