Mama Don't Get Dressed Up For Nothing
We're back. It's been a long weekend.
Friday (The Big Dinner) went well. We got to the hotel with time to relax and get ready, and things went smoothly, with the possible exception being that our room was directly across the hall from a hospitality suite in which one of the after parties was going to be held.
Husband took a picture of me, but I'm not posting it. Sorry, but while I looked good in the dress, for what ever reason it looks like I have no eye makeup on...and no one needs to see that.
I got about half a dozen compliments on my dress, which made me feel good. I didn't get drunk and make an ass out of myself. Husband won a "Stellar Performer" award, for the second year in a row. We managed to get to sleep despite the party going on across (and all the way down) the hall.
We went up to get the kids on Saturday; they'd spent the better part of the week with my parents, and while Husband visited his folks, I spent time with mine. We took the younglings to the beach and everyone had fun. Son lost his first tooth last night!
Today, after the younglings and I visited with Husband's parents, we made the trek home.
I'm tired...so very tired.

Cool. Sounds like a great weekend. Glad you got away plus didn't get stuck with the in-laws for too long.
