I arrived earlier than usual because I had to leave early in order to be at the Author's Tea in Whitney's class by 2:00. Eva was at a makeup day of preschool so Michelle and I had a very quiet house to ourselves. We had so much to catch up on since she'd been in Colorado for 6 days, that I'd been there almost an hour before we even realized we didn't have any music playing (unheard of for us!).
Michelle made salt-encrusted potatoes for lunch, these are always good.
We were moving in slow motion because we were both so tired, but we still managed to get some things done. We snacked on the Trader Joe treats Lisa sent for us, man were they good.
Michelle gave me these monogrammed notepads she'd bought at Michael's, aren't they cute?
I ended up making and writing 7 cards, which isn't too shabby considering how slowly I was moving.
**Are you planning any trips this summer?
Do you schedule make-up sessions with
friends if you know you're going to be gone?
Do you enjoy baked potatoes?
Does your make-up stay on all day?**

I loved our catching-up session. And I can't really stand the thought of going a month without getting together...
Hooray for your family trip out to Illinois & Michigan! I am so glad you are getting to go. How fun for your family.
So sad & unreal how long it will be until your next day with michelle.
I will be devestated if you can't blog for that whole time!!!
PLEAse tell me you will be blogging!?
I absolutely love baked potatoes...those look so good. In the summer I make them in the crockpot & they are so moist- yum. My make up NEver stays on all day & I am trying to learn to reapply so I don't look like a wreck, but generally feel like a wreck- so I guess it works ;)
The potatoes look delicious and the notepads are cute. I am a complete sucker for notepads and paper, etc. I love that you and Michelle are so committed to these Friday get togethers.
I don't know what you are talking about when you say your make-up doesn't stay on. I clearly see make-up in that picture! If that's what you look like when you don't get ready for the day, you are one lucky girl. What are you going to Illinois and Michigan for? I hope this Creative Friday was enough to power you through the trip!
I could not believe my eyes when I saw the monogramed notepads! I was just at Michael's yesterday and saw those in addition to tiny notebooks with pens, note cards and monogrammed journals! Guess who's initial I included the stash?!...I guess this would indicate that I have good taste since Michelle got them too, right?
When you get low on those sticky notes, let me know! :) Just know that I was thinking about you...
Are you excited to be leaving for SEVERAL weeks? I don't know that several weeks away from home would be that appealing to me...
My makeup never stays on in this tropical paradise!
Yes, we are planning a huge road trip from Florida to Michigan and many points in between. My son and his wife live in Ann Arbor.
Have fun as you hit the road!
Such good times you two have together! I love bake potatoes and eat them several times a week.
I think we've just taken our one and only trip for the summer.
I'm way behind on crop nights with my friends and we definitely need a make-up time.
I want one of those salt-encrusted potatoes NOW.
My makeup usually stays on all day, provided I don't have a crying jag.
Your sessions with Michelle always seem productive. 7 notes ready to be dropped in the mailbox is no small feat.
My boyfriend and I love salt encrusted baked tatties. Loaded with bacon, cheese, sour cream, and broccoli. My youngest daughter's nickname is Potato. Addicted much?
I hope you and your family enjoy your trip! As for our trips, we're just hoping to make it to the dunes so the man can get his sandy, lung filling gas/oil flavored oxygen, sun burning, vision blinding ATV fix.
My makeup usually stays put all day. I also don't use any foundation or blush and such. My bottom eyeliner does fade a bit though. I'm totally in love with Covergirl and Maybeline long lasting lip color. Total life and stress saver not worrying if my lips are drastically pale.
WHat a sad title... but glad you're getting a vacation too! I'm taking the kids to Michigan this summer- probably in July since we don't get out of school til June 24th!!
You guys are so devoted to each other. I don't have friends around that I get together with on any type of regular basis.
Those potatoes look so good, I think I will have a baked potato tonight!
I don't wear much makeup- but what I doesn't really last all day.
Looks like a productive day!!
Goodness! Those potatoes look fabulous! I love anything salt-encrusted!! What is the secret? Kosher salt? Enough of that....
Looks like you had a fun day catching up and productive as usual. Michelle has already told me that she will be in withdrawal during your extended time away!
That is way to long of a break for CF- ouch! I am glad your family is going to get away though!
I love a good baked potato ...potatoes in general are at the top of my favorite foods list.
I think you both look cute in that picture, so I don't know what you are talking about with the make-up!
i struggle with makeup, i really resent that it has to be a part of my life.
i'm not a potato person, unless they're fried, of course. my drug of choice is pasta.
