I surprised the heck Outta one of my dearest friends when I popped up at her house!!! Her partner and two sons (the taller one is my godson) were in on my surprise, and it went off perfectly!!!!

We Walked her dog, Petey, around her lovely neighborhood and dined in some really terrific restaurants. Who knew Fairfield, CT is so dang beautiful? I mean, what an absolutely awesome place to raise a family. Honestly, she has created one of the coziest homes I've ever had the pleasure to visit. Bravo, Madeline, bravo!!!

I visited with two other incredible women while in NYC, but when I was with them, we were too busy yackin' and eating and drinking and laughing to capture photos like I did with Madeline. Next time! Next time!!!
