Spring Break (the 2nd half)

The saying goes, "All good things must come to an end," so I suppose that is why my Spring Break is coming to a close this evening. It is sad, I know. Spring Break will be capped off this evening with some good friends and Rock Band; not too shabby!

I had a fabulous time visiting my family and friends in St. Louis and while I got to see ALMOST everyone I wanted to see, I did miss a few friends - sorry, I did my best! In my mind I thought it would be so easy to see everyone in the course of a week, but clearly that was not able to happen...there is always next time though!

In the midst of a hot game of Scrabble!

Things I did do: I got to wine and dine with my family and friends, shop until we nearly dropped, pamper myself with a mani and pedi, saw "Sunshine Cleaning" (you must go see if it if you have not already), get some exercise, made a display board (every vaca needs an arts & crafts project), play some Scrabble and have a mini-birthday celebration for my dad! I am sure that there are some highlights I forgot to mention!

Dinner with good friends!


Out for dads b-day!


Board I put together for my mom!

I love going home and seeing everyone, relaxing on my parents couches, going through old pics (I will post some later) and watching a video of old pics from when my grandparents were probably my age - good work Aunt C! Thanks for a fantastic visit everyone! And although I said I was going home for a week, I was also looking forward in being back home with M. I guess you could say I am lucky enough to have two homes!

Ernie got a bath just before I left! It was his going away present to his favorite Auntie...me!


Back in DC and taking a moment to enjoy a gorgeous morning!
