Great Times with Great Friends!

The first few days of vacation have been absolutely fantastic, I once again have been reminded how fabulous my friends are. N and I had a 2 day co-birthday celebration on Friday night and Saturday, her birthday is today and mine is later this week, and I think we both are pretty lucky ladies.

Friday night, N, Stacy, Katie C, Erin B & I got all dressed up and headed to Trostel's Dish. There was an abundance of fabulous conversation and food including my favorite Chicken Mac-N-Cheese! After Trostel's we headed over to Blue Moon for some piano bar fun. It was a great night with some of my closest friends and ladies let me tell you we looked good!
Saturday was Birthday Booze Cruise '09, a tribute to one of N and my favorite episodes of The Office. N, Jared, Stacy, Katie C, LW, JW, B-Bob, Jill, Derrick & I rented a boat up on Big Creek, probably the best idea N has ever had. Although we got a bit of a late start, had a detour and a flat tire, it was worth it. It was the perfect day to be on a boat. We had tons of food, got tons of sun and had TONS of fun! We also found that a fun noodle makes quite the beer bong, but beware it does not hold an entire can. This might have to become a yearly tradition, and Nicole and I might have to invest in a boat :)

We finished the weekend downtown DSM at The Royal Mile, to say goodbye to another friend Stacie before she moves to Texas this week. While we were there I caught yet another "pack" in the wild, pretty sure the trend is spreading like wildfire!I can't say enough good things about my friends. They are a fabulous group of diverse personalities and we all mesh together so well. Thanks so much everyone for making this weekend so great, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY, N!!!!!
