Shopping in Crown Center

 YEARS ago,  (47 on July 31st to be exact) back in 1965, my Parents were married in Kansas City.  They met at a Christian College, fell in love and started their amazing journey in life together.  I am on their old stomping grounds all these years later with my own amazing husband as he attends a seminar for work.  I am very grateful for this opportunity to unwind and refresh myself to prepare for the school year and the next week alone as my Hubby travels.  It has been a wonderful week and I am sad to see it end.  I was able to catch up with a very dear old childhood friend who is like a brother to me.  I was able to read in peace and quiet and I was able to window shop along the pretty stores in Crown Center.  My husband took me to a wonderful restaurant called Milano's and then we had frozen yogurt for dessert.  We stayed in a motel in the center of CROWN CENTER in Kansas City and we enjoyed each others company with out any interuptions from precious little ones.  Don't get me wrong, our girls are our lives!!!!  But, once in a while, Mamma and Daddy need a break to remember how to have adult conversations that don't center around Barbie and playing dress-up.  Today we head to my folks after lunch to get our precious little ones.  I can't wait to hug them around the neck and hear all about the fun week they have had.  I know this week will be on my mind for some time.  It had been wonderful!
