Paula Deen- June 5th

My wonderful friend Sandi and I had tickets to see Paula Deen back in February. Somehow the show got rescheduled and we finally got to go and see Paula Deen live last month. She was a hoot! We laughed a lot! Sandi was in charge of getting seats to see "Aunt Paula" and she did great! We were second row center stage. We even got to taste the two receipes that Paula whipped up while we were there!

Tea Party Fun

One of the first warm days of spring Grace and I decided to head outside for a Tea Party!


Crewe and Brooke came over and before we knew it there was a bucket of water involved!

Meredith College

The second weekend of May (see how far behind I am in blogging?) was our Meredith College 5 year reunion. I wasn't really interested in going at first but some of us girls that keep in touch decided to get together and make a girls weekend out of it! And I'm SO GLAD I did! Our weekend started off by meeting at Meagan Matt's house. We have to refer to the 'megans' with first and last names b/c there were 3 of us that all lived together at one time. ;) From Meagan Matt's we went to the Presidents house for a cocktail party with the Band of Oz. We had a great time!


I know this picture is really blurry, but I still love it.

The Band of Oz. We hung out on stage with the toward the end of the night. They let us dance and sing with them!

Good ole Vann Residence Hall. This is where our college life began. All of my closets friends from college all lived on 4th floor Vann our freshman year.

Saturday we went to a ceremony where our friend Laura received an award and then we hung out around campus. We visited the Cate center and grabbed some Meredith gear and then we had lunch out in the courtyard with other alumni.


After lunch we went to a cooking class put on by Meredith and learned how to fix an interesting stirfry.

Meagan Matt's fiance' Clint was wonderful to us while we stayed at their house. He fixed us breakfast and carried us around from place to place. He also snapped this picture of us before heading out to dinner with the Class of 05!

Megan Arnold, Meagan Matt, Julia, Me, & Sara

We had dinner at 'Gravy' downtown Raleigh with just our class on Saturday night. There we got to meet up with more of the girls that we have so many memories with!

It was a wonderful weekend and I can't wait to get together with thse girls again!
