This past week, Henry and I took an extended Field Trip Friday to our good friends’ home – the Lindeman Lair – in Coral Springs (where we used to live). We spent around 48 hours just relaxing, playing and hanging out; we never even left their house to go anywhere once we arrived. We spent tons of time outdoors swimming in their super sweet pool (Hen even tried the slide!), trying out our racquetball skills (nonexistent for both of us), and playing swords and light sabers (Hen and the other kids did this, not the adults). It was so much fun!

The Lindemans have three kids: nine and six year old boys and an 11-month-old girl, and Henry loved playing/chasing after the big boys and loving on baby Divya and her pink cars and toys. Our other friends, the Millers, came over each day with their kids (ages 14, 12, 8), and we had a little party Friday night getting together with the Donners and Budas, too. Hen having so many playmates allowed us adults to catch up after not seeing each other for 7 months. Gosh, it’s just so nice and fun to be around people who love you. In Henry’s words to describe the weekend, “I happy, mama.” Exactly.
