Weekend Reads, No. 80

Happy Sunday!

Yesterday, I flew to Los Angeles for our niece’s baptism today. I’m her godmother too, which is such an honor! Today is a very special day and such a wonderful reminder of how fortunate Edwin and I are have amazing families. On my way to Los Angeles yesterday, I connected in Dallas and left the airport for the day to go to one of my best friend’s baby showers. Two of my other college girlfriends and I had previously told the mama-to-be that we couldn’t make it so it was a big surprise! We pulled it off and it was so fun and special to celebrate with our girlfriend, her husband, and their baby girl on the way. It was a lot a travel but I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to celebrate so many people in my life that I truly love! It’s a gift!

I hope everyone else is having a family and friend filled weekend!
