Aunt Baba

I felt like the luckiest girl in the world when Christa came to visit a couple weekends ago...seriously.

Let me tell you about it--

It's going to make you want to call your friend - the one who it doesn't matter how long it has been since you've seen each other, but it picks up just where you left it - and plan the exact weekend with them. I don't mind-- copy us, it will be so well worth it.

So, Saturday was a no kid kind of a day. Christa and I left the house in the morning and drove to Stillwater to have lunch and look around. Then, we drove up to St. Croix Falls and went to a spa for the most decadent facial either of us have ever have (ok, so we aren't really foo-foo gals, so this isn't saying much). They were 2 hours long each!! 2 hours of pure relaxation. Then, we drove back to Minneapolis and ate at a yummy Indian restaurant and shared a bottle of wine.

Did I mention we didn't stop talking (except for during the facial) for the entire time and we still had things to talk about on Sunday (which was equally as fun with a night out on the town with the girls- Ally, Kt, and Molly Cooney) and Monday too.

We just couldn't get enough time together. When she left, I realized the weekend was way cheaper than therapy but equally as good. Thanks, darling, for a wonderful weekend!

It was Christa's first time meeting Ruby June. Ruby was in love at first sight. Although Christa arrived to a sick household, with Kai was puking on the couch, she didn't run away. This is a real friend. She came in and entertained Kai on the couch while I tried to clean up the vomitorium. Kai cried in the car when we dropped her off at the airport which tells you how much he loved hanging out with his Aunt Baba!

Post-facial: we have that glow don't we!!??
