Mini Vacation











I went on a mini vacation this week. Wednesday morning around 6:00, I headed north to New Hampshire. The plan was to pick up my dear friend Judy and whisk her away on a short road trip. It was so great to see her looking so well after an intense bout of chemo. It was a long haul but it seems to have helped. We headed to Maine to check out the area where her brother and nephew live. Gorgeous.......right on a huge lake. Then we meandered further east to Portland, Maine. Decisions, decisions.......where to go next? Well, I just had to mention having dinner at the Muddy Moose restaurant in North Conway and Judy agreed that that should be our next destination. So, we headed west and checked into a motel for the night. Then, we headed to the Muddy Moose and had the best burgers. Yum!! After staying up late talking, we finally fell asleep. We awoke to another sunny, blue sky day. Before breakfast, I wanted to head out to take some pics of a snow covered Mount Washington. We also managed to do a little shopping before heading back to her house. It was a wonderful getaway for both of us and we can't wait to do it again. Here are some pictures............

Brayden's favorite animals at the Little Rock Zoo

We spent some time at the Little Rock Zoo with Sean and Brayden. It is a really nice zoo with lots of different animals. We were very lucky to see the animals so active. Here's Brayden's favorite video. He asked me to play it for him at least 20 times while we were there.
