Girl's trip!

It is very rare that myself, my mother and sister spend time together much less without rug rats pulling on our legs.  So we decided to plan a girl's trip (kid free!) last weekend to go see my Granny and Aunt Shannon in Tyler.  We got to take my new car too and it rode great!

We picked up my sister from Conroe/Woodlands on Friday morning and we were off! SO MUCH CONSTRUCTION on 45! We were at a standstill for about 20 minutes due to the lanes going down to one! But we pushed through and stopped and ate in Centerville.

Then we were back on the road.  Now this part gets interesting! My mom has been to my Granny's house several times and I have not been in over 4 years so I was a little unfamiliar with where we were going.  My mom had her trusty note card of directions (and I my navigation system in my car I had never used) so I thought we would be ok! We are just driving along, talking and I realize we are on this same road for a good long while now.  Then I see a sign that says we are going to Dallas! We drove like almost 40 minutes out of the way! Oh well, we turned back around and got back on track.

We got to my Granny's house around 3:30pm (it felt like we were on the road forever!) I was so tired. Homemade pizza and games were on the agenda that night.  It felt great to laugh and actually get to talk with everyone.  I even stayed up late....until about 11!

I woke up the next morning at 9:30am and it was glorious! We were going to do some shopping and eat lunch in the big town of Tyler!

We headed home but had to stop at the grocery store to get what else but ice cream of course!
We watched a movie, ate some ice cream (way too much!) and played more games.
It was a great weekend and I really enjoyed the company and so amazed by my 90 year old Granny!

We are hoping to do this every year! 

Bryan and Logan had lots of fun while mommy was gone! I missed them so much!
