Mommy-Daughter Day:)





Here are the Mommies of Mommy/Daughter Day.
Donna and Melissa




And here are the daughters.

Sydney and Hayley Grace





Today was so fun. In fact, it was close to perfect. It was "Mommy-Daughter Day". Hayley Grace (my 6 yr old daughter) and me, plus my very sweet friend Donna and her daughter Sydney, all went on a picnic after church. Hayley Grace has been looking forward to this day for quite a while now. We originally scheduled it for 2 weeks ago. It didn't happen. So we rescheduled. Well, today, it happened and it was worth the wait. The 4 of us went to Latta Plantation Park in Huntersville, NC on Mountain Island Lake. We had such a great time.


Our first stop: Kentucky Fried Chicken. Oh yes, I did not count WW Points, in fact, I probably had a week's worth today. 2 pc dark meat with cole slaw and mashed potatoes and a biscuit! Yum Yum!






If KFC wasn't enough, we passed a "Cook Out" and had to stop by. This is the BEST greasy food joint evah!

Here's the hiking sign that helped to show us the way....

Uh-oh! Someone lost her bottoms!








Two great friends having such a great time.





I wish I had more time tonight, but I don't. I'll post more tomorrow. Mommy/Daughter Day was one of my favorite days this year.
Blessings,

Melissa

Mommy/Daughter day looks like so much fun! Not having a daughter, I have mommy/son days in my memory, and hope to make more even though he is now 16! Cherish these days my friend - they grow up so fast!

Hope to have a Mommy/Daughter day with my Mom today - she's 82 years old. The plan is to spend a couple of hours with her today.

Thanks for sharing your pictures. Looking forward to seeing more!
Love & hugs,
Joy

Melissa,

I have two words "making memories". You look to have made some great ones. I love my mommy son time with each of the boys.

I decided last week that I wanted to have some girlfriend time. So I sent out an email to alot of ladies. The email said "I need some girlfriend time. If you need some too, meet me at the 2:35 showing of Mamma Mia on Saturday. It was awesome I got so many who said they were needing it to. We have about 8 show up and it was an awesome movie. Highly recommend it to every women and her sisiters.
BYW I have posted a new recipe on my Simply Elelgant site. Check it out.

Melissa,
I have had several Mommy-daughter Days this summer and they have been by far some of my favorites. We have gone to Dish It Out, picnics, Carowinds and shopping. I only wish summer didn't come to an end!
