Mother/Daughter Weekend










16 women. One cabin. Three days. Location: Idllywild, CA.  GREAT fun!!!

On Friday, I picked up my BEAUTIFUL mother from the Ontario airport, we ate lunch at a yummy restaurant, and then headed up to the cabin.  There were 16 of us, and we were all related.  Mother/daugher, sister/cousin, aunt/niece.  The first night, we stayed in and Kathleen made DELICIOUS fish tacos.  This night included lots of laughing, loud music, nine of us going in the spa on the deck, and some simultaneous card games.  

The next day eight of us took a hike and spent the rest of the relaxing.  I was able to read, take a LONG nap, and just enjoy God's creation.  IT EVEN RAINED WHILE I READ AND SIPPED TEA!!!  Our Saturday night was celebrated at a wonderful restaurant with outdoor music.  More music, dessert, and games followed once we got home.

On Sunday, we all sat around (drinking coffee and eating Aunt Donna's EXCELLENT egg dish) and  visited until it was time to pack up and leave.  By this time, my heart was ACHING for Dan back home.  After we left, Mom and I had went again for yummy lunch, I dropped her off at the airport, and then drove home.  What a treat it was to spend three days with family!  A "just because" treat!  Thank you, Mother for loving me and giving me these opportunities.  I LOVE YOU, and praise God for YOUR love and OUR relationship!!!
