Monday: Lunch with my favorite K-team girls!
On Monday Jackie, Megan, Megan's daughter Finley, Liz, and I met up at Cheeburger Cheeburger. I am slightly addicted to that place now. It was so fun to catch up with these girls and although I'm SUPER excited about teaching 3rd grade next year I will definitely miss getting to spend so much time with them. Megan had to leave early to pick up Avery from VBS but here's a picture of the remaining three of us.
Monday night was Girls Night at my house! I made one of my favorite dishes- fish and shrimp tacos! Here are all the girls after a riveting game of Cranium.
Tuesday: Lunch with my old work buddies from Elliott Electric.
Oh how I miss these girls! Megan, Adriane, and I because great friends when we all three worked at Elliott. At first we weren't super close, but I wore them down and we've been close ever since. We try to get together for lunch or dinner every couple of months and they make me laugh so much. I love spending time with them! Bonus: Megan is also pregnant and 2 months ahead of me. In fact, it was at her wedding when I first got the "I think I might really be pregnant" feeling. The next day I had a positive pregnancy test! Sadly, we forgot to get a picture of the three of us! :( Next time...
Wednesday: Sara Baker comes in town!
Somehow we got no pictures of this either. BUT - we did watch some Harry Potter and hang out. I love me some Sara Baker - aka: the other Sara, aka: my imaginary friend, aka: my other personality. :)
Thursday: Preparing for Galveston!
Thursday Sara Baker and I spent the day getting ready for Galveston and finally Leigh Anne and Morgan arrived so we could head downtown to go to Costco with Krystin, Kristyn, and Katie Mayes!
After an eventful trip to Costco we finally headed to the beach house. We hung out and played the Game of Things and went to bed sometime around 3am <--- waaaaaaay past my bedtime as a pregnant lady. Little did I know that this would be a trend for the next 3 days.Friday: Spa Day!
On Friday morning we got up and headed to the Spa at the Hotel Galvez where we relaxed, got pedicures, massages, and facials. It was so nice to relax with friends and get pampered. No pictures from the spa though because nobody wanted to be seen without makeup lol.
Friday night girls started trickling in from Dallas, Nacogdoches, and Houston and we headed to the Sand Bar, a little restaurant and bar in the neighborhood where the beach house was. I guess I'm not used to the bar scene (especially sober) because it's quite different when you're pregnant. We had a good time none the less and headed back to the house to hang out on the porch until 3am again.
Saturday: Beach Day!
On Saturday a few of us girls got up early and went to get groceries so I could make breakfast tacos for everyone. My friends have been calling me "Mommy Sarah" long before I got pregnant because I'm always the one cooking for everyone. I guess it's my nurturing nature? Breakfast tacos were a hit! After eating we headed to the beach to hang out in the sand. Kristen Keal and I were the only ones who took advantage of the boogie boards and we both caught a wave!
Here are some more pictures from hanging out on the beach:
Why am I wearing lipstick on the beach you might ask? Well I used my favorite Mac lipstain the night before and frankly after scrubbing my lips for 10 minutes I gave up and just applied more so I wouldn't look diseased. Saturday night we went out in the Strand and had a blast dancing the night away with each other. What a fun group of girls! I am thinking this beach trip thing needs to become a yearly event. So thankful for great friends and good times!
