Family Weekend!

This past weekend Mom & Dad came to visit and we had a great time! Mom, Trooper & Rex got here Friday night and then I had to promptly get up at the crack of dawn Saturday morning to work at the AJLI Winter Leadership conference. It was an early morning, but so cool to see the president-elect and president-elect-elects from Junior Leagues all over the country, and some from Canada, Mexico, and the UK too! Mom asked if I ever had second thoughts about joining the League and it was an easy "no". I am so grateful to the League for things I've learned and for all the dear friends I've made because of the League. And I am so proud to be a part of an organization that is committed to "building better communities."

One of my favorite things about visitors is the chance to enjoy the wonderful cuisine Savannah has to offer. Saturday for lunch, Mom and I went to Soho South which is this delightful retro art store/cafe. It has an incredibly eclectic feel and is a great place for a yummy brunch. Saturday night, after picking Dad up from the airport, we went to Sundae Cafe at Tybee for dinner. You would never think that it's a really nice restaurant from the outside (it's in between a minute mart and a liquor store), but it is sooo delicious! The fried green tomato with grits and hollandaise appetizer is so scrumptious! Sunday after church we went to Breakfast Club for brunch. The best part of eating at BC is sitting at the counter - it's great entertainment while you eat! And it's great food, too - the owners helped cater JFK, Jr.'s wedding @ Cumberland Island.

Hope y'all had a good weekend and I hope you'll come visit soon!
