Girls Weekend

What a weekend...I was finally able to get away with the girls!! It was my first weekend away from Hudson, but I must admit, it was a little easier than I thought since he was with Kevin. Friday afternoon I headed to the lake with Allison to meet Melissa and Jodi! And for a night on the town at Lake Martin, where else do you go...but Niffer's! (For those who don't live in Auburn, a trip to Niffer's is coveted!) It was great as always - although Allison's pea-sized potato and three pieces of lettuce left something to be desired...good thing margaritas and girly snacks were back at the cabin! Most of Saturday was spent eating (of course) and scrapbooking! All of us were in desparate need and boy did we scrapbook! I finally finished Hudson's first year book!! YEA!! Now I just have all of 2007 to do! Oh, well...isn't that what Kindegarten days are for! :-)

Allison, Melissa, Me, Jodi

In grand form, we did have a little excitement...last year the fire department was called...this year...we needed a snake wrangler! Yes...SNAKE!! Jodi happened to glance outside and notice a FOUR FOOT snake right next to the window! So, what do girls do...scare it off of course! Well, no one will be calling us to "scare" off a snake anytime soon. As we start throwing things, stomping, clapping - anything - the snake slithers its way to Allison's car then under her car then UP her car!!!! After we are guaranteed the snake CANNOT get into the car from underneath, Jodi gets brave and hops in...she backs up and nothing then goes forward tapping the brakes and guess what...apparently snakes don't like bumps - he scurried from underneath the car quite quickly and into the woods!! Yea for Jodi!!

Thanks girls for a wonderful weekend! Like I told Allison, maybe we can get away twice a year instead of only once!
And good news Lake Martin goers...water is up and beautiful.
