Well, I certainly had a good weekend. My mom’s party was a smashing success (if I do say so myself). After a lot of planning, phone consultations, and work on Saturday, Alyssa, Elizabeth and I put on a quite a special party for Rose’s 50th birthday. If you click on the photo album “Telfer and Andrea,” you can see more pictures from the party. Really, it couldn’t have been any better or more fun (well, the “cooked” carrots could have been a little less crunchy…but perfection is overrated). My mom had a wonderful time and was so appreciative – she made the work worthwhile!
I also got to “lunch” with my friend Molly in Seattle on Friday. She is quite the accomplished fashion designer and works at Nordstrom’s headquarters. She is going to be very successful – I can feel it. We have not been able to spend much time with each other in the last few years…
I picked up a leaf on the street in Seattle to remind myself that fall is indeed real – I miss the seasons living in California. To celebrate fall, Telfer and I even had a caramel apple cider at the Starbucks in North Bend (our regular stop between Olympia/Seattle and Richland).
