Far Away Friend comes to visit!

Luckily my friend Paula is a whiz at getting deals and utilizing frequent flyer miles!  So she came down for a weekend to visit from Boston before the baby.  I put her right to work because what are friends for but to help pick out lighting fixtures??? Plus, I knew Paula's great decorating sense, so we headed out and visited WAY too many lighting stores on a quest for new sconces we were having installed in our living room.  It was great to see and catch up with Paula while she was here.  I guess the good side of being a grown up is to be able to still see those friends in far away places.
