Laura's visit to SG. Oh, by the way, Laura's new name is officially Lu. Do not call her Laura. That was Alex's request which we ignored. Sorry, Alex! Laura arrived at Cara's beach cottage at 9 p.m. Tuesday night. She was greeted by Bem, Alana, Janna and Me. We stayed up until 1:00 a.m. Wednesday we all headed out to lunch to the usual, Pasta Factory. It was good. The bread was exceptionally good! We then headed over to Alana's new "Better Homes and Gardens" pad. Whoever Alana hired as her ID (interior designer) I've got to use her for my place. We all just lounged and watched Anika and Emmet go crazy. We all broke for naps around 3ish. We then came back over to my pad and feasted on Panda Express. Boy, can we eat! That's all we do. After din/din, we headed over to Bem's so Brandon and Mike could take apart Bem's dining table to send back to Pier 1. It's not for sure but there is a rumor out there that Brandon is considering building Bem her own BL table. After hanging at Bem's all the girls returned to my place and watched a little American Idol and played our new favorite game with Lu. Our new favorite game is guessing answers from Lu's Bar prep course book. It's quite fun! Anyway, Lu left my house this morning at 9ish. She is headed to her sister's house in Colorado, a ten-hour drive, yuck! It was great having her here.

Well, for those who havn't seen my "beach cottage" here are a few photos. The Ikea chairs were a new addition just this week. I am thrilled with the new chairs. The really enhance the look of the table, don't you think?
