So,
last week my sisters, who were in Florida visiting our mom’s
husband Jimmy, contacted me and asked if Megan and I wanted to meet
up with them on their way back to Massachusetts. They were going to
stop at my niece Jessie’s house which is 2 hours from us. Of course
I said yes!
They
were getting a hotel room to stay at and offered to let us sleep
there too, so we’d have more time together.
Megan
and I packed our bags for an overnight stay and left at 3:00 Friday
afternoon.
It
took us 3 hours instead of 2 because I got lost towards the end and
backtracked across several towns a few times. I totally panicked
because I don’t have a GPS in my car, but was on the phone with
Philip, him trying to calm me and guide me to Jessie’s street.
We
all met at Jessie’s and right away they took us out to eat at the
Golden Corral. It was so big, like the Disney World of buffet
restaurants!
Afterwards
we went to the hotel room, where Megan immediately staked her claim.
She
brought some of her dollhouse people to play with, and made a
growling face at me when I took another picture!
We
took lots of photos and talked and laughed…Jessie and Kris...
Jessie
and Susan…
Megan
and her bestie cousin Jessie!
Megan,
Susan, Kris, and me.
After
Jessie’s friend took her back to her house, we watched Live PD and
went to sleep. In the morning I said goodbye to Kris and Susan, who
wanted to get on the road early as they had a long drive back to Mass
ahead of them. Megan was too sleepy to wake up!
Megan
and I ate breakfast and drove on home, tired but happy from our
wonderful special trip. Back to regular everyday life, which isn’t
so bad with all the little special times sprinkled in like jimmies on
a sundae. :-)
