Home for a minute

We are back from Lakeside.  It is so peaceful.  
I now realize that CCYM should really be spelled W~O~R~K.  We went up there on Thursday the 12th.  We did not stop working till about 12:00 on Sunday.  Whew!  What a weekend!  I was one of the lucky ones who got to stay for the week following.  
I did enjoy some mozzarella sticks at the patio.  Katherine Pershey and I used to enjoy them almost daily when we went to Lakeside Institute as youth.  I haven't enjoyed them like that since.  Then we would complete our meal with some Toft's Ice cream.  YUMMY!  I have found my favorite Toft's flavor to be Bugaboo fudge.  WOW!  Black raspberry ice cream doused with fudge complete with mini raspberry cups.  YUM YUM YUM!!!!!  I sure hope I can enjoy it in Heaven.  It's that good!
We got to fly our kites on the dock.
I purchased my very first Vera Bradley anything while we were there.  She makes this sleeve for a curling iron (or flat iron).  I couldn't help it!  It's genius!  You can put it in hot!  
I also found some organic cotton shirts with a green Lakeside message.  So Michael and I have coordinating shirts. :)  Is that too much?  They didn't have any cute Baby green shirts so Carter didn't get one. :(  Sorry Dude.
After all that shopping I FINALLY got to see my girls!!!  Gwenn, Aunt Linda, Jadyn and Julia came to Lakeside Thursday and Friday.  It was so refreshing to see them.  It's been since October.  It's just a shame we only had 25 hours.  While they were there we did get some Sloopy's pizza and plenty of Bugaboo fudge!  Oh, and for the first time in my life, we played shuffle board!  It is a good time.  Who knew? 
Wednesday we're out again.  We are going to hang out with our Bostonian family and then we're off to Altamont for Stuart's "graduation".  
I'm sure I will have plenty to blog about from there or once we return.

I am a bit jealous. I wish I had come this year, Lakeside, Toft's, and Gwenn and co? Sounds like perfection.
