I had made plans to meet up with some girlfriends last Sunday and then
thought maybe Mom and I would take in an afternoon movie. I hadn’t planned that everything with the
house move wouldn’t be wrapped up.
Despite feeling overwhelmed, I am glad I didn’t cancel on my friend or
my Mom. We had a great day.
At 10am I met Danielle and Brenda at a coffee shop in Nampa so we
could carpool to Jump Creek. It is a BLM
site out in Owhyee County that has a quick and easy hike back to a beautiful
water fall.
My friend Jenny Ware met us at Jump Creek along with her son Trace
and his friend Nickel. The boys were
just too cute and did well putting up with us “old ladies” for the day. Trace is going through a survivalist phase so
he had a backpack filled with everything we needed to survive. Each boy had a pocket knife and was on the
lookout for snakes. When they spotted a
bull snake they screamed like little girls.
It was hilarious. Thankfully we
made it back to our cars safely and without incident. I told Trace that next time he needs to
remember to pack a bottle of wine. When
you travel with this group…wine is a must for survival.
After Jump Creek we said goodbye to Jenny and the wild boys and
headed to St. Chapelle for some wine tasting and a picnic.
We got there just as they opened which was a good time to come. It was a beautiful day with sunshine and soon
many other people joined us with the same idea.
There was a bridal/bachelorette party and several other groups with
young beautiful women. I am very
jealous. It could have been the wine talking
through.
After we had our tastings Brenda bought a bottle of Moscato to
share. I only had a small glass since I
was the driver. We sat out on the patio
in the sun and enjoyed our picnic. It
was a very enjoyable day.
I needed a nap when I got back to my parent’s house so I laid down
for about 30 minutes. When I woke up it
was time to go to a movie with Mom. I
took her to see Mother’s Day for an
early Mothers’ Day. It was
fantastic. We really enjoyed the movie
and I highly recommend it.
Grandpa came for dinner. We
also saw him for dinner on Saturday night.
So far there is good eats at my parent’s house.
