Olivia, Libby, Kayla, Gabby, Paige, & Jenny all dressed up in Pish Posh style at Libby's house.About a year ago we got an invitation in the mail from one of Jenny's friends inviting us to join a Mother-Daughter Book Group. Six other mothers and daughters were invited to join, as well. So, last February, Jenny and I along with the other mothers and daughters started meeting and reading. We meet every 6 weeks or so and discuss a book that we all read. Of course, the group is geared to 11/12-year old reading. So far, we have read some fun and different books. The books we have read are: Sixth Grade Glommers, Norks & Me, Pish Posh, Sand Dollar Summer, Ella Enchanted, Twilight, Shakespeare's Secret, and Matilda. We take turns hostessing the group and of course there is always yummy food and drink to enjoy. At the end of each meeting, the hostess girl presents 4-5 new books and the girls vote for the next book. Our next read is interestingly enough called Mother-Daughter Book Club. Last night we met at our house. It has turned out to be such a fun way to spend time together and given us a chance to share our love of reading. Since Jenny started middle school this year, I don't get to see my mom friends as often, so this is also an opportunity to reconnect. Jenny is fortunate to have a very nice and grounded group of girlfriends whose mothers I adore, as well. At some point, I am hoping to start a group like this with Juliana and her friends, as well. Then Lacey....

What a great idea!! They all look like they are ready to walk the red carpet!
What fun that must be to do that with your daughter! I would love something like that when my girls are bigger. I'm going to keep that idea for later. I'm so glad you decided to get back into the blogging routine. This will be a great way to keep connected!
