Barnyard Tablescape

OH MY!  It looks like someone has left the barn door open again! Funny thing is, all the roosters and the ducks have come together to gather round the table.  So what's a gal to do when this happens?  Well, I'll tell you what she's to do, she's to throw a barnyard bash that's what.  Invite them on in and sit them all down and serve up a feast, like any good host would do!

Come on in now, don't be shy!

I've got the perfect little table cloth I picked up at an estate sale this summer.  It's just the right time of year to bring it out too, don't you think?

Then I set out my green terracotta dinnerware.

And look what happened, those cocky little roosters jumped right up on the table.

They think they are something because they were bred from Fitz and Floyd.  Hoo-hoo-hoo!

I wasn't about to be deterred I kept setting the table and put out my everyday flatware.

And my pretty iridescent blue goblets.  Well, we were having company for dinner you know!

Of course word got out about those roosters taking their places at the table like that.

So the ducks just couldn't have that!

Oh no!  They jumped right on up there too!

And claimed their spots as well.

I really was trying very hard to ignore all the commotion they were creating.

So I offered them a bountiful harvest to enjoy.

I thought they would also enjoy some pretty napkins since they were guests in our home.

When all of sudden one of the more gentrified ducks decided he would be in charge of the napkins.

As you can imagine this didn't go over well with the roosters, and one had to sit nearby to keep watch over the napkins as well.

Then another claimed the creamer right away.

Before I knew it, there was even one who said he would be in charge of lighting the candle, and so he did!

All the while, this great big rooster was walking around the table strutting his stuff.

He got right into my flowers after dragging in a bunch of leaves from outside!

I recognized it right away.

It was obviously the king of the coup from that Fitz and Floyd pen.

Aren't they something?

It was starting to get crowded and things were getting out of control fast.

So I quickly asked the blessing and served up everyone who was seated.

And we had one interesting evening at the table tonight.

Can you imagine?
