Girls' Weekend!

Girls just wanna have fun...and we did! It was time again for me, Ginny, Meredith, and Erica to get together for a girls' weekend. This time it took us down south to Bradenton, FL! Erica had their 2nd baby, Samantha, back in November and it was time for us all to give her sugars!

Friday, Ginny took a half day from work, met us at our house, and we took off to pick up Meredith in Orlando. McKenna was a good little traveler and had lots of fun with Auntie Mer Mer in the back seat! We got to Bradenton in time for some yummy dinner made by our wonderful Hostess. We finished out the rest of Friday night catching up and giggling.

Saturday was a beautiful day! We spent the first part of our morning at the beach soaking up some sunshine before returning to the house for the kids to take naps (my, how things have changed). We took a walk around Erica's beautiful neighborhood after they woke up and then got all dolled up for a night out on the town...with NO BABIES!!! Thanks to Erica's wonderful (and brave) husband who watched the girls, the 4 of us ate dinner at a fabulous restaurant on the water. It was nice to get dressed up and have some place fun to be with girlfriends :o)

Sunday we had breakfast together and then made our trek back through Orlando to Jacksonville. The weekend went by so quickly...it always does! Thank you ladies for a great time...thank you for all of your help with McKenna. Erica, you were a gracious hostess and your family is so sweet and precious. I love you ladies so very much. I'm already excited about being together again in May when we celebrate Meredith's graduation and throw her a baby shower!

Looks like you had a great time! Thanks for your advice about napping--B actually read Baby Wise and I read Happiest Baby on the Block. I think with that and everyone's advice, we've managed to meet somewhere in the middle. I'll keep you posted! Hope tutoring is going well!
