I hosted a cocktail party last Sunday afternoon. JUST WOMEN. It started with just the Mah Jong girls but quickly grew to a group of 12. I decided we would have our "First Annual Holiday Party" just for the girls.
We had appetizers and desserts. Adult libations were available for all who desired them. We did a Grab Bag Swap and traded 'war' stories.
Something magical happened when this bunch of women got together. Some people knew everybody - some knew just a few. It didn't matter. We were all together for a purpose. We were doing something JUST FOR US. Our age range spanned over 30 years, but there were no age barriers. It didn't matter. Some were still working, some were retired. It didn't matter. Some celebrate Christmas, some celebrate Hanukkah. It didn't matter.
There will be lots of Christmas gatherings this season. I will always treasure the moments shared by this group of women.

That is so nice! I kicked Brian out a few weeks ago and had an old fashioned slumber party with a bunch of my girlfriends. Junk food, girlie movies, games and girl talk.. it was perfect after a year of weddings, showers and new homes. Merry Christmas! xo
