This is just a picture of the gorgeous butter flower :o)
Below is a the main course: Herb-Crusted chicken, with roasted asparagus, and garlic mashed potatoes. Absolutely amazing!
I didn't get a picture of the dessert, because I was helping with the live auction. The dessert was a fried bread pudding with brandy icecream. It usually don't like bread pudding, but it was good!Below are some pics of the baskets that people put together for the silent auction. There was also a live auction that auctioned things off like vacation homes for a week, dinners for 8, and boat cruises.
This is the banquet hall that everything took place in. Very nice! The kids from Holy Family gave a presentation -singing, speaking, etc. They did a great job!
The benefit raised over 100,000 dollars for the school. What a blessing: especially since we are building new school that will be finished this May!Overall, it was a fabulous night... and how can you beat FREE, right?

Sounds and looks lovely! What a deal! I think I called Tim's phone Sat. night and left you guys a message. I thought I was calling your cell, but the voice mail message was different. (Sorry, I was driving) Happy Thanksgiving! What are you doing for Thanksgiving?
I am glad that you and Tim got such a nice meal for free (I still would have been happier with a buger) :-) I got your e-mail and enjoyed looking at all of the pictures. Good luch with the kids tomorrow!
