Scrapbooking Bus Tour & Tequila Shots

When is the last time you went on an 'great adventures' bus tour? Last Saturday, mom treated me to a crazy all-day scrapbooking adventure bus tour. We were up & out at 6:30 am, on the bus by 7:30 and on the road through 4 different states, before arriving home after 7pm. At each stop, the scrapbooking place had a 'make & take' for a Halloween album & drawings & giveaways & shopping discounts. It was all pretty overwhelming, to be honest (including the Shepherd's Pie served for lunch). On the whole, the bus tour was very awesome and a perfect thing to do with my mom. Mom gave it a B+, I gave it an A- (for a more detailed evaluation of the weekend, request the extended collection of graphs & 10pt-sub-divided rating scales from my dad).We spent the next day playing with our goodies & assembling Halloween albums.
But even better, Sunday night, we celebrated my mom's birthday at Don Jose Tequilas. Great paella, homemade margaritas, super sweet flan, & the classic birthday tequila shot! At one point she was given a giant sombrero, as well (yes, the picture is most appropriately fuzzy). Overall a perfect visit. Happy birthday mom, thanks for flying up!
