Weekend recap - the beginning

So, let's mosey on back to Thursday when the Support Team girls flew and bussed and drove in from all over the place to meet at my house! Yvette caught a bus from Canberra. Mel, a plane from Melbourne and Mardi, a plane from Adelaide and they all met and picked up their hire car at Sydney airport. I managed to coordinate their trips within about 30mins of each arrival which was very convenient.

Yvette was in charge behind the wheel and drove the girls safely to my house picking up Janelle along the way. The weather was not so good. Overcast. Spots of rain and we all had our fingers crossed that the weather would improve as the weekend progressed.

Thursday night we stayed in a BEAUTIFULLY appointed three bedroom apartment with private plunge pool. Unfortunately it was only for the one night as the Resort didn't have the room available for any other night over the weekend. It had three bedrooms upstairs and a big living area downstairs! 

And we spent the night getting to know each other a bit better. Exchanging little gifts and dining in style - McDonalds...

 

These gorgeous flowers were in our room when we arrived courtesy of my thoughtful friend Margaret...

 

and the girls gave me pressies every day..I was very spoilt. Firstly this..it was so beautifully wrapped and I didn't want to open it!!

 

and inside was this...

 

I wore it all weekend...isn't it divine. The second day, I received this...

 

it has a little felt birdie to go with it which didn't arrive in time to travel with Mel on the plane and it's GORGEOUS! I love it. And then on Saturday night - this...the card made me cry. Such lovely words inside..

 

PLUS a 12 month subscription to Real Living magazine - told you I was spoiled by the girls!

 

We managed a few photos...

 

and this one on the stairs..

 

this was my room...a big bed all to myself. 

 

and we stayed up late chatting and stapling handouts, punching out butterflies and watching the geeks get their makeovers on Beauty and the Geek!

And before we knew it..Friday was HERE! THE BIG DAY!!!!!!

 
 

And so began our adventure...

There's too much to talk about in one big post, so I am breaking it up into smaller posts...stay tuned for my Friday recap!
