Do We Know How to Party or What?

If you were anywhere near the Charlotte last night, you probably heard the raucous laughter emanating from my house! So, yes we do know how to party! About 35 GEMS joined us for our annual Christmas gathering and if you weren't there, we missed you.

Thank you to everyone who came - it wouldn't have been a party without you there. Just so you know, all the GEMS are invited to our gatherings, regardless of age. Last night, we had women who have just started college all the way up to...well, I won't tell you exactly how far we went but suffice it to say that we had a couple of great-grandmothers in attendance!

Thank you to the special sisters who brought a couple of items I had forgotten at the store. I always forget something so just be forewarned that if you are ever invited to my house, I may call you at the last minute and ask you to pick up some ice or something!

Thank you to those who brought me sweet hostess gifts. You really shouldn't have (and I mean that!) but I appreciate your kindness.

Love, love, love having everyone over. So anytime you are in the neighborhood, feel free to stop on by. Or if you need an extra place to house a guest or two, or want to use my house to host your next gathering, feel free to ask! I'm so grateful for my new home and would love to share some time with you there.

Here are some pictures from last night...enjoy these and make plans now to join us for GEMS Christmas 2012!
