"Well, I think that should do it," Tin-Tin announced, climbing down from the stepladder. She joined Cherie who was standing back admiring the handiwork.
"It looks great, Tin-Tin! I think we've done a really good job with decorating." Cherie smiled as Tin-Tin gave her a squeeze.
"Maybe when you're a little older we could start our own party co-coordinating/decorating business."
Cherie giggled as she helped clean up the decoration leftovers. "It may not be Paradise Peaks, but I think Virgil will like it."
"I'm sure he will, Cherie." They had not gone overboard with the party decorations, instead settling for the 'less is more' theme. Tin-Tin had picked some exotic flowers from her fathers' garden and arranged them in vases on the buffet table as well as placing a couple of vases around the room.
Cherie had placed ivory linens on the buffet tables and carefully arranged ivory ribbon as a decorative edge around the table rims. "I hope these tables can hold all the food. I heard there is going to be an enormous amount," she said, carefully putting the last piece of ribbon in place.
"I think it will be okay. Besides, it won't last long, not with Gordon and Scott in here!" Tin-Tin replied. They both laughed as they took one last look at the room then sighed with satisfaction.
