I have to say my favourite sleepover continues to be an annual December event that I host for a group of close girlfriends. The tradition started in 2000 with 4 friends that had helped me through a particularly sad time in my life. I was very grateful for their love and support and was searching for some means to thank them. They were all moms with young children who needed a break during the most hectic month of the year – December! What started out as a relaxing weekend with good food, wine and Christmas shopping has turned into a much anticipated and crowded event! The original 4 spread the word and over the years have lobbied for invites to be extended to other friends, neighbours and relations. The guest list has more than doubled and the laughs have quadrupled (conservative estimate). My favourite memories include: Deb modeling her purchases - new boots and sexy black bra over top of her best flannels; and the look on Tricia’s face when it is announced that Winners is closing in 5 minutes! Cheers to another memorable sleep over this December girls!
