Last April my friend Amie and I had a lovely weekend planned. We were going to Portland for the weekend. We had our flights and hotel booked. We were going to do it all! We were so excited. A couple days before we were to leave, Amie called to tell me she wouldn't be able to go because she had been diagnosed with cancer.
Needless to say, I couldn't mourn the cancellation of the trip, I was too upset about the cause.
Amie put up an amazing fight. She has always been strong, but taking a look all her family has been through this last year is crazy! It would make anyone cry, "Uncle!"
Well, the time was right. So we decided to stay closeby and go to my sisters house in Park City.
I could detail everything we did over the weekend, but it wouldn't matter. You wouldn't understand how needful, theraputic, wonderful, and relaxing it was for me.

Coming out of Whole Foods, Amie looks like a flippin' model!
Reading is gooooooood!
Amie is THE MOST AMAZING guitar player!Temple, shopping, singing, dancing, shopping, eating, chick flicks, reading, talking, laughing, playing, hot tubbing, enjoying the lack of responsibility.
I have been feeling for awhile that I am not fun anymore. I am so busy being "Mom" that I forget sometimes that I am also, "Melissa". It was so fun to be Melissa this weekend, and be with amazingly fun people!

Looks like so much fun! I'm only a little jealous . . . ok, a lot. Glad you had a good time, you deserve it!
I am so glad you had a great time! Cute pictures
I think remembering our first names is one of the hardest things to do as a mother.
Glad you had a great time!
I want to know why you didn't post the dancing videos?
