Bachelorette Shenanigans!

I'm linking up again for Weekend Shenanigans!
Sami's Shenanigans

This weekend was one of my college roommates' Bachelorette Weekend!

I was very low-key Friday night since I had a BIG Saturday planned. Saturday morning I woke up early, packed, and headed to Fort Worth! I got to FTW about 11:30 so I stopped at one of my favorite restaurants, Kincaid's Hamburgers, for lunch. Their hamburgers are perfect and they have crinkle fries! I also love(d) that they have Cherry Coke (however, I haven't had Coke since FEBRUARY, so I stuck to Sprite - nonetheless, I love that they have the option).

After a delish lunch, I went to Amanda's apartment to change and help with any last minute finishing touches she needed before the rest of the guests arrived. Her apartment was precious (as to be expected from this particular Amanda) and her decorations for the Bridal Shower were perfect!
Gorgeous (and yummy) cake
So cute

After the Shower, I went downtown to check in to my hotel room and relax a little before getting all glammed up for the Bachelorette Party! Then, I went downstairs to the Bachelorette Party room and helped decorate there before everyone arrived. When the party started, we played some fun games, had delicious snacks, and drank pink champagne!

After that, we caught one of the last trolleys to Mi Cocina for dinner! Then we went to one of my (and the bride-to-be's) favorite places: Pete's Dueling Piano Bar! We danced, sang loudly, and had an absolute blast! Stacey brought one of her friends from TN/ bridesmaid, Kaitlyn, who quickly became all of our new friend. She created the motto for the night when boys started to approach us: Buy us a drink or leave! We were kind of kidding, but kind of not - what good is being a girl in a bar if you don't get a free drink or two?

All of us before we hit the town!

We love Pete's.
At the end of the night (or beginning of the morning?), we walked back to our hotel (that's one of the greatest things about downtown Fort Worth - you can walk EVERYWHERE) and hung out for a few more minutes before I went back up to my room and got in bed. Quints was on on Disney Channel and Maggie and I relived our 90's childhood-ness for the last 20 minutes or so of the movie.

Sunday morning, Maggie and I hit up the Jazz Cafe for breakfast. It's a little mom and pop hole-in-the wall place, but my breakfast was SOOOO yummy.

After that, I drove back to Tyler, exhausted and VERY ready for my move to the Fort next month!

How was your weekend?

Long Weekend Shenanigans!

It was a long weekend and it was fantabulous (as all long weekend should be).

I convinced my mom to take a half day Friday. We went over to the furniture store and finished picking out my furniture AND ORDERED IT. This whole moving in July thing is getting more and more REAL. I'm SO excited. I can't wait to have the cutest apartment ever. OH! And I'm getting a sweet Tempurpedic bed and I could not be any more excited. It's ok to be jealous about how awesome I'll be sleeping come late July. I'm going to have to start taking naps on my couch so I don't sleep though my classes, I think... Bahaha.

Saturday, my mom and I did a little random shopping around town before my roomie's engagement/dinner party! One of my awesome college roomies has a ton of family around these parts and they threw her a dinner party so they could meet her fiance. Naturally, the three green house roomies were reunited and it was a good time. Also, Stacey's fiance, Adam, is awesome.

When I got home, I had two invites waiting the mail to Stacey's bridal and bachelorette parties in June. Should be definite good times. #PUMPED

On Sunday, I went to my seester's company Revue. She danced SO beautifully. Her solos were awesome. I'm so proud of the dancer she's become. She's so cool and graceful and I want to be her when I grow up. Even though she's younger. Whatever, you get it.

After realizing I'd been at said Revue for two hours already and there were still about 10 numbers left and I'd seen seester's solos and my favorite dances, I ran backstage and gave her flowers and told her how awesome she is before heading home to get ready for a Memorial Day party! After a quick change and some luvins for Nappy, I went out to my friend Bonnie's for some yummy food and fun friends in the sun (what little there was left)!

On Monday, my mom and I went shopping (again) for some much needed accoutrements (whoa, I spelled it right on the first try) before seeing the Hangover III. I've decided that the people that wrote the Hangover movies are seriously sick, but even more than that, seriously hilarious. The Hangover III is a must see and stay after the credits start because there's another mini-ending that makes the movie THAT much funnier.

What did you do this long holiday weekend?
