Last week was full of girly girl time!
One evening last week I had a get together with three of my wonderful friends.
We've adopted the name Ya Ya Sisters for our little group
and we've been having a monthly
get together for over seven years now. . I tell you, these girls know
how to listen
and know just what to say and do
to make me cry and laugh all at the same time!
Sue, me
AND
Gale and Peggy
Thank you Sue, Gale and Peggy for the MANY WAYS that you
bless my life.
You truly are AMAZING WOMEN.
Last Saturday I spent the day shopping with
my two very special sisters and my
wonderful Aunts.
wonderful Aunts.
Melanie (sister), Cindy (sister) and Me
Aunt Becky and Aunt Kathy
Hobby Lobby, Olive Garden and the Mall were the places
we hung out for the day.
we hung out for the day.
I think my sisters and I talked all the way there and
all the way home and in between,
all the way home and in between,
while Aunt Kathy and Becky listened most the way. OKAY, since I
know my sisters and aunts will be reading this, I better
confess up.....
I'll admit that it was probably ME
confess up.....
I'll admit that it was probably ME
that talked all the way there and back!!!!
Where did I get that talking gene??
I am so blessed to have such special friendships
with the BEST SISTERS in the world,
and love spending
time with two of the most wonderful aunts there ever could be.
Thank you God for my family!

Sounds like a wonderful time!
I think we all need a group of women like that, or at least a few really good, close friends that we do life with.
I am blessed to have such a group. There are seven of us, and we have been together for 15 years!! We have been through a lot over the years as you can imagine.
Girlfriend get togethers are the best. Thanks for sharing.

Your post reminds me of something Judy Wise
( http://judywise.blogspot.com ) posted on her blog.."Some friends are coming to visit in a few days who always hold up a mirror to me that makes me feel like I've done well in life. We need friends like that. Who encourage us, really listen to us, find us to be excellent. (not perfect. But still excellent.)"
I just love that and I know that you know the truth of Judy's words as well
I'm glad you had such a lovely time with your girl friends! It's like the best medicine in the world!
LeeAnn, you are also a blessing in my life and quite an amazing woman. We are always there to encourage each other and to tell things like they are. Everyone needs fun and laughter in their lives....we are just so blessed to have it every month!
Love & hugs,
Peggy
Lee Ann, you are such a blessing in my life also and an amazing woman with your painting talent. Great pictures by the way, maybe we'll add photographer to your many talents. We are there for each other with encouragement and laughter and tears when needed.
Love & hugs, Peggy
Lee Ann,
I can't think of a better way to spend some time than with close friends and family.

It looks and sounds like you have a wonderful little club going on. That was great movie. There is so much comfort and peace in surrounding yourself with great girl friends. I am a girly girl through and through!!! Thanks for stopping by for my fun Give away.
Good luck and many blessings, Deborah
girl friends are the best! I would love to have a very close friend that I hang out with all the time. i'm praying for that. And praying too that she would have a husband that would adore Neal as well. and I will take you up on that bubble bath!

Mom, you SO gave me that talking gene! :-) You guys were so fun to talk to. I've never had the phone passed around to five people ever when I'm on the other end.
Be glad you can have friends like your YAYA's. Some of us don't really have that opportunity.
Love you,
Jess
