Be sure and visit Susan at Between Naps on the Porch by clicking the picture below. There are always lots of great tables to ooh and ahh over!!!
My daughter's graduation was Saturday Morning at 9:00. For lunch after the ceremony, we had a cook-out at our house for her and several of her friends and their families,39 people in all.
Here is my table.
I hung with some graduation decorations on my golden ornament tree. I used her Graduation cords, confetti and crystal graduation symbols around the base.
Everyone brought what they wanted to cook out - burgers, hot dogs, chicken, veggie dogs. Every family brought some side dishes and beverages and a great time was had by all!!!!
For Dessert, Cakes and Cupcakes.
One of my friends made this from Martha Stewart - isn't it incredible?
The next day my family along with 2 friends took a trip to Gettysburg, PA. This was my graduating daughter's choice. Our whole family loves Gettysburg!
Happy Tablescape Thursday! :D Jewel

Jewel! A big congrats to you. I know its your daughter is is graduating, but I always think the parents deserve a lot of credit, too.
The centerpieces were so cute, loved the little graduation hats.
I'm sure it was a fun party. Thanks for sharing. Hugs, Barb
Congrats to your daughter my friend...this all looks just lovely...thanks for sharing ...hugs and smiles Gl♥ria
You just must be the hostess with the mostest - because your house is "party central" - love your graduation tablescape and what a cute centerpiece. Congradulations to your daughter!
Congratulations to the graduate and to her lovely Mother too!! I did this last year for 2 so I know how much planning goes into the party. Your table looks great, so festive. We had about 100 last year and we worked like dogs for 6 week-ends in a row getting it all decorated, food planned and made and then about 5 minutes after the party ended my hubby went to bed sick, very sick, he had lyme's disease. It took him 4 weeks of antibiotics and a lot of rest to get better. Whew! So glad were done, hehe, have a lovely week. Cindy
Congratulations to your daughter!!
Everything looks wonderful!
Congratulations! I agree with Barb...the parents deserve some recognition, too!
The centerpiece was very clever! Sounds like a great way to entertain in the summer for such a large crowd!
Maybe next time you'll make it to New Oxford! Let me know!
Happy TT!

Congratulations -- a great party -- such clever decorations.
Congrats Emily, May I have cake?
Congratulations on the graduation of your daughter. I hope you had a wonderful time in Gettysburg. I live not too far from there, closer to Harrisburg. We took my inlaws there just last month and showed them the new visitors' center. We must go back again when we have more time.
I enjoyed reading your blog tonight....Love it when I have time to do blog hopping...
I always enjoy finding new blogs!
This month I am posting on our Disney trip.
Congratulations to your graduate! And those cupcakes are so yummy. Of course, the table is spectacular with all the bling and pizzazz! ;-)
At least you remembered to take photos. We had a graduation party for my son & I only got a couple of photos at the end of the party when everything was a mess. Oh well, everyone still had fun.
Hi Jewel...Congratulations to your daughter & best wishes for a bright future for her! You throw the best parties for your girls...I'm sure they'll always treasure the memories you created for them. Your centerpiece was wonderful! ;-) Bo
Looks like another great party at Jewel's house! The cake pops are such a cool idea for a graduation party. Congrats to your daughter.
Oh what a fun table! I love the cupcake tree. :) Congratulations to your daughter, and all the graduates!
Congratulations! What a wonderful job you did-it's easy to see it was done with love. I'm watching my little girl grow up (okay-she's 15 already!) and hope to do something special when her big day comes. That cupcake tree is wonderful. I'll have to show it to Allie
