Visit with my parents

The highlight of this weekend was my belated birthday celebration and visit with my parents. They came here yesterday afternoon and we went downtown where I got a new purse and phone. I now have a Guess bag from Macy's that's big enough to carry my books yet stylish. My new cell is an LG3 Chocolate in blue. I also got a stylish Dooney and Bourke case (not real, of course).

Last night my parents took me and six of my girlfriends out to dinner to celebrate my birthday. We went to Lucca's, a delicious Italian restaurant about 15 minutes away from school. My parents and I went there with Cady and her parents during orientation weekend. We got some yummy pizzas and appetizers to share. Dessert was the best! I, along with some of my friends got profiteroles with caramel ice cream with chocolate and caramel sauces. There was also chocolate and toffee bark, which was also yummy. The waitress put a candle on my dessert and everyone sang "Happy Birthday" to me.

This morning my parents and I went to breakfast at Helser's, a restaurant about 15-20 mins away from campus in a little developing artsy district (on NE Alberta). I had a black bean chili scramble which was very filling but delicious. My parents dropped me off on their way to the airport. Even though our visit was short, it was nice to see them. They really enjoyed getting to know my friends and I know my friends enjoyed meeting them. Luckily, I get to see them in a week when I come home for spring break

All of us at Lucca's: Megan, Kaelyn, MacKenzie, Dana, Cady, Traci, and me









Now that my parents are gone I've catching up on email and uploading pictures. I'm going to try to do catch up on homework. Cady has a concert tonight with her choir which I'm going to go to at 6. Should be fun. (:
