…because everyone loves a good alliteration, right?
That’s what my weekend looked like for the most part, and I loved every second of it.
Rewind to Friday, where we had a little birthday get together for none other than my good friend Leah.
A group of us met up at Mudspot in the East Village. I had heard a lot about Mud and was excited to go there for the first time.
I loved it so much that I went back on Sunday (where I wrote the beginning of this post with a big chai latte :)).
Everyone went to karaoke after dinner on Friday, but I called it an early night so I could get a good night’s sleep. My reason why?
Saturday was Jessi’s bridal shower!!!
I had been planning and organizing the shower for a couple of months, so I was so thrilled to finally share the special day with my best friend and bride-to-be.
The shower went off without a hitch. All of Jessi’s closest friends and family gathered at my friend’s showroom for a few hours of eating, mingling, opening gifts, and some fun activities.
For activities we did a fun trivia game about Parker and Jessi, as well as compiled a scrapbook for them with a ton of photos of friends, family, Parker and Jessi’s childhoods, etc. We did a similar scrapbook two years ago at Chrissy’s shower, and I knew Jessi would love going home with such a special gift!
It was such an honor getting to host the special day for my best friend. She and I have been through thick and thin, and I literally could not ask for a better friend in the world. Love you Jessi!
After the shower a group of us went out for another fun Saturday on the town. Considering how crazy I was prepping for the shower that morning, it was a much-needed afternoon/evening!
Sunday was pretty much my normal start-of-the-week routine, with a great church service followed by brunch. Monica, Courtney and I enjoyed a perfect Sunday meal at The Smith, followed by bopping around the city for a few hours.
And now, it’s back to the work week for me! Will leave you with this verse I’ve been loving lately…
