Girls weekend

Well my fun weekend is now over and it's time to start getting ready to get back to real life tomorrow. To take you through my whole weekend I last left off saying that Ryan and I were about to watch the movie The Happening on Halloween night. Oh....my.....gosh - that was the WORST movie I've ever seen. It was ridiculously bad! Please, if you haven't seen it yet don't waste your time. Life is short so please don't waste even one second on that movie! Saturday morning Karen and I decided to go to the Micanopy Fall Festival. I never like that anywhere near as much as I like the McIntosh Fall Festival that we all went to two weeks ago but I still have to go to the Micanopy Fall Festival every year. It's much smaller than the McIntosh one but it's still mandatory for me to go to this one. :-) We spent some time there and then it was time to pick up our friend Tara and to make our way to Palm Coast to meet up with Debs who was coming from Jacksonville to start our Fabulous Fall Girls Weekend. We met Debs at the Tea Room at 1:30 in Palm Coast. I had never been to Palm Coast before so everything that I planned was all from looking at stuff online and hoping that the pictures of everything did justice to the places. We got to Tea Room at 1:30 and the setting was nice but the food didn't quite work out so well. Oh well, it was another Tea Room experience to add to our list and now we have several more things to add to our list of things that Debs and I won't do in our Tea Room that we open we turn 50 years old!! From the Tea Room we headed to our hotel room to get checked in. The original plan was to watch the Gator football game at a sports bar nearby but instead we watched it in our room. My wonderful Gators played the Georgia Bulldogs and beat the snot out of them! The final score was 49 - 10!!!! So, I think it goes without saying that we enjoyed the game!! The game was over a little after 7:00pm and we headed to a restaurant that was nearby for dinner. The four of our walked in decked out in our Gator gear and we had several "Go Gators" and "bet you girls are happy" comments while we were having dinner. :-) After dinner we headed back to the room to hang out for the rest of the night. Sunday morning we woke up and took our time waking up, taking showers, and having breakfast at the hotel. We left the hotel and went to Washington Oaks State Garden and walked around for some time. It was very pretty and peaceful. From there we left and had lunch together. Well, it was lunch time but we all actually ordered breafast and I had some incredibly delicious banana pancakes!! We took our time eating and when we were finished we did a little shopping and then it was time to say bye to Debs and to head back to Gainesville. It's nice to be back home and unpacked and relaxing on the couch with Ryan while Libby is sleeping soundly upstairs in her room. I just realized that I never finished that load of laundry that I mentioned on Friday night so it looks like I know what I'll be finishing up tonight before I go to bed! :-)
