gno santa barbara 2009.....

i knew my weekend was going to be AMAZING when i walked into caitlin's house on friday and there was this......

even more specifically this...

(for anyone wondering , yes, that is exactly what you think that is. it was a "no boys allowed" weekend after all )

we spent friday night chilling, eating, watching old junior high movies, and staying up WAY to late for a mom of three boys in her thirty's. but for my girls i had to sacrifice my sleep :)

saturday morn we woke up and a few of us went on a run through downtown sb. after our run we all went to breakfast with THE best french toast in the world..

keri, vern, me, shan, and anita..

gina and i on our way to breakfast..

breakfast....



after breakfast we did a little shopping on state street and then headed back to caitlin's for a corn hole tournament. anita and i were the champion's last year and we were excited to continue the reign. gina was talking a bunch of smack about how she was going to beat us. well, sad to say she did. anita and i were out in the first round. i blame it on the drinks gina made us. i think she put something in mine :)...


after some cornhole, drinks, afternoon sun, naps, and snacks we all got ready for our big night out of dinner and dancin.

gina and vern made us these shirts . they were awesome. they even had the "no boys allowed" sign on the back. luckily i have long hair. ha ha!

our pre-dance dinner was at this awesome restaurant/ hookah bar complete with belly dancer and all. it was amazing. i loved it.

this was us outside the club, it was SO cold so we all cuddled together..

we danced at the club until 1am (who am i ) and then ate snacks and stayed up talking until 2. it was so fun.

sunday we packed up, said our goodbyes ,and headed home to the oc to anxiously see all our families.

*what a great weekend*

thanks girls for an awesome weekend and for literally a life time of friendship. i am so blessed to have each and every one of you in my life. you all each hold a special place in my heart. can't wait until gno 2010. love you!!
