Design Weekend!

What can I say about my friends? They are the absolute best! My troops arrived at dinner time Friday night and dove right in to decorating the bedrooms and organizing the Crop Room at the Junction. We stayed up till 2am, then most of the team had to get up at 5:30 to hand out waters for the Bell Buckle Moon Pie 10K run. They returned looking fresh as daisies to put in another whole day of arranging, hanging, and designing.

You know how you picture things in your mind and then when it truly happens, it's almost never as good as you imagined? (My last haircut, etc.) This weekend was the exeption to that rule. Every room looks so much cuter than I ever dared to hope! I've posted new photos on the website.

Go check it out! Thanks to Natalie (seamstress extraordinare), Mary Dee (chef of scrumdelyicious delights), and designers Donna, Suzanne, my sister Becky (who kept my boys for a week and still came to help), Amber, Devon, Michelle, Marissa, and last but NOT least, my super-talented daughter Livvie! (Who worked non stop for a whole week in preparation for this weekend!) What a team!! I love you all!

Because of this weekend: I am actually AHEAD of schedule! So Monday night when I got a call to host a group of 20 ladies the weekend of July 18th, I said YES! I am so excited to have a booking and to get the chance to show off the Junction! God is truly taking care of me. Now, if He can keep me sane while I check off the other 400 tiny things left to do, I'll really appreciate it. Whoo HOO! We're up and running!
