Weekending
5/09/2016
Happy Monday friends! Hope everyone had a fabulous weekend! Since my parents were here mine was a fairly busy one (not that I'm complaining since I don't get to see them often) so I have lots to recap on today's post. So bear with me as this is going to be a picture heavy post but hey, that means less reading, right? Linking up with Biana for our weekend recap!
I'll start with Thursday since that was my technical start to the weekend. Thursday my parents, Kerri, the boys and I all headed out to our favorite local Mexican joint for some delicious food, margaritas and maybe a shot of tequila because why not? We called it a fairly early night because 1. I'm old and 2. Most everyone had to wake up early the next morning for work.
Friday I had a half day at work so I got to hang out with my parents a bit before we headed downtown for drinks and the Orlando City Soccer Club game against the New York Red Bull. My parents are huge soccer fans so it was fun to get to experience this with them and even though we tied it was still really fun!
Saturday morning my mom and I headed to the spa for mother/daughter facials to celebrate Mother's Day. This is the first one I've gotten to spend with her in years so it was really great to get to spend some mother/daughter time with her. After our facials we headed over to a local Belgian bar for some more soccer before heading out to dinner and das boot!
Sunday we went to lunch for Mother's Day then mom and we did some shopping before heading home and relaxing for the rest of the day. You never realize how much you miss your parents until you only get to see them a few times a year. Even if I did spend the weekend watching more soccer than I've watched in my entire life ;) It was fun getting to take them out to all of our favorite restaurants and just get to spend time with them.
Sadly they're leaving to head home already but I had an amazing weekend with them and I'm so thankful to have gotten the time with them! I already can't wait until they visit again!

ReplyDeleteI bet it was so nice to get such fun filled weekend with your parents and friends! Do you parents live far away? Or is their job so busy it's hard for them to travel?
