a girls weekend that started with a very glamorous party, Thursday night! you might imagine, Cairo is not the place for people to get stuck in lift, at the moment, so a lot of our friends are leaving Cairo and at the moment it seems we're invited to leaving parties and nothing else. so friends of ours decided to have a "we're not leaving Cairo - party"! well done, wonderful location, music, good people, great food - nothing else to wish for, and the perfect start into the weekend!
Friday started with pancakes for the girls and then the little girl went of on a playdate. time for the big girl and I...lots of talking, looking through her "baby-box" and creating a new space in her room. so the "project-corner" came to live and we finally put up her photo-wall again.
once the little girl was back home it was crafting and talking until dinner in front of the TV - oh, what a special treat!
the girls let me have a sleep in Saturday morning, so we had a late start with french toast and orange juice. happy girls created a "welcome back" board for Daddy and the day went with all the little things one starts doing around the house...
in the evening, Papa made it back just in time for "Laternenfest" - a german speaking tradition where kids walk along with their lanterns, singing songs...
very tired kids to bed once we were home...lucky me, going through the man's suitcases with oh, such a lot of treats from Austria :-)
I am joining Michelle for "gratitude week 2013", starting tomorrow! would be great if you'd join in as well, in whatever way you feel like!
