Road Trip

Mikayla accompanied Mom to Troy this week. I had one more day of training before beginning work with ACCESS Distance Learning program. Hopefully, I will be teaching U.S. History 1877 to Present.

My little one had such a difficult time when I left her for 4 days in March to do my initial training. The director of ACCESS suggested I bring Mikayla with me in June since it was only a one day session. She was SO GOOD! She sat in the corner on the floor all day playing with her Gameboy. From time to time, she would find me and whisper, "I'm having so much fun!" Go figure!

While we were in Troy, we ate out, went to Walmart and had her hair washed and trimmed....her first professional hair cut. We even went to a little shop and found some cute tops on clearance. The best part was eating salads and popcorn in our 2 queen beds while watching TV at night.

Girl's Day Out!

Today was our first annual Mother's Day / Girl's Day Out at the Grand Hotel. I've never been to a spa and OH MY GOSH!!!! I'm RUINED!!! We had so much fun relaxing, chatting, and just catching up. We all lead such busy lives. What a blessing it was. We had our eyebrows done and pedicures and of course, MY toes were the prettiest. (Except for my deformed big toe that was crushed when I was 12. Oh well, that's another story). Loved the steam room, hot tub and pool.

I know what I want for the next 30 birthdays, anniversaries and Christmases!!!!

Flowers! Flowers! Flowers!

I've always wanted a beautiful English garden. Well, I certainly don't claim to have accomplished that....yet! But I'm very proud of this summer's crop.
