Tennis Girl Party!

Hi All,
I am reposting to join Susan over at Between Naps on the Porch and Tablescape Thursday and Cindy over at Show and Tell Friday. Once a month, one of the tennis girls hosts a party at her home. We call it our "Friendship Dinner." I had the month of September, and last night was my turn!
The table was set...
Appetizers under the pergola...


The cocktails are ready...


All ready to go...


The girls are here...




Our traditional photo...
Thanks to Miss BJ over at Sweet Nothings for her biscuit recipe and Yvonne over at Stonegable and her slow cooker beef stew. YUMmmmmmmy!

    My friend, it looks like your party was a smashing success and that all of your guests had a great time! You can tell by all the smiles that they were wearing! Loved your pretty autumn table setting! Love the pumpkin centerpiece...I have one that it nearly identical! I bet that Yvonne's stew recipe and BJ's biscuit recipe were sooo yummy! Both of those ladies are fabulous cooks! Great party, Robin...thank you so much for sharing it with us today for Sunday Favorites!!!
