What Happens at the Lake, Stays at the Lake.......

What an absolutely perfect weekend with friends! A group of us headed out to stay with a very dear friend in her new house on Richland Chambers Lake. It was a women's only weekend and I do not remember the last time I laughed as hard and as long as we did for an entire weekend. If laughter is good for the soul then my soul has been blessed! Sharon's house is absolutely the PERFECT lake retreat. The views are beyond your wildest dreams and the house itself is warm and comfortable and inviting. But the best part of the whole thing was the time spent with wonderful friends.
The day could not have been more gorgeous and we talked about every imaginable subject and maybe some you do not want to imagine but the moments you have to share and laugh and reminisce are priceless.

What would we do without girlfriends? Family is wonderful but there is something about the women in your life that is not replaceable. The things you can share and talk about... they understand. It is exactly like the YaYa Sisterhood. It goes beyond conversation into a whole other area.
We walked and talked and stood in wonderment of our accommodations. How generous James and Sharon are to share their place with all of us so graciously.


When the day was almost done we headed in for a challenging game of Bejeweled Blitz (don't ask) and several rounds of Chicken Foot. Does not take much to entertain a bunch of old ladies!!!
Another wonderful meal and a sunset you would not believe was the perfect way to end the day. I probably don't need to mention that the "pajama party" lasted until well past midnight...like well past midnight!!! Sleep? Who needs it. There is time for that another day. For this weekend it was all about the friendship!

Thanks Sharon!!!!!
