A Wicked Girls Weekend

This past weekend, I flew into Atlanta for a girls weekend. My mom has some amazing relationships, and her friends have daughters who are my age who have been my friends for a lifetime. I met Amy the day she was born in the hospital. I met Heather in our Brownie girl scout group. So my Mom, Aunt Mel, Aunt Leslie, and Heather drove to Atlanta, and picked me up at the airport. We to go meet up with Amy- and the surprise was on me! My friend Jill from high school and Amy's friends from college Becca and Devon were there too. The girls surprised me with a lingerie shower... talk about getting the weekend off to a good start!
While most pictures aren't for the public eye, you can see the laughter on our faces. Heather's gift was... well, Heather like. She was the one who came up with the idea for the shower, and I owe them all a special thank you for spoiling me.
We started to build my bouquet for the rehearsal dinner. Less than 3 months and counting now. I can't wait!
We spent Saturday morning on the porch of a sports bar. I even dressed in red and black to support UGA. Blasphemy, I know... but I wanted to embrace the culture, and it was a good excuse to wear my new dress! So to point everyone out, in the back is Nanny, Aunt Mel, and Mom. In the front is Amy, Heather, and me.

We laughed so hard, my abs still ache today, and it's Thursday!

We danced. Have you noticed that we really didn't care what anyone else thought?

And by the end of Saturday night, well, the picture speaks for itself. We did some damage to the bar tab and ourselves... but it was SO worth it! On Sunday, we got off to a late start, and then spent the day shopping in Atlanta. We had tickets to go see Wicked on Sunday night, and I'll post a picture or two as soon as I get them. This was my third time seeing the Broadway musical, and this was my favorite cast yet. More details to follow soon!

Looks like an awesome weekend in the ATL. Do you have the soundtrack for Wicked? I will admit I can sometimes be found listening to it on the way to work...
