First Night Away From Home

While I was in the hospital my cousin was very worried about me, but could not come to see me because she was away at school. She had finals coming up and it just did not make sense. Everyday she talked to her mother and kept herself updated on my progress that way.

She made plans to spend time with me once she did come down to Texas for Christmas...just me and her! This past Thursday was the day! We had a "Girls Night In!" Yes, that means it was a sleepover and yes, that means it was my first night away from home and away from my mom! Those who know my mom know she was always worried, but she let me have my fun. I did text her while I was there so she would be at ease.

My cousin and I had soooo much fun!! In one of my older blogs I mentioned wanting to learn how to REALLY cook and I think this was a great start to that goal! We made pizza! No, we did not get a pre-made pizza and throw it in the oven! We also made a ton of cookies and pretty much ate all of them!!! I never use to like baking and my sorority sisters can attest to that! We talked and watched plenty of movies and I even have a new show that I need to catch up on...Homeland = AMAZING!

I wish there was more time, but I had to leave the next afternoon because it was my mother's birthday and we had a surprise plan! I love my cousin very much and I thank her for planning a much needed Girls Night In!
