Girls weekend Part 1

Friday morning I flew out to Jersey to spend the weekend with two of my greatest friends, Griffin and Jurist. All went well with my flight, no delays and landed in Newark to beautiful sunshine and 70 degree weather.

I was quickly reminded that I was on the east coast by the hustle and bustle of the people in the airport. I was picked up promptly by the ladies and off we went to my old stopping ground. Our first stop was to my previous employer, to check out all the remodeling and to see all the wonderful people I use to work with. I got the grand tour and it really felt like I had never left. I was even treated to lunch by my old boss and had lunch with a couple of my other favorites from work.

Then off to the mall we went….we had just enough time to hit some of our favorite stores before our makeovers at bare escentuals. For the next two hours we played with makeup!! We had so much fun and I must say we looked and felt great afterwards!

We then went to pick up Jurist’s little girl, Abs, from school. I was so excited to see her! We met up with another former coworker of mine, SH, at one of my favorite restaurants, Maggianos! Dinner was delicious and I enjoyed catching up on the latest news.

The end of our evening on Friday night was one of my favorite parts of the weekend. We headed back to Jurist’s house and her hubby, Ant, had started their fire pit and picked us up ingredients for Smores! I felt like we were teenagers sitting around the fire in comfy clothes….we laughed SO MUCH and I am sure their neighbors heard us. Oh what fun we had.
