April Showers Bring May Flowers
ByParty Recap
The tables were decorated with rain boots with little flowers in them. They were sitting on a little patch of grass. Each person had a red cloth napkin at each setting. There were sock monkey umbrellas above each table and clouds around the room with "crystal" rain drops hanging from them. There were sock monkeys throughout on tables and chairs to accent the theme. Instead of a lunch or brunch, appetizers were served along with monkey cupcakes and a candy bar so guests could choose their own candy to take home in a bag.
