Living it Up

I must admit this weekend was one of the best weekends I have had in a long time! It was busy, productive, energizing, nurturing and inspiring. The fun began on Friday with the Great Gatsby. If you are a romantic, I highly recommend this movie. I remember reading the book a long time ago, but didn't recall the details. My husband said he would have rather seen Star Trek, but sometimes we need to mix it up. It reminded me of true undying love and how we often take it for granted. Next stop was at the American Girl model search on Saturday benefiting the Embrace Girls foundation. I really had no idea what I was signing up for but it is for a great cause and my Princess loves to work the runway. After the registration we enjoyed lunch at the Corner Bakery with my mom and niece. The fun did not stop there. Around 5 p.m. we had a play date with a family from school. I loved their home and their hospitality. (You never really know what to expect when you visit someone's home for the first time)The hostess had it laid out. Fresh guacamole and chips, a dessert table for the kids and of course drinks lol! The kids played and the adults talked for hours. From the trampoline to the playroom to the pool it was nonstop entertainment. To top it off we enjoyed grilled filet mignon and cocktails. My husband says, "It was the best play date ever"! Today the Hubby and I attended Cliff Floyd's Celebrity Bowling Tournament and it was amazing. Team "Sporty Mommas" was in the house rocking the red and black. It was a fabulous afternoon filled with friends, food, bowling and a serious silent auction all for a great cause. I didn't bowl so well game one, but I won game two! This weekend was something special! #Live, Love, Laugh
