Now both ladies fall off to sleep dreaming of the time when they are truly together again. Even though they’d been out until nearly 3am they house is alive by 9am. They decide on a quick breakfast of cereals and yogurt and head back to the slopes. The guys join the ladies on skis and Brent and Tom see what all the fuss was about Bette the skier. She was good, no matter her layoff this lady could ski. They we off the slopes by noon, grabbed lunch in the lodge and heading back to the house before 1pm. The guys had a date with an NFL game. The girls met in the hot tub and Janet had a great idea.

Janet: Let’s leave the guys here and drive up to Maine to the LL Bean outlet this afternoon. We aren’t going to get them to do anything else. They can either rummage through the fridge or order pizza for dinner.

Jen: I’m up for that we can find some great stuff for Angelica. I love shopping for little girl stuff.

Bette: Tina and I did some LLBean.com winter clothes shopping for Angelica before her Thanksgiving visit to New York. Being a southern California baby she had nothing for winter, now she’s cute as a button. Tina restrained my shopping though.

Janet: Well, we’ll have no such restraints.

The women all shower and dress and are ready for their afternoon jaunt.

Janet: Baby we’re taking Bette up to the LL Bean outlet.

Tom: OK babe, have fun.

Jen: I’m taking your wallet Brent.

Brent: No problem baby, see  you when you get back.

Janet: We can get them to agree to just about anything when they watch football.

Bette: Yea, that is a perk I don’t get with Tina, she’s pretty clear headed and able to multi task.

Jen: Yes, multitasking, a woman’s curse or blessing.

Janet pulls out and they are on their way. They’ve got the tunes cranked and are singing their heads off along the way. Bette loved their sense of adventure and felt right at home with them. They arrive at the outlet and Bette is simply amazed at the size of the place.

Bette: Wow this place is enormous.

Jen: Wait until we get inside you won’t know where to start finding things for Angelica.
