Girls night out

Friday night my friend Helen came over with two packs of Bacardi Mojitos for her and two packs B&J Pomegranate/Rasberry wine coolers for me...MMMM. According to her we needed to get drunk, I didn't protest :p. After we had a few bottles each we watched a pretty good movie then she tells me that we're going out tomorrow night because we need to let loose every once in awhile, she had invited her mom to join us and Lisa decided to come along as well so it turned into a girl's night out.

I'm so glad I went...we had a great time. We went to a Puerto Rican restaurant called Coco's. The food was orgasmic. Coming from me that says a lot ;). The atmosphere was perfect, very relaxed and friendly and the music and art completed the whole experience.

After leaving the restaurant we went to a nice Latin bar & grill called Tumbao. Another place I'd highly recommend. The band was shake your booty amazing and the drinks were nice and strong. What I liked most about the place was the fact that there were people of all ages dancing and having a good time. It's not like one of those places you go to and feel out of place because the crowd is younger. I got home at 2am a little tipsy and a lot happy.

Hope you all had a good weekend too.

When you need a hug


I've got the greatest friends in the world, they always know how to make me feel better. Whether it's a phone call from Monette or a nice visit from my other wonderful girl friends I always feel the love.
Lisa came by yesterday and brought the boys their birthday gifts and even made some yummy french toast for breakfast. She spent the afternoon with us hanging out. We watched a movie and ate some Thanksgiving leftovers, it was nice to just be home. After Lisa left my friend Helen came over and spent some time with me and the kids, we all layed in my king size bed and talked about all sorts of interesting stuff. Today, Helen surprised me and came over again just to give me a hug....she also brought me flowers and taffy apples for the family.

We are truly blessed.
