Girlfriends Luncheon






Wow, what a weekend. My dear friend Karen Brown flew in Thursday night for the Girlfriends Annual Luncheon on Saturday. We all met Friday for breakfast at Peaches and then later shopping at Ellenton, I got a killer Coach bag for 60% off! Then off to get pedicures, dinner and the movies. We saw the Secret Life of Bee's and then on Saturday after our lunch we were at Nordstroms in Tampa and we saw Jennifer Hudson, I went up and talked to her for a second.

We went to Tampa for our annual luncheon on Saturday to a fabulous restaurant TC Choys. We had a private room and so much fun. Our dear friend Jeci who used to live here and also flew in for the Annual Luncheon. It was so wonderful having Karen and Jeci there. We enjoyed Dim Sum and many other delicious dishes and then exchanged gifts. This year in honor of Stacy Julian we each brought some product we can't live without, nothing expensive. We exchanged those too, purse holders that clip on the table, glade candles, hair spray, foot smoothers, hand lotion from Ulta. We were at the restaurant for over 4 hours!

After lunch we headed to the International Mall for a little shopping and then later dinner, we got back to the Ranch at 10:15 PM. What a fabulous day. I just love my girlfriends! I made a photo book of all the past December Girlfriends luncheons, and it was fun to look through and see our different hairstyles, clothing and some friends we lost along the way.

Today I was on the hunt for my green wallet and that lead to cleaning out my closet looking for it. 3 bags of stuff later, I can say my closet has never looked better, but still no green wallet. Laundry, Publix and all the fun stuff of a Sunday.
