Sometimes our best plans fall apart, opening us up to different adventures.
My momma was scheduled to come visit for a week. Matt was working out of town for a few days, then we were going to take a grown ups only roadtrip for his birthday to Baltimore and meet up with friends.
That plan went topsy turvy! I won't get in to it, just know, my parents, as of this week, are both feeling better.
One thing we know how to do is pivot! I was able to work from home while Matt was away, and then we had 24 hours away with the kids. Drove to Tarrytown where one more setback turned into a setup for a better situation
Y'all. The hotel had no water. They tried to claim it was a city problem. It was not. We ordered in food, we waited a few hours, we left 😂
The hotel we did stay at was closer to the breakfast spot where we met up with my friend Amanda! So fun to see her on this coast (we worked together at Evergreen, now we both are in New England).
After breakfast we hopped the train and within 45 minutes were in line at the smithsonian museum of natural history. Did you watch Night at the Museum? Just like that! Had a great time and it was too short. Had a blast, geeking out over every lil exhibit. End of the day, caught a yellow cab back to grand central (yes, we like to tourist), took the train back, then drove back home.
We hope momma will make it out sometime in the spring. Haven't seen her in person since Feb 2020! If she doesn't make it our way in springtime, I hope she uses the ticket for the Goree Family Reunion in Denver this July. If you are in that area in July, come meet my family at the cookout! We'll be at Utah Park. At this rate, plane tix to Denver are cheaper and easier to get than a taylor swift concert ticket... too soon? 😉
