CCPC 2nd Annual Ladies Dinner

This is becoming one of my favorite evenings of the Christmas season.  It's a very special time put aside for us moms, daughters, daughter-in-laws, grandmothers, sisters, women of God to share a meal together.  The tables are all decorated so festive and look beautiful.  This year Susan took on the task of decorating our beautiful table and I was proud to be there.   I think there were close to 160 women attending this year.  Need to ask Susan, she will know the exact head count.
 Our table.
Some of the men from church served our meal, drinks and dessert.  We felt so very special.
 Susan's boss, Wendy, was our speaker for the evening.  She was great.  She spoke on the "Wonders" of the season and all the special memories that our brought to mind.  Wendy has taken a Call at First Presbyterian downtown Dallas and Susan will be taking over responsibilities of the Faith Hospice Grief outreach.  Wendy spoke briefly on grief and we all cried a little thinking of all those who we love so dearly that are no longer in our lives here on earth and how much we miss them. 
 Our table group consisted of Carolyn and Susan
 Mollie's daughter Tara and Sueanne
 Lindsey and Gayle
 Elysse and me
 We have a beautiful tree in the center of the Atrium, so we all had our pictures taken in front of the tree.  Not our best after the crying.

 I think this is such a sweet picture of John and Susan.  Thanks for for taking such great care of the girls.
