Patricia and I, my regular roomie on this weekend. |
Last weekend was our annual "Girls' Getaway Weekend" at the lovely
Briars Resort. I have been organizing this annual weekend for 15 years, and it is always a lot of fun. We went up a little later in the year, this year, as I decided being able to partake in one of the Christmas Gala's would be a nice way to celebrate 15 years.
When I first started organizing these weekends it was for a women's social group I use to run. Many of my friends now are because of that club. I am grateful that even though the club is no longer around I am still able to carry on this annual tradition for/with my girlfriends.

Our first time attending a gala here. |

The main lodge. |
 |
With 7 bedrooms and a large common area, First Tee Lodge is the perfect size for our group. |
 |
I put bows on all the bedroom doors in our lodge. |
 |
Welcome package for the girls. |
 |
Welcome letter. |
 |
First time having an Xmas tree in the lodge! |
Since we were going to be there for a festive gathering, I asked everyone to bring a gift for a gift exchange game after dinner on Friday night. It was a lot of fun, and every one went home with something nice.
 |
Lots of decorations around the main lodge. |
 |
Kristen waiting for some spa pampering. We all had treatments over the weekend. |

Returning from a walk into the Village where we did a little shopping. |

The famous "Sticky Toffee Pudding"......SO GOOD! |
