Garden Party 3 :: The Heavens Tell God’s Glory
The heavens are telling the glory of God; and the firmament proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night declares knowledge. There is no speech, nor are there words; their voice is not heard; yet their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun, which comes forth like a bridegroom leaving his chamber, and like a strong man runs its course with joy. Its rising is from the end of the heavens, and its circuit to the end of them; and there is nothing hid from its heat.
~ Psalm 19: 1-6 ~
We welcomed the Lord’s Day this evening with our third Good Shepherd Garden Party. This week’s theme for our calendar was The Heavens Tell God’s Glory, and so all of our menu items reflected the wondrous creations of God that come from the heavens—sun, clouds, rain, lightning, hail, wind and rainbows.


Sun cupcakes.
Sparkling water (rain) and ice (hail).
Thunder and lightning pasta, which was a big hit with my kids. Even the chickpeas, which I wasn’t too sure about … We have a bit leftover, so I plan on packing it in my girls’ lunches on Monday!
Windy cupcakes. We ended up splitting these in half, just because of the other cupcakes … Of course, we have leftovers, so there should be no complaining this week about Mom never packing dessert in their lunches—LOL!
Rainbow fruit platter.
The whipped cream was used to make little white clouds. We had this with the fruit.

That looks like so much fun! Maybe I will get on the ball next year and join in.
Well done!
It's worth all the work to see the girl's JOY.

I also purchased some of those napkins and then totally forgot to use them!! Your picture reminded me! Oh well! lol! Our Garden Party was really thrown together this week! I guess I will save them for next week, if I remember! 😉
Everything looks great and I just love seeing your table decorations each week. Your rainbow table runner is so pretty!
We will be having leftover pasta for lunch today too. Have a great day! :o)
Love the rainbow fruit. Looks so yummy.
YIPPEE on a date out with hubby!
Everything looks great! I love the napkins. Don't you love when everything comes together like that? I love the table runner, too. I was just saying to my husband that I'd like to get a few to decorate the table since placemats and tablecloths always end up on the floor. Seeing yours has inspired me to start searching for some. Have a graet day. God Bless.
What a beautiful display! And your sun cupcakes turned out so cute!

Kudos for the display. It all looks great. When I'm out now I notice more and more little things to add to our celebrations.
Thank you for sharing.
