August

We are going to keep it simple for August.  We are meeting at El Portal in G-wood.  Since it is a Wednesday, that also means it is margarita night! 

Several first ladies are helping at VBS and can stop down after they are finished.

Hope to see you on the first at 7!

Please RSVP to amber via text, email, or (blog comment- CrisDee)

Quite possibly an all time favorite!

Our July get-together was full of fun. I don't know why the time goes so fast but I think we could have easily spent a few more hours together- eating, drinking, talking, and swimming! Even though it was crazy hot, I think all of us enjoyed the night and the quick dip in the pool after.

The pile of "favorite things" looked so good.  It was fun to look things over in anticipation of what we were going to get to take home.  We had body scrubs, lotions, body washes, bracelets, water bottles, ear bud keepers, knives, spices, undies, hair oil, mascara and maybe more! I hope I didn't leave anything out, but knowing me... I probably did!


Everyone had a little brown bag to take their new goodies home in!

Everyone brought along a favorite dessert or appetizer to share.  Once again, way too much food but it was delicious!!
Our hostess Melissa had hot dogs and brats for us, as well as a great selection of drinks.  

While we were eating, we played a favorites game.  This was played like the game of scattergories.  The questions that were asked were:
Favorite-
Colors, type of food when eating out, vacation destination, breakfast food, website or blog, holiday, book, time for church, flower, and day of the week.  We had a 4 way tie!  We did a tie breaker and gave out a bag of Godiva truffles and a picture frame.  Congrats to Julie and Cris for being the big winners!


 The it was time for the real fun to begin!  Each of us took a turn telling about our "favorite".  We told where you could buy it, how much it costs (between $6-$10), and why you can't live without it!  Then, the ladies opened up the names they had drawn from a bag to see who would be the lucky recipient.  It was like Christmas with all of the anticipation on waiting for names to be called and handed your gift!

 


 

The evening ended with a dip in Melissa's beautiful pool.  The water was so refreshing and the evening turned out beautiful! 


Until next month, Ladies!
