Ladies who lunch

Carson Kressley- he was hilarious and very entertaining and good fashion advice- for example- leggings are not pants- you MUST wear something long over them! See below for the explanation!
Ladies who lunch....I was part of that group today (or I pretended to be). I was invited to a charity lunch for Voices for Children which is a charity for the protection of Child Abuse Victims. It was REALLY fun! It was in downtown Dallas, which proved to be quite a feat to get to on Veteran's day. There was a very long parade going on in the heart of downtown. It was going on when we got there and still going on when we left. The challenge was getting across the street to Union Station. We had to ask a police officer to stop the parade so we could run across the street. I am sure we looked funny- 5 ladies in high heels running across in front of the Marines and behind the Shriners. We had lunch provided by Wolfgang Puck which was delicious and then the celebrity speaker was Carson Kressley, a stylist and comedian that has did the tv show "How to look good naked" and "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy". It was so much fun and I am so lucky to be invited! I was a little stressed about what to wear- it is November BUT we are in Texas- so are open toe shoes ok? Sleeveless? I went ahead and wore the shoes but I did think about it for a while to see if was a major fashion faux-pau! It was definitely an event to be seen- the magazine Modern Luxury was there as well as D Magazine! Now back to reality- homework, one with a tummy ache, and one wearing only a diaper eating mac & cheese! I really do appreciate my family after going to something like that where everyone seems all about themselves! It makes me realize that my main purpose is to raise children who love the Lord and have servants hearts!
