Allison got home from NYC yesterday, exhausted and happy to be home. I was proud that she made the trip on her own! (Whew!). Lindsey has been back at Iowa this week, getting back into the habit of studying after spending a week at home on her spring break.
Today Allison and I jumped in the car for a road trip to Iowa City. We have been traveling to college campuses during spring break for a few years now, so this trip felt right. Tomorrow we will watch Lindsey play club lacrosse against Iowa State. (Go Hawkeyes!).
We did the usual car ride routine, taking turns at the wheel and singing at the top of our lungs. It was nice to hear all about NYC. Our playlist was 100% Taylor Swift songs this trip. She is quite the storyteller, and we love her music. The conversation turned to what TSwift songs describe current and past relationships and situations. We had some good laughs and I pretended to be ill when Alli gushed about her special guy.
Tonight we enjoyed dinner at a local place and were joined by two of Lindsey's friends. We grabbed cupcakes from Molly's (yum!!) and are now watching all the March Madness games.
I realized today how old these girls are (halfway to 19 and 17!) and how fast the years fly by. I do treasure the time I spend with them...even when they argue. Gotta love 'em!
TSwift does tell a good story with her words. They are even easy to understand!! Sounds like you are having a great weekend!! See you soon!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a special time to spend with your girls! So glad to hear that Allison made it back safely and had a great time. I'm guess she didn't oversleep???
