A new pair in fuchsia pink have been purchased...
Small travel sizes of Aveda Shampure and Phomollient and Avene products have also been sourced to fit inside my cosmetic bag. Packing light makes sense as the bag needs to have room for purchases and be easy to tote.
Mother and my Sister are my travel companions so I like to wear new pajama's.
We often stay up late and talk well into the night over a glass or two of bubbly.
a wee bit of lace
a V neck
the back is sheer and gauzy
Pepper is on the job
she started attacking the lace!
Every time I lay something new down on the bed for a photo shoot she turns into the Fashion Police!
Pepper's so lovely that I think I am dressing in her colours.
Mette hinted at the possibility and I think she's onto something.
I bought a new sweater...
and it reminds me of Pepper.
Style My Way
goes with all my black, white and greys...
was reduced as an end of season clearance
then further reduced by 50% off the last ticketed price.....
at under $20 how could I leave it?
Honestly I am turning into a bargain shopper
it could be those renovations.
I have a lot going on in this post and it seems to be rather discombobulated so apologies...
Our getaway was such a good tonic for Mother.
She spends a lot of time alone now
many of her friends have passed away and several of her women condo pals have sold and moved into care facilities.
Our suite at the resort was large and had all the amenities.
The rooms were vast and very quiet in the wing that we were settled in.
It didn't take us long to get into holiday mode
have a look.
living room
bedroom
kitchen
I didn't take pictures of the bathrooms or the dining area
as we had strewn all our stuff by the time I got my camera out
and I wanted it to look pristine!
Unfortunately it was not sunny...
but Sis and I swam in the outdoor pool just the same...
we had to get some exercise because we knew Mother would be taking us out for dinner.
Beef tenderloin, mashed potatoes, carrots, broccoli and wine demi~glace.
Melt in your mouth perfection...
Prosecco was our night cap in our room and we did sit around in our PJ's and robes!
(it pays to be prepared)
High spirits and excitement
laughter
reminiscing
chatting and sharing
pictures
fabulous family time.
Moments to save and hold tight to our hearts.
Mother had her very first ever spa visit!
we had three side~by~side manicures...
in the lush facilities
so relaxing...
"Hearts and Tarts"
looks a bit like a French Manicure
When Mother's onboard
"shopping happens"
and "happen" it did!
I'll post my "loot shoot" soon so stay tuned...
Pepper was happy to see me come home.
I got lots of pats and licks
she's now napping on my bed.
We've had snow flurries so the drive home was a winter wonderland...
I must get back to reality and rustle up some dinner for Mr. HB.
Cheerio,
Hostess
