Weekends are special in general. However, nobody enjoys weekends more than working moms. And long weekends are even better!
Last weekend my mother surprised us by coming to town to celebrate my daughter's graduation from pre-school. Having her there to share the experience with us warmed my heart so much and made the little one very happy too!
That evening, I attended a neighborhood party. I was able to chat with the ladies in the neighborhood, laugh, and drink a lot of wine. There's nothing like a neighborhood party to brighten up your evening. You don't have to drive there. So, it's more relaxed. I actually never even put my shoes on!
Saturday included more partying! My daughter's god mother had a birthday party in Washington, DC and since I am me, I had to be there! Andre was unable to go because he is still remodeling our house. However, my mom decided to make the trip. So, she and the kids and I made the trek to DC. And, we had a ball!
I hadn't been to a party in a while. And this one had all of the elements of a great one! The music was pumping. They played songs we danced to in college. The people were well dressed. It was at a swanky place. The drinks were flowing. I was able to see some old friends. I also thought my outfit came together nicely.
The following day, my daughter was able to spend some quality time with her god mother and her parents. And we made it to see the White House.
Even though we did a lot, I went to bed smiling on Sunday night. And the pleasant memories made Monday easier to handle.
Here's to great weekends!
