Girl Scout Camp - Camp Meriwether







The first weekend in November Mckenna and I went to Girl Scout Camp. Camp Meriwether, a horse camp an hour south of town. It was the first cold weekend of the year, but we managed to stay warm. We hiked, sang songs, did skits, rode horses, played games and had so much fun. It was so great to see McKenna learning the songs that my sister and I sang years ago when we were in Girl Scouts - and she learned some new ones that were quite catchy. I found myself singing them all week long! The girls had buddy groups that they did most activities with, so she hung with Ava, Telia and Emma a lot. They were older, so they helped her out along the way and made sure she was OK. She even got a piggy bike ride on the hike - they loved carrying her around. Here are some pix of her and her friends at camp. I am so lucky I got to do that with her...I teared up a few times as I watched her with the other girls. We both really enjoyed the experience.







Happy 40th Suzanne!



My friend Suzanne turned 40 last month and a group of us went out to celebrate. We eneded up at Halo, a night club in Midtown and soon realized we were so old! We walked a block down the street to an Irish pub with a band playing Brown Eyed Girl and we knew we were better suited to hang out there! The band was actually older than us, but the clientele were nice boys from Georgia Tech! We had a great time!
