This weekend (most of) the ladies from my moms group drove down to our girl Taylor’s family’s lake house for some much needed R&R as well as tons of laughter, food, drinks and quality time! Taylor was precious and decorated the whole place SUPER adorable complete with personalized wine glasses and cute little gift baskets on our beds!
As soon as everyone arrived, we played a game and had some yummy martinis!
We stayed up late (some of us later than others) talking, chatting…one of us might have meowed while asking about a popular pediatrician in the area, Dr. Katz. Finally though it was time for bed.
I woke up to a beautiful view the next morning to the most gorgeous view! I was up first so I got to enjoy some peace and quiet with the sunrise!
Some of the other ladies started waking up, and coffee on the deck was a must!
We had breakfast and mimosas!
Then we decided to head out to the water for some fun in the sun!

Thank GOD for our pal Whitney, who calmly informed us of his presence in the room and caught him and set him free!
After that scare, we chatted some more…I MIGHT have opened another bottle of wine, then made some delicious mini pizzas for dinner!
After dinner, we headed out to the dock for some fun group pictures! (So sad that Frankie had already left and that Amy and Serene couldn’t make it…otherwise our WHOLE group was there!)
