Like Mother, like Daughter

Just got back from a wonderful 3 day visit to Cape Cod.


The nicest thing about visiting the Cape is that we have a great place to stay
(and can you say FREE)
now that Lyndsay lives there with her wonderful hubby, Dan.






As your children age, you keep spotting things that make you realize how much alike our adult children are to us.
Here are 20 similarities I noticed this weekend...

1. We both like to talk, but not too much.
We are comfortable with silence, too.


2. We are both computer nerds, and don't go
ANYWHERE for three days without our laptops (or smartphone in Lyndsay's case)

3. We love to shop for our houses (can you say Home Goods!)
but HATE shopping for clothes.

4. We both like to cook (and eat!)
5. We like the same chic flick movies, and hate scary movies

6. We both love our pets...except one of us has pets that meow, and the other one of us has a pet that chases the pets that make that kind of noise.

7. We both like Magic Erasers, a lot.

8. We love reading blogs.
9. We love reading books and talking about good books to read.
10. We like going for walks together.

11. We love to take photographs.
12. We love to drink both coffee and tea.
(just not at the same time!)

13. We both think that an ideal evening is just to stay home, make dinner
together with your love,
and then cuddle on the couch watching a movie or TV.

14. We both are addicted to HGTV.


15. We decorate our houses by copying each other's styles.
16. We both are constantly sending each other links of our favorite
online decorating/cooking/home+family sites.





17. Our dream homes are very similar and involve living with a view of the ocean.

18. We both can be worry warts, and stress out over silly things sometimes.

19.We love each other very much, and would do anything for the other person.

20.
We love impromptu photo sessions!
(especially at the ocean)
