Last weekend we had a girls get away to the desert house on the Riviera. Who would have thought that 13 women would want to get away to the desert in July with the high temp being 117 degrees??? It happeneded and we had a blast!
Everybody showed up Friday night. We started the festivities with a couple of ice breaker games to include a purse scavenger hunt and observation game. Then we had our Greek themed Mamma Mia night. (total chick flick) We had chicken, greek salad, stuffed grape leaves and baklava for desert. And to cap it off we watched Mamma Mia!
Saturday morning was a time of relaxation and just talking and lounging around in the PJ's. There were coloring books and crayons, Girls night out Dare Cards, hula hoops, you name it, it was there to not act our own age! Early afternoon we played bingo and inbetween games we went out to check on our egg that we decided to fry in the hot afternoon sun! It took an hour but it happened.
That night we got into our 70's themed festivities by dressing up for the era and having a progressive dinner. 1st house had the typical 70's appetizers and Salad bar, to include celery sticks and deviled eggs and of course a punch bowl full of spiked punch! 2nd house included the main course which was Hamburger helper, tuna Casserole, Chicken Casserole and Veg-all! The last house was dessert, where we celebrated 3 birthdays and had cupcakes and cookies.
We were then off to Captain Jim's bar in our 70's attire and took the Salton City by storm. What a GREAT time!
