Celebrations with Friends at Christmas

This is my dear friend Pam Donlon. We have been friends for 23 years and meet in Williamsburg every Christmas ( as well as other times) for our annual Christmas lunch and gift exchange. This year we went for lunch to a new French place and had chicken and mushroom crepes and creme brulee for dessert. It was yummy. Pam lives in Virginia Beach. We try to allow ourselves all day to talk and catch up on all the news. We knew each other in Alabama for 6 years and in Virginia for the rest. Our husbands used to work together and we have watched our kids grow up over the years. For many years we traveled to DC to shop and see the White House and all the other Christmas decorations. We don't make it every year now...but are planning to go again next year.She is very dear to me and we have many memories and secrets we share.

And I also went to "Christmas Town" at Busch Gardens in Williamsburg this year for the first time with my old YW presidency. Here we are in one picture with Santa....the elves loaned us their hats. Genia couldn't make it until the next day. A couple of us have moved but we try to get together every month and always do a fun celebration for birthdays and Christmas. Here we are in all our glory. We spent the night at a Marriot and shopped until we dropped. I love these girls.
