Home sweet home

I cannot even begin to tell you how busy I have been! I thought I was really on top of things as I went into my last week at work and at Stonehill but I couldn't have been more wrong. But before I jump into that let me recap...I had a week off to pack and get ready to go and I spent most of that week in Rhode Island getting ready to go, but then I came back to school to work for one more week before heading home. That week flew by so fast and before I knew it my car was packed with the last remenants of my room and I was on the road headed to Rhode Island for one last weekend. I had some last minute packing and unpacking and repacking to do but my friend Kacie and I had a pretty busy weekend celebrating her 20th birthday!


As soon as I got to their house friday night I got all dressed up to go out to Foxwoods. We went to see a Cirque de Soleil show called Cirque Dreams Pandemonia. The show was absolutely amazing, and of course it is always fun to get to dress up. Here are some pictures of us before the show and after with some of the actors.
















After the show Kacie wanted to go to Hard Rock Cafe for dinner, and since we were celebrating he birthday we headed over there. While the food was good my favorite part is when the waitresses embarras the birthday girl...but you do get a free dessert so it was obviously worth it.




Kacie with her birthday brownie fudge sunday...SOOO good! :-)


Just because we celebrated Kacie's birthday Friday night doesnt mean we were all done celebrating. Saturday night we had plans to head into providence to eat at Fire & Ice and then head down to water fire. I love Fire & Ice cause you get to pick whatever you want from a huge buffet and then there are cooks who cook everything together. It's quite Yummy!

After dinner we walk along the water to see the waterfires.


As if we had not had a bussy weekend already I finished up packing Sunday morning so I could spend the afternoon in Newport with Kacie and our friend Christy. We all wanted to get chowder from our favorite resturant the Black Pearl right on the Harbor before I headed home and they went back to school. We had such a nice afternoon it was the perfect way to end my first New England summer.








Monday Morning we woke up wicked early so I could catch my 8:30 flight out of Boston. Since then I've been home just relaxing and running lots of errands to finish getting ready to go...10 days!


Enjoy your last days of summer!
