Girl's Weekend!

Last weekend we had our 5th annual Danieley L 103 reunion!  We were in St. Louis this year and were lucky enough to stay at Ellen's in-law's lake house.  It was so much fun and such a nice little getaway!

(Backtrack:  Reagan's last day of school was on Wednesday...Wednesday afternoon was spent packing, organizing because on Thursday morning my mom was driving up to PA with me and the kiddos so that she and John could watch the kids while I was away for the weekend.  Keith flew to Rochester for Alex's First Communion the same weekend...soooo there was quite a bit of planning involved!  We arrived in PA on Thursday afternoon, went for a nice walk, unpacked, and then I had a 7:45 flight out of Philadelphia on Friday morning.  Busy, busy!)
Getting ready for dinner on Friday night!

The girls in black :)


Poor Ellen had a lovely case of what we thought was poison ivy...she woke up Saturday morning with a swollen eye and everything seemed to be spreading.  SOOO we found a local urgent care and got the girl some meds to help it all go away.  The doctor was SO sweet and showed Elle a picture of the three different poisons and it turns out it was poison sumac that she had.

After a trip to urgent care it was time for the boat!  BJ drove down to the lake on Saturday morning to take us out on their family's boat for the day.  It was such a perfect day on the lake!  We saw some HUGE, I mean HUGE, houses that were beautiful and even docked at a restaurant for some lunch.  It was just such a fun day!


This guy....we were feeding him some snacks and then he decided he wanted to hop on the back of the boat!  I about panicked, which apparently was a nice little joke to try to lure him into the boat with some more snacks.  Thankfully he jumped off and got back in the water, but it was pretty funny!

We had an awesome dinner at the condo Saturday night, thanks to Elle and BJ.  We got a movie on demand, but of course I passed out within minutes...jet lag :)  Sunday we had breakfast and then had to head on out to get back to St. Louis for flights back home.  My flight was a little later, so I was able to go back to Elle's to see sweet Connor and play for a little bit before I flew back to Philly to get my kiddos from Mum-Mum and Pop-Pop. 

It was such a fun weekend and always nice to get together and pick right back up where you left off with good friends!  Love you girls!  Next year...Chicago!! :)
