Weekend in L.A.

 My dear friend Charlotte (who I have known my whole life) has lived in Switzerland for the past few years (which has made it very difficult to visit her.) So when I found out that she was in L.A. visiting her parents, I quickly made plans to drive down and see her (with the full support of my helpful hubby who would spend the weekend with the kids at home.)  I coordinated to be there the same weekend that Chelsea (another life long buddy) would be there visiting from Utah. We all stayed with our friend Nikki (Who lives by the beach) for a full-fledged girls night of fun.  I got to meet Char's adorable baby boy that I had only seen in pictures when I picked her up at her parents' home before we headed to Nikki's for the night.  We spent the evening out to dinner, dessert at a bakery, singing karaoke  and playing board games late into the night.  The next morning we walked to the farmer's market across the street from Nikki's house and had breakfast, and later enjoyed a bike ride to the beach, followed by a sushi lunch/dinner and good-byes.  It was such a quick trip (only about 24 hours), but so worth the hours of driving.  I love these ladies!
