Diana - I know you had such a good time! And the kids loved it too, I am sure. I'm pretty shy at doing things like that, I have a really hard time, so I really admire what you can do with the kids.
Janet, what a wonderful story!!! I know your mom just loved seeing her friends, I'm sure it gave her a boost. My mom gets her nails done every 3 weeks, like clockwork. Her nails are beautiful - mine on the other hand are NOT! I dig in the garden too much to have a pretty manicure!
I have to drive 500 miles for my mom to see her friends - and I'm going to do it in September. Her old school (which has been turned into a museum) is having a reunion in September and I told her I would take her. It's a long drive - but we can make it. We could fly, but we'd have to change planes once, then rent a car and drive 130 miles after we arrived, so it's not hardly worth it. It takes as long to fly/drive as it does to drive it all. I need to take a couple of pieces of furniture up to my cousin who lives along the way, so it will work out well.
I'm going to Houston tomorrow to see the kids, so my day has been filled with a little bit of work, some washing, and now I'm trying to get packed and organized.
