Dorothy Draper Heaven

In three weeks my in-laws are taking us to The Greenbrier. Thank you Papa John and Gigi! By "us" I mean everyone except Butterball. He's not really resort material.

I can't wait to see all the fabulous Dorothy Draper decor.

It's like Willy Wonka married a Southern gal with strong ties to the Junior League.

In preparation, I bought Cricket this adorable dress and

These sandals. I tried to squeeze myself into a bigger size in the dress and shoes. No luck. So here's the question-what's mama going to wear?

  6. My sister went last fall and said it is amazing. Every detail is thought out, from the doorknobs to the heating vents. Enjoy!

  10. "It's like Willy Wonka married a Southern gal with strong ties to the Junior League." That is soooo darn funny!! You crack me up! Now, as to dressing Mama... How about a pretty little Lilly Pulitzer shift with Jack Rodgers sandles? I find that I can never really go wrong when I stick with the classics. The Greenbriar is amazing... take lots of photos!
