#ColonialWilliamsburg Britain needed a way to cove #ColonialWilliamsburg Britain needed a way to cover the cost of keeping troops in their colonies after the Seven Years War, so they came up with the Stamp Act of 1765 which required certain things in everyday life to be printed on paper stamped from London, things like legal documents, newspapers, even playing cards. Thus began the domino effect that would lead to the Tea Act and subsequent Boston Tea Party. The American Revolution was in full swing. #Virginia #AmericanHistory #Historic

Last month, I got to visit Colonial Williamsburg w Last month, I got to visit Colonial Williamsburg with my family in honor of our mother’s 75th birthday this year. Williamsburg was the capital of the British Commonwealth from 1699 – 1776 until it became our nation’s capital from 1776 – 1780. Colonial Williamsburg is a reconstructed village with 3 main streets to explore resembling life in the 18th century. The 2nd photo is the Governor’s Palace.The photos are a little hazy due to smoke blowing down from the wildfires in Canada. Please enjoy the colonial architecture!#ColonialWilliamsburg #Virginia #AmericanHistory #Historic #USA
Today, our Widows' Might Fellowship committee host Today, our Widows' Might Fellowship committee hosted a "Tropical Beach Getaway" party for our ladies. We had pulled pork on a bun with fixins, homemade coleslaw & potato salad, fruit kebabs, glazed bundt cakes, Pirouettes, and rainbow sherbert. We invited our ladies to bring along an item that they'd bring to the beach with them, concealed in a beach bag for us to play 21 questions so we could guess what we each brought! Then we played "Guess That Decade" in which the ladies were shown 20 photos of swimsuits and they had to guess which decade the photo was from between the 1920s and the 1960s. Our winner Miss Evelyn was MORE than pleased with her prize - a candle warmer that looks like a gorgeous antique lamp! Our next party in August will be a special party! See ya then! 👀🥳🎂
Homeless Bound in France: Adventures of a Bestie | Homeless Bound in France: Adventures of a Bestie | After leaving a bad relationship, Rachel was about to be homeless. She had worked so hard for this dream, but you can't stay on a work visa and live on the streets. If she didn't find a place to live in a week, her time in France might be up.

Our theme for our last widows party was Lemonade a Our theme for our last widows party was Lemonade at the Strawberry Patch. We had a strawberries word search, "what's your lemonade name," "Name That Cake," and a round of Spill the Tea questions. My lemonade name was Lady Amber Petal Lemon. We had 3 flavors of lemonade, pinwheel sandwiches, deviled eggs, cookies, and homemade strawberry shortcake. In 6 weeks, our next party will be a beach getaway theme. #Widows #Friends #Party
My mother turned 75 this year and is not in great My mother turned 75 this year and is not in great physical condition. I've decided to get her to start exercising, so I put together a little #workout for her. Today was our first day to try it out. We started with an arm workout using 1lb weights. She did awesome sweatin' to the oldies and feels good about it! I'm so proud of her! But she refuses to take photos 😂 We're going to do a leg workout on Wednesday 🦵#Exercise
