Just In Time For The Weekend

I am back from CT. I have to tell you that the almost 3 hour drive is worth it when you arrive here. And because I have a great secretary I got this beautiful dormered top floor room with a full view of the water. After the meetings some of us went out for lobster (my first of the season). It was one of those outdoor eat at a picnic table places. Besides lobster I shared an appetizer fruit, cheese, veggie plate and a bowl of steamers. Ice cream for dessert of course. The meetings today wrapped up by 12:30 so I was able to get home and pick up Keegan early. Jeff and Isabelle are on their way and we're taking the kids out for dinner tonight. I am kind of tired of eating out but we are eating in tomorrow because we are having friends over for a playdate.

There is something magical about the coast of Connecticut. We have our coast here, and I love it, but CT is so old school...grandeur.

I haven't had my first lobster yet. I can't wait though. Seven more school days. Maybe that's how I will celebrate. I will treat myself and head to the lobster pound I frequent in Hampton. :) Welcome back!
