We’re just days away from our big celebration, ladies! I can’t believe it’s almost here. There are about 500 of you coming, which is going to make for a really fun group. I’d like to share a few last minute things with you.
1) Siesta Anne told us that some Siestas have decided to wear pink feather boas while they’re traveling and once they’re in Houston so that they can easily recognize each other. They asked me to let all the Siestas know so that everyone can join in the fun. We’ve heard that Michaels and Hobby Lobby might be good places to look for those. Siesta Teri even came up with a verse to support the boas. (If anyone needs an extra verse to memorize last minute, here you go!)
“He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.” (Psalm 91:4)
Love it!
2) We sent out an email earlier this month with information on how to order a Siesta SMT Celebration t-shirt. We know that some of you did not get this email because it was caught in your spam filter and we’re so sorry about that. It is too late to order a t-shirt, but we will have a few extras available for purchase at the resource table on Friday evening.
3) Beth will be dressing casually this weekend and she welcomes you to do the same.
4) The most frequently asked question we’ve had is where to eat Mexican food. That makes me laugh so hard, y’all!
Here are my picks for Tex-Mex close-ish to the church.
Pappasito’s
Escalante’s
Guadalajara
Ninfa’s on Post Oak
Houston girls, am I leaving something out?
If you love fine Chinese food and you happen to be at the Galleria, my current favorite is Gigi’s Asian Bistro, which is located in the mall.
Oh my word, I am so hungry right now!
If you’re here on Thursday night and want to splurge on a great steak, we have a great restaurant called Taste of Texas. If you go on a weekend night you’ll have a very long wait, which is why Thursday night might be best.
5) Don’t forget your Scripture spirals!
6) Here’s a link to our Siesta SMT Celebration FAQ page in case anyone has a question.
Friday can’t come soon enough!
Love,
Amanda
