My trip home was BEYOND a vacation

One afternoon after a "disagreement" with my husband I quickly dialed my aunt and mother as I always do when I need a shoulder to cry on or just someone to listen!  Well on this day my Aunt Donna suggested a girls weekend getaway:)  Just the thought changed my entire mood and I began planning my escape to all things familiar and all the different places I was going to eat mexican food.  LOL
Needless to say my husband and I kissed and made up but I had to break the news that I was headed on a little getaway, by myself:)

My Aunt has homes in Houston and Galveston so we visited both.  From the moment she scooped me up from George Bush International I was spoiled rotten!!!!!!!!!!  We shopped til we dropped, and ate at all the finest Houston hot spots.  Tiny Boxwoods, Neimans Tea Room,  Goode Co. BBQ,  Armandos,  Papasitos, just to name a few!

One of my favorite parts of my getaway was simply being at home in her home:)))) There is nothing that compares to being surrounded by things that take you back to your childhood

I love you Aunt Donna!!!!
Thank you for the best time I have had in a long time:))
