Weekend get-a-way

I spent last weekend having a wonderful get-a-way at Heritage in dorm with Krystle. She decided this summer to stay in Cambridge and work at Imagine Adoption.
Here is her room for the summer.

Krystle's been able to come home a few weekends out of each month and I enjoy our girl time at home, but this time I needed to get away.

We started our weekend by inviting my sister Becky to join us at Starbucks and we enjoyed a venti tazo chai tea latte and of course we chatted it up.

Two hours later we thought it was time for supper, so we headed off to East side Mario's and had dinner and much more conversation. Krystle showed her apartment to Aunt Becky and we chatted some more until 11:00 pm, when Becky decided it was time to head home.

Saturday morning was so relaxing, it was wonderful. We walked to the library, spent some time looking around and finally ended up borrowing a video to watch for our late night that was to come. We took time to get caught up on our reading.

Bought lunch at the Grub Pub and purchased a slice of Reece Peanut Butter Cake sprinkled with Reece's Pieces. It was delicious!

I had time to get my nails done. good job Krystle


We played games, read our books, went for an evening walk (to pick up supplies for the movie) and of course we talked and talked......

I had such a wonderful time with Krystle. Even though she is becoming an independent young woman with her own place, job and life away from me, it was wonderful to spend time together and have the opportunity to chat about this, that, and of course the other thing.

I am so thankful that Krystle & I have become friends. My daughter is one of the many joys in my life.

Blessings
