I enjoyed meeting up with my girlfriends the other weekend so we could celebrate Heather's birthday and enjoy a girly movie and yummy food at one of our favorite restaurants. We always have such fun when we get together. We decided we better meet for the movie first because we often miss out on our movie plans if we have dinner before…we start chatting and giggling, and before you know it…the movie has already started! We went to see You Again, and it was soooo funny! I strongly suggest that you do NOT even consider trying to talk your sweet guy into seeing this movie with you! He will not be happy! As we watched the movie, I couldn't help but think about what John might have been doing if I had coerced him into seeing it. I think it is safe to say he would have found his way into another theater…FAST! Believe me, he's a good sport, but even I will only push that button so far! I loved it though, and it is a movie that we girls can relate to on so many levels! I do strongly suggest that you call up your gal pals and head out to see it! We enjoyed a delicious cake after dinner (Thank you, Sarah!!) and serenaded Heather with our sweet rendition of "Happy Birthday"!
FUN pictures
Lots of belly laughs and giggles
A few "Don't you dare post that on Facebook!"
SWEET memories in the making!
I feel soooo very blessed to know each of these sweet girls! I cannot even begin to tell you how much I love hanging out with them! When we arrived in Huntsville, I met Jen first, and then, she introduced me to each of them. They all welcomed me into their group as though I had always been a part of it. As I sat there watching the movie, I thought about how difficult it can be for girls of any age to make new friends, try to fit in, and just find that sense of belonging with new girlfriends. If you've seen the movie, you know just what I'm talking about. And, if you have ever moved around even a little bit throughout your life…you really know what I am talking about. Unfortunately, girls don't always make it easy to become friends, but I can assure you it means alot when one does. (Thank you, Jen!) So, I encourage you to look around and take notice of the "new girl" in town, at your school, or in your office ~ and, stop and think about how you would want to be treated if you were in her heels! You might just make a friend for life, and believe me, your heart is big enough to welcome in a few new friends!

I had such fun creating a special birthday invitation for Heather's night out! I thought we needed something a little sassy and oh, so FABULOUS! Do you like it? I have it listed in Ann-Margaret's SpecialTea Shoppe on Etsy now so if you have a special celebration coming up I would love to customize this design for you! Most any of the designs you see in my shoppe may be created on any of the items I carry. So, if you see a belt buckle design that you would love to have as a bridal shower invitation, just send me a message, and I'll have fun creating something special for you! I am now offering printable DIY invitations, cupcake wrappers and toppers, banners, and other party decor and am working on getting more added to the shoppe. In the meantime, please feel free to inquire about a particular design as you begin to plan your celebration!
Hope you're having a FABULOUS Monday!

Thanks so much for visiting Ann-Margaret's Vsions!
What a fabulous time you must have had. It’s been ages since I went out with a big group of girls like that…it is so much fun when it does happen. These days I’m happy to have a night out with one dear friend. What you say is so true about girls and friendships. I grew up as a Navy “brat” and was constantly the new person on the block, so I know what that feeling is like.
Your invitation rocks! And your new line sounds so wonderful…and CUPCAKE wrappers..only YOU would think of that! What a great idea!!! Will have to check them out!
Hi Cindy,
We did have lots o’ fun!:) Takes a little planning sometimes for us to all get together, but we always have a good time when we do. Thank you for your sweet comments about the invitation! ~ I’m so happy to hear you like it! I’m working on lots of new designs so stay tuned…lots of cute “cupcake skirts” coming, too! Just need some more “cookie dough late nights” to try to get it all done!! 🙂
