Girl's Weekend!

I got a head start to the weekend by taking Friday off! My mom drove down from Caldwell on Thursday and we started off the weekend festivities by picking up my sister from the airport. She flew in from Kansas City and we were waiting for her arrival with a big hand-made sign outlined with big beautiful hearts. She didn't seem that embarassed, so I don't know if we did our job:) HA!

Since this was like our mini-vacation (even though I was 20 minutes from home), we thought it would be fun to get a hotel room down in bricktown for Thursday night. We stayed at the Sheraton in Bricktown, and after we got checked in, we headed to "Toby Keith's I love this Bar and Grill" for a yummy dinner.

The food was great, but when we got back to the hotel we had a sweet tooth that had yet been fulfilled. We walked ourselves up to the hotel restaurant and said,"Three lava cakes with Tahitian vanilla ice cream to go please!"

We took our dessert and went back to the room so Mom and I could catch the season finale of "The Housewives of Atlanta". Yes, we LOVE that show.

On Friday, we woke up and hit Starbucks early so we could get to the "Affair of the Heart" craft show. For those of you that have never heard of this...it is the setting for a PERFECT girl's weekend. This is a 3-day craft show with 7 HUGE buildings full of crafts, gifts, clothing and food. Seriously...I can't even explain it. You have to go and experience it for yourself.   We had to stand in line for 20 minutes to get into the first building, but it was worth it!

We only got through 4 buildings on Friday before we were pooped out...PLUS we had to go pick up my Keeley-bear from daycare. Keeley was excited to see her "Aunt Cole" and Grandma Mickey!! After we went home and rested for about 4 -6 minutes, we were off again! :)

We let Grandpa join in on our girl's weekend fun and took him to dinner at Riverwind Casino for "all-you-can-eat" crab legs. YUMMMMY! By Friday evening, we were ready to hit the sack by 9PM! We were worn out.

On Saturday, we were ON THE GO again...ALL DAY LONG! Of course we started the day off at Starbucks and then we shopped from 9AM to 9PM at night! Poor Frankie was at home sick while I was out having all this fun. We took Keeley with us all day and I have to say...that little girl was SOOO good for being dragged from store to store. We were on a mission to find gourmet coffee for my sister and she also wanted to find a cute outfit or two. My sister Nicole, VERY RARELY buys herself clothes, but when she does shop...she doesn't just buy one shirt or one pair of pants. She has to buy an ENTIRE outfit or she won't buy anything at all. I had fun playing her "stylist" for the day and trying to find a cute outfit.

We apparently wore Keeley out and she fell asleep with this little plastic frog stuck to her mouth!  We couldn't resist taking a picture!

Today was our final day to such a FUN girl's weekend. I am sure you can guess how we started the day...YES, Starbucks. We then went to Target and Barnes&Noble and then had to get ready to take Sister back to the airport.

I can't wait to plan our next Girl's Weekend!! As Keeley would say..."We had sooo much PUN (fun)!"
