Yes everyone! I still think of myself as a young girl. [Cease snickering here]
This past weekend can be summed up in one word: Satisfying.
It was a completely satisfying weekend surrounded by very good friends and family all weekend long.
It began Friday as I met someone I consider to be near and dear to my heart for a delicious lunch at Mama Santa's in Little Italy. I had not seen this friend in at least a month.
I knew it would be a great afternoon as I got a parking spot right in front of Mama Santa's --in Little Italy --at 1230pm --on a Friday. Are you kidding me???????
You know you have those friends you may not speak with or even see but when you finally get together it's like you were never apart. I can go so far as to say sometimes I get those butterflies in my stomach with this friend. It's nice.
Saturday was my oldest niece's birthday party surrounded by our closest family members at her beautiful home. Of course, there was delicious food --more than enough to keep us all happy as we spent the entire evening together watching the Browns, playing scrabble, laughing, joking, listening to great music and just 'hanging out.' I understand that phrase now as we literally just sat on her new deck and gazed up at the planets & stars by the fire pit making smores 'hanging out.'
And Sunday, I saw a wonderful friend I had not seen since he left my church as Choir Director and Organist. We all gathered for little Jack's 2nd birthday party at a west side metro park. I was honored that Kay and Tyson invited me! We have all seen little Jack grow since he was born.
I'm telling you --the way to go! Enjoying the outdoors with good friends on a beautiful Cleveland summer night. Perfect ending to a perfect weekend!
