Auntie Sarah - We Love You

Lena Kate and I had a wonderful weekend visiting my bff Sarah in Franklin, TN this past weekend. It was so nice to get to see her again and have some of those wonderful girl-to-girl conversations that are just not the same unless they are face-to-face. We went to Logan's for lunch. Sarah is the Accounting Director so we got to sample as much yummy food as we could on her food stipend. My favorite was the two yummy mini-desserts. Lena Kate enjoyed licking the salt off of peanuts-dont worry, she is not allergic and I didn't let her put them all the way in her mouth! This was after we worked up quite an appetite on a long walk and then a grueling workout. P90X kicked my behind! I now have that hurts so good soreness. Then we spent the afternoon piddling around downtown Franklin. It is such a neat town with fun boutique shopping and a great little cooking shop. LK was a hit everywhere we went and she is such a flirt just smiling at EVERYONE. I don't know how many times I get asked, "Is she always this happy?" Fortunately for me, she is! That evening we had Sarah's sweet husband Keith pick up pizza for dinner and we watched chick flicks in their great room while Lena Kate played. It was just the perfect day of fun and fellowship between two soul sisters. Thanks to Keith for letting me have Auntie Sarah for the weekend! Then on Sunday we went for another walk and worked out again before we all loaded up and went to lunch at Barbara's which was this great homecooking restaurant. We sat outside at a patio table. It was just delightful - what can beat fried chicken, fried okra, and creamed corn?! On Sunday afternoon we stopped by this greeat cupcake shop in downtown Franklin for some of the prettiest cupcakes. They were quite tasty and I got a cute t-shirt too. You can see me model it while posing with the sweet cakes in the slideshow. We relaxed Sunday night and just spent some quality time hanging out. Lena Kate was a doll the whole weekend and Sarah and Keith really enjoyed her as well. She was also a good little travel partner. Fortunately neither flight was booked so I got to have a seat for her to play in too. I'm so fortunate to be able to go visit Sarah- so thanks to Lane for letting his girls go for the weekend. I enjoyed every second and can't wait to see Sarah again. It makes me sad to think it will be too long, no matter how soon we are together again. We just really get each other...and I'm sure each of you know how special those friends are and how hard they are to come by. Thanks again to Sarah and Keith for having us and making us feel right at home. We love you and my God bless you now and forever!

Here is a glimpse into our weekend together. People often ask if we are sisters. I like to think that we are soul sisters:)
