A Mom Getaway

    Last weekend I went away with four friends for a much needed moms’ weekend. We shopped, ate out, played games and laughed a lot! I feel so fortunate to have such a wonderful group of friends that I can talk to, celebrate with, commiserate with and laugh with. They are such an important part of my life-every mom needs friends like these.

    While I was away, the girls and dad had the weekend together. Ty got together with one of the other dads and planned a slumber party for our two girls and his three. Ty, Tori and Ally shopped for snacks, grabbed a pizza and got the house ready for guests. While the friends were over, they had dinner, watched a movie, played the Wii, played princess and had a great time. In the morning Ty made waffles for the group while the kids had some more time to play together. Once the friends left Ty and the girls cleaned the house and got ready from my return.

    I returned home a rested and relaxed mom. When I arrived, the house was clean house and the kids were happy. I am so thankful that I had the time away with friends and that Ty went out of his way to provide a fun weekend for the girls. I am blessed!
