When it comes to
mothers
I am the luckiest girl
on two feet.

My mom and I are best friends
and like all good buddies,
we love traveling
together!
{Most} every year
for 14 years,
my mom has given me
an amazing gift.
Not one that I can hold
in my hands,
but rather, one that I can
hold in my heart
long after my big day
has come and gone....
Each year we think of a
place that we'd like to visit.
Then, like a fairy godmother,
she makes it happen.

We live 1400 miles apart
{she in Washington State,
me in the Midwest}
so it takes a bit of magic
to pull the whole thing off.
Especially because we are
both leaving our own households
to run on auto-pilot for a while.
This was trickier when my children
were younger and we weren't
near family,
but my in-laws flew to the rescue!

Here are some of the
marvelous places we have visited.....
THE CITY of cities: New York

The Rose City ~ Portland, Oregon |
Charming Savannah, Georgia
This was a fun year!
A Spa in Minnesota ~ Saw 'lots of these
Santa Fe was a dream
Fell in love with the gates of Charleston
New Orleans was jazzy
Victoria, BC....Now we're international
This was the Prior House, our B and B in Victoria
Our last getaway....Carmel, California
I couldn't take enough pictures of the flowers in Carmel!
Yes, I'm a lucky girl.
It's birthday trip time, again.
I'm leaving today.
Someone wants to know
where I've gone......
I'll be sending you some postcards.
Come visit this weekend!
See ya'll then.
