Goddess Update: Goddess Carole will be a Grammie

I just wanted you all to know that Goddess Carole has not been joining us ... she has been attending to some exciting developments in her life. If you remember back to one of Carole's first few moon parties...she wanted grand children. Well her intentions have come true. She is going to be a "Grammie" this winter. Her son and daughter in law are expecting their first baby in the fall of this year. Its a baby girl and they will name her Abbie.

She's sorry she has had to miss the last few moon parties, but she has been traveling to colorado to help her son and his wife prepare for the new arrival. We are delighted that her dreams have come true and we look forward to Carole joining us again when her schedule allows.

I'll keep you posted of updates from time to time and surely provide photos of baby Abbie when she arrives!

Congratulations Carole!

July Full Moon: More Photos

Here are a few more photos from the full moon.

Mermaid Moon: July 2009 "Passion, Joy & Celebration"

Pictures are worth 1,000 words...Yet there are only three words to describe last night's wonderful Mermaid Moon Party:
Passion, Joy and Celebration! We were all coming off the emotional roller coaster of Michael Jackson's heartfelt Funeral and Shannon and I had been driving around all day listening to the Jackson Five and Michael's greatest hits, we were on a natural high wanting to Celebrate Life and our Gifts. We felt like Dancing. "Do you think Julie will let us Dance tonight?" asked Shannon...
I replied "Of course."
In tune as we all are, Shan and I came up the path to Julie's house hearing familiar Motown beats coming from her open Window. It was then we were greeted at the door by an absolutely glowing Goddess in all her dancing glory. "Woo Hoo" the party was on.
The horderves and Mermaid Theme were laid out impeccably. We took it all in as Shannon moved into DJ mode, while I set up my Mixologist station to concoct an ethereal Blue Mermaid Martini.

Julie with ease and grace prepared our Catch of the Day, a delicious Salmon, broiled to perfection! Jenna arrived in a bright coral ensemble radiating her usual sunny attitude.

We drank and laughed and enjoyed a visual of Under the Sea Jellyfish on Julie's big screen TV. A fitting backdrop for Mermaids.

After Dinner we cleared the table for our Rose Champagne Tea, and Mango Sorbet while delighting in a Gratitude Exercise that could only be perfected by the orchestration of Miss Julie. She hand made us Whimsical and Sparkly Mermaid Moon candles, complete with Merman Matches and enough affirmations to charge the flames.

The evening concluded with a visit from Julie's new beau, Andy. Who was honored to be a rare male presence in such a gathering. We joked and laughed and Took to the Dance floor, doing silly routines and allowing Shannon to Choreograph a little Mermaid Routine, complete with Ripples and Mermaid Arms. LOL! Andy was a good sport taking our photos and playing along with the silliness. Poor guy. I felt like he was the only Boy being initiated into a GIRLS ONLY TREE HOUSE CLUB
All and All we have never laughed so hard, danced so joyfully, or felt so deeply as we did This Mermaid Moon...and I think we owe a lot of it to Julie and just a little bit to The King of Pop...for reminding us to LIVE LIFE IN LOVE to THE FULLEST OF OUR CAPACITY!!
