Sterotypical Late Twenties Weekend

Sorry for the silence on the blog yesterday. I took the day off to recover from my stereotypical late twenties weekend. I actually hadn't thought of how stereotypical my weekend was until a friend pointed it out on Sunday.

My weekend festivities actually started on Thursday night when my best friend came to stay with me for a few nights before her wedding. She wanted to be in town, close to craft stores and stay with me so she didn't stay with her soon-to-be hubby the night before the big day.

The past few days were packed full of nail appointments, hair appointments, makeup appointments, crafting, wine drinking and more. Not to mention, we even watched Pitch Perfect while crafting on Friday night in our sweats. It was incredibly stereotypical... and I loved every minute of it. 

Saturday was the big day and I was so excited to stand next to my best friend on her big day.

To wrap up my weekend of things you do in your late twenties, I went to another friend's baby shower on Sunday evening. It was decorated so well and ended up being much more fun than most baby showers. It was very classy and had great food, oh, and an open bar. 

After the baby shower, I met up with my bestie and her new husband at the movies to see The Other Woman. I couldn't have asked for a better weekend with some of my favorite people.

Happy Veterans Day

This past Veterans Day weekend, we spent a couple of days in Gettysburg, PA. We went up there for a wedding and then spent the next day playing tourist. I had so much fun visiting this city and I learned so much from our personal tour guide! He was great and really helped us appreciate the history that the city holds. Here are some pictures from the trip!

On our way to the wedding!

Weekend Recap

Here are some pictures from my iPhone that I took over the weekend. 

Hope you have a great week!

Photo booth at the wedding. This is just a small sampling of the amount of pictures we took in there. So much fun!

New hair! I am so happy my hair is finally darker.

Twinsies! Mom and I got matching pedicures over the weekend.

 

Balloon races. This is my favorite event in Reno. I have over 100 pictures on my real camera from Friday morning. Hopefully I will have a chance to go through all the photos soon so I can post some of my favorites.

My little, Lisa. She is one of my favorite people and I am so so glad we got to catch up over the weekend.

  

What is a trip home without some In-N-Out?

Lake Tahoe. Amazing.

Wedding Weekend

Dress: Lilly Pulitzer Similar Style  Shoes: Marc Fisher  Bracelet: Stella and Dot

This past weekend we flew up to Michigan to see some of our good friends get married. It was a beautiful wedding in a gorgeous location. I have been anticipating this wedding for months and was so happy to be a part of their special day. 

I found this Lilly dress a few months ago and fell in love. I immediately ordered it so I would have it in time. It is the perfect summer wedding dress (and it's Michigan colors!). 

Hope you had a great weekend!
