Well, not really!!! But, because we are having the most glorious weather after Irene, I decided we needed a calm, restful dinner al fresco. I have several frog inspired accessories so decided to do a table outside near the pond where we hear the frogs croaking every night!!! There are alot of pictures because the sun was casting BEAUTIFUL shadows and the light kept changing so I kept snapping away!!!:):)
 When we dine out here it is like being in a tree house! We are really surrounded by trees, as I showed you yesterday.
 These GORGEOUS frog napkin rings were a GIFT!!! Do any of you remember Linda from RMS (Bellesmom)???? She sent these to me several years ago! I LOVE them! They have beautiful little beads on them too. I haven't heard from her in a while and miss her!
I used some of the flowers from the bouquet Joe sent me . They still look pretty!!!!!
 This is the candlestick.
 I think frogs are kinda cute, do you???
 We each also have a frog tea light holder.
 Of course, green glasses for our drinks.
 Beautiful alstromeria. It is in the lily family.
 This is an ivy plant that lives out here on the deck. It has a little frog stuck down into it too!
 I LOVE this pot!!!!
 He is so happy that it has cooled off he is smiling:):)

 I used a plaid/striped placemat, my white chargers that I love, my green square plate, white embossed salad plate, and the flowers make up the last layer. The creamy flatware is from Target.

 These pillows pick up the colors in the flowers so nicely.
 As you can see, I at first had used a different napkin ring then REMEMBERED my frog napkin rings!


 I layered 2 cut work napkins, a green and a white one and fluffed them out. It is such a pretty look.
 I lit the candles for you!

 Yes, there was a beautiful BREEZE outside too!

 I love the ruffled edge of this vegetable bowl.









 I wish you could all join us for dinner!



 I feel so fortunate and still have the people who suffered loss and flooding in my thoughts and prayers.
 I forget where I got these and the candlesticks, sorry! I have had themn for several years now.
