Oh the joy

Last night I had the privilege of spending HOURS on end with these two lovely ladies...

Rachel & Natasha

I can't even begin to tell you how much fun we had!!  They both have 3 little ones at home, and rarely get to have a girls night.  Oh my goodness... it was just wonderful!!  FIRST we went to a lovely yarn store, then to a used book store, then to a yummy restaurant with a real, live harpist!!  We asked to be seated right next to him, and the music was so relaxing and beautiful!  We had so much fun together.  I spent more money than I probably needed to on yarn and a book, but that's ok.  Daniel wasn't mad at me ;)  

Let's do it again soon ladies!!  

This morning I went to Melissa's baby shower to celebrate the soon-to-arrive baby sprocket.  It was just lovely to see you two weekends in a row, Melissa!  I then rushed home to clean my house because I am hosting our church's supper club tonight!  It's just a ladies potluck our church has once a month at different people's houses.  I'm excited- I love having people over. And my house was mostly clean from last weeks birthday party, so as long as no one wants to go upstairs, I'm ok.  (The upstairs is so rarely clean.  But I'm ok with that.)  

Alright I have to go get started on my spinach mushroom pizza for supper club!  I hope you all are doing well out in blogger land.  :)

It was a glorious evening! I still can't believe how late we stayed out... I felt like a teenager again! Love you!

I LOVED it!!!! Terry was already asking if we should make it a regular event. YES!!!! Of course, we may have to be more budget friendly sometimes, and we definitely have to have more time when we're looking for books . . . OOOOOO I can hardly wait :-)

Yes, definitely more budget friendly! Daniel was like, "HOW much money did you spend???" :) That is very unlike me...

Did you take the new picture at the top of your blog, too? It's gorgeous! Is it from your stint in California?

Daniel said...

Mom-- yes, I took it. It's from the Japanese tea garden here in town. I did edit it a little bit, though (cropped it and brightened up the colors!). I love you!

First of all, I'm SO happy that you got some quality girl time. So much fun:) And I was wondering about the monies you spent, it is so unlike you. It was a secondhand bookstore though. And the yarn was on sale. Also, I love the picture at the top as well. I meant to comment as soon as you put it up. Missing you! Love, Aimee

Aw, what fun. Glad the mommies could have some time on their own. That is SO important! Just briefly meeting these ladies the other week they sure seem like quality friends.
