It started out VERY rainy. Well, not when I first woke up so I hopped on my bike right at 7am and headed out feeling oh so good. I was quite proud of myself for getting up and getting some exercise before my big day of shopping. So much for great plans! It started to rain when I was about 3.5 miles from home...hard rain. By the time I got home I looked like a drowned rat. I couldn't even come in the house. George brought me a towel and I undressed in the garage and wrapped up and hurried into a warm shower.
It looked like it was going to be a rainy yucky day, but by the time Rhoda (Southern Hospitality) and I met for coffee at Panera Bread, the rain stopped and the sun came out and it was beautiful. So glad!
We really had fun shopping even though we both mainly just looked.
I loved this cute sign. How adorable is she?! Just look at those cute chubby cheeks...don't you just want to pinch them? I think this should be on a billboard for the Emeral Coast. 
Rhoda and I always have a good time.
We had lunch at The Back Porch and was seated right by the window and the view was awesome. The food is always good. We both had the "bronzed" grouper sandwich with fries and coleslaw. So yummy! (Bronzing is between grilled and blackened.)
It's always hard to get a good photo by the window, but I had to try.
I was surprised the water looked as good as it did since we've had so much rain lately. Bad weather usually churns things up for a few days. As you can see, the waves were pretty strong today.~~~~~~
I didn't take many photos while we were shopping, but Rhoda did, so you'll have to visit her blog when she gets back next week. Here's just a few I took:
I couldn't talk Rhoda into this funky chicken chair, but doesn't she look cute sitting in it? LOL
This artist uses old license plates. I LOVED this dog piece. Loved it! Wish I had a spot for it, but I don't.
Thanks for a good time Rhoda! I really appreciate your taking time out of your vacation to spend a day with me. I hope you and Peter have a wonderful time this week.~~~~~~
Okay, I better get busy and go pack. I'm leaving in the morning to go to my Mom's until Saturday. We're having a Girls Get Away for all the girls in the family...so you know what that means, right? Yep, lots of food, drinks, games, and giggles. Bree is coming too this time, so we're all excited about that.
Ta ta for now...I'll be back on Saturday.
Hugs and kisses,
Kat

I know y'all had a fun time... I am just envious that I wasn't able to be there with you.
There you go making me jealous again with all those yummy beach pics! But what a fun day, Kat. I think I need to pray for myself about learning to be content where I am! Enjoy your girls weekend...Kathy
It looks like you had such fun and you two are so cute together!
Glad you had a fun day and your weekend sounds like a ton of fun. Have a few cocktails for me.
Oh I bet that was so much fun!
I read both of your blogs! I LOVE THEM BOTH! I have gone back to school so I am spending less time on this computer. BUT... I also make time to read both of your blogs. Nancy from OHIO
You and Rhoda look fabulous! Glad you had a great time shopping. Have a really good time at the Girls Get Away. I know you will though when it comes to the games and giggles. We'll be here when you get back. xxoo
What a great fun day. That grouper sandwich sounds yummy! I'm so happy to hear about the girls getaway and that Bree will be there too. You are so lucky to have your mom close by to celebrate with. Have fun.
You two are toooooo cute. Wish I could have been there to eat some of those fries!
Kat, you and Rhoda look like sisters together. You both are too cute!!!! I know you had a great day being with each other. I enjoy reading each of your blogs! The weekend getaway with your Mom, Bree and the other ladies in your family sounds like so much fun!!!!! I just love a great ladies weekend away. My weekend at the beach this past week was awesome! This weekend I am going to the mountains to see my parents, my sister and her family and my youngest daughter, Adelaide. I can't wait! I love to go, whenever I have the chance.
Safe travels while you are away. Enjoy!!! Love & blessings from NC!

Kat,
Those are darling photos of you and Rhoda. You both are so cute! Thanks for sharing your day with us. Makes me want to be there.

I loved looking at all the pics. The old license plates art is fantastic! I LOVE that, but like you, I have no place to put it. I am glad that you and Rhoda have such good times together. I wish I lived in the South. I would love to shop with you too! It has been quite a few years since I have been down there.
You sure have some nice looking friends; Rhoda is one beautiful lady.
Have fun at your moms.....
Great pictures!! You girls are just the cutest, and yes, you could pass for sisters!
I just know you're having the grandest time with your girl relatives. I'm so glad Bree can join you too.
What a great day with Rhoda. Have fun until we hear from you again. :)
