And the parties begin!!

I am happy to say we all made it home safe and sound from my bachelorette party in Vegas, and surprisingly it was pretty calm.. I think we all wanted to be outside soaking up the 90 degree weather by the pool, books and girlie drinks in hand versus being suck in our room hung over! Even though it was pretty 'calm' we still managed to rack up a list of great memories and quotes  (even some we can't share! Hey you know the saying "what happens in Vegas.....)

*Mari-Beth's target/shoe situation.

1st time at the store: Forgot to buy them

2nd time at store: Bought them, but forgot them at the counter

3rd time at the store: Success! Walked out with shoes in hand!

*Ashley's mom telling her "Now Ash, don't try to keep up with Alyssa drinking! I don't want you to end up on a roof or with a tiger!"

* Ashley trying to take a picture of us on the plane, managing to drop her phone onto the head of a lady sleeping! And then the phone bounced off her head and hit another guy

* On the plane the flight attendant kept saying Charlie!

*Drinking with Ash on the plane. Me getting sick and Ashley about to pee her pants

*Getting picked up by a limo with Champagne and a rose! 

* Alyssa: "Mari-Beth you want to split a drink?"

MB: "Um no! You need to nut up, we are in Vegas!"

* MB: "$25 for a sucker!!! And it doesn't even spin?!"

*The huge plate of pickles we got at 3am

*No going to a club because we weren't in heels

*Waking up when my Mom & Aunt were going to bed!! We totally got showed up by the Mom's this trip

*Having an interesting afternoon at the pool

*Kristin O'Neill showing her love all the way from home! Having pina colada's, nachos and chicken tenders delivered to us by the pool (Thank you again Kristin, that was so thoughtful!)

*Jessica being the sweetheart she is, gave me a pair of Ray Ban sunglasses for our honeymoon

*Taking the biggest shot of my life for a scavenger hunt

*MB and Jessica each losing $15 on one spin!

* MB and I playing Craps for hours

*Jessica, MB and I watching this young girl with this OLD guy (vegas is the best for people watching). We ended up following them into the elevator because they were too amusing not to watch. We didn't pay attention that they got into the VIP elevator...needles to say we weren't suppose to be in there and just acted like we were lost! 

*Simply enjoying being around family and friends

This was such a memorable trip, and I am so blessed to have the best friends and family. Of the whole weekend, I think this is my favorite picture! Danielle, Taylor and I:) I am pretty sure we have this exact same picture from when we were little

Thank you to everyone who made the trip to Vegas. It was such a great weekend, and one I am sure we will never forget! This was the pre-funk to the wedding...you girls better be ready to party down come July 27th!

Wine Tour

I don't think there is much in this life that beats friends! I am blessed to have a wonderful group of friends who love to have a great time, who I trust, and who will have my back no matter what...So thank you girlies for always being there for me, and providing me with constant laughs.  This last weekend was defiantly dedicated to girl time and I loved every minute of it! Months and months ago we purchased a deal for a wine tour on a party bus...even though the wineries weren't the best, we all had a great time and are racking our brains to plan our next adventure!

This day was filled with so many great memories...

-Endless giggles

-King Charles the driver

-Anna and her hilarious quotes (coming soon!)

-Right when we were leaving, we had King Charles stop the bus so we could make a beer run

-Me breaking two wine glasses

-Coming to the realization we all would never make a living on a stripper pole! But it was entertaining to watch us all try

-Almost getting caught taking a wine glass (thanks Meg for saving us)

-Beth bringing a gigantic cooler

-Packing food like we were leaving for a week instead of 5 hours

-Story telling

-Taking in gorgeous views

-Making memories

Some of the great quotes from the trip...notice how many time Anna's name appears!...

-Anna: "Guys, we have to go back to my house! I forgot my debit card!!!"

(Mind you she said this as we were still in her drive way! Guess she just wanted us to pull closer to the door!?)

-Anna: "Is anyone else getting clammy?"

-Anna: "Probably shouldn't be carrying around a blank check in my bra!"

-Anna: "Guys I only have one big toe painted!"

-Anna: "I gotta take a pic of he license plate and bus to Jer. He is nervous!"

-Alyssa: "I don't like standing next to skinny people in picture" (to Meg)

-Ashley: "umm why didn't you say that to me?

-Wine Man: "We have a great view of Mt. Hood here at the winery!"

Katie: "Oh really where!?"

(Literally Mt. Hood was a tiny speck!"
