PARTY LIGHTS AND SMILES<\/h3>\n

\u00a0\"20150711HelensParty\"<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\"20150711HelenNancy\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Helen and Ted moved into the neighborhood less than a year ago and already have made it into a perfect place\u00a0to entertain friends.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

KOI POND PONDERING<\/h3>\n

\"20150711BobTed\"<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\"20150711KoiPond\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Bob and Ted are likely discussing the engineering of Ted’s fabulous koi pond and will surely take him up on his offer to help us re-engineer our own neglected fish pond.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

PARADISE WITH WEATHER TO MATCH<\/h3>\n

\"20150711GolfCart\"<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\"20150711HelenTami\"<\/a><\/p>\n

All this and golf carts, too?! Ted’s mother and daughter go for a little tour around the grounds while Helen catches up with her friend Tami.\u00a0A refreshing front blew in just in time for the party, wicking away the humidity and adding a gentle breeze to the proceedings.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

SEGUE<\/h3>\n

\"20150711YogisTail\"<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\"20150711Pasture\"<\/a><\/h3>\n

Judy and Camille slipped off to say hello to Judy’s four horses.\u00a0The low sun caught Yogis beautiful tail while the other three grazed on rain-fed pasture. See more on: Judy’s World<\/a><\/p>\n

SUGAR BUZZ<\/h3>\n

\u00a0\"20150711HelensCake\"<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\"20150711Cupcakes\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Coming up in three, two, one…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A WISH<\/h3>\n

\"20150711HelenCandles\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When we asked Helen if she had chosen a wish, she smiled like the cat that ate the canary and blew out the candle. This cake (Death by Chocolate Mousse, was it?) was so incredibly rich and perfectly moist that we are afraid to find out where it came from. The slices were huge and we ate every bite.<\/p>\n
