| OUR SUPREME HOSTESS, BEVERLY RIGGS |
An annual event -
Four Seasons Garden Club Christmas Party at Beverly Riggs' beautiful home in the country. Bev goes all-out in the gorgeous decorations throughout every nook and cranny of her house, including the bedrooms! She's amazing, articulate and a great cook!! Bev is our Hocking Hills Hostess Supreme!
Note: Be sure to scroll all the way down to the end of this post where I have placed photos of an old cabin that Bev and her husband, Bob, reconstructed on their property. Stepping inside the doorway will take you back in time to a place where there is no electricity, no running water, and only the warmth of a fireplace to fight the chill of a frigid winter night.

| 99 YEAR OLD MIDGE - BEV'S MOM |
The holiday guests were greeted at Bev's front door by her mother, Midge, who will be 99 years old in March. Midge is a very tiny (I think she only weighs like 78 pounds!!) woman with a great big heart and friendly smile. Midge is absolutely adorable!!

I've missed your posts. This is beautiful. My fave sweater was the one or ones with the lights. Cool. Jill and Jason had fun at an ugly sweater party. He won second place. A fun way to celebrate this beautiful holiday. We are both so blessed to have found groups of women with so many varied interests. Hang on. Hang in. We'll get that girls week end yet. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Barb. It was a great time, lots of laughter and food and the auction for scholarship fund was successful!
DeleteSo glad to know about this annual event. Everything is looking super interesting here. My sister also threw the effortlessly chic pre Christmas bash at the most beautiful rental spaces for parties and there was an ugly dress contest that my cousin Laura had won. From the party décor to the food and the fun games, everything was highly enjoyable in that bash.
