The Life and Times of the Watters Family

time with a good friend, shoe shopping and yummy frozen yogurt…

Does it get any better than that?

On a whim, I called my good friend Cambria this afternoon to see if by some miracle we could spontaneously coordinate our schedules to get out for a little kid-free time this afternoon. Dates like that are a rarity these days for both of us. It was fun to spend time together today and be able to actually finish a sentence without one of us needing to answer a question or attend to a child.

We went to Fairhaven and checked out my friend Nia’s new shop. It’s a really cute place with lots of fun, one of kind items. I love the new blues and browns that are currently popular in decorating and I am now inspired to paint our office/craft room. From there we moved on to one of my most favorite activities– shoe shopping! I’ve been on a mission to find a cute, comfortable pair of shoes that are versatile enough to wear with jeans, capris, shorts or whatever. I found this pair at Hilton’s. I don’t know if the picture really does them justice. They are really cute on and super comfortable.

We shopped around downtown for a little while in some of the little boutiques– it made me feel old, but we had fun. I had never been to The Red Berry so we stopped in there for some delicious frozen yogurt. If you live in Bellingham you have to go check it out, it’s on Holly St. near Bob’s Burger and Brew.

We had a really full morning (Walk for Life, Soccer, and Baseball) so the pace of this afternoon was just right after all that! It was a nice treat to get out and spend some time with a good friend, pick up some new shoes, have a yummy treat and–it’s not even Mother’s Day yet!
