Kristin's Bridal Shower

Two weekends ago I had the super rad honor of flying out to California for my friend's bridal shower. 

The maid of honor and her mom decorated the back yard and patio super cute 

and served us various forms of mini poppyseed muffins, cinnamon rolls, champagne cocktails, 

quiches, cheesy potatos, cheesecake, and peanut butter balls (and probably more that I am forgetting). 

I've known the MOH since 5th grade and let me tell you, her momma knows how to host a party. 

"Movie Night" was never just simple popcorn, it was always a 5 course meal (but I'm not complaining).

 We played all the basic bridal shower games, ate lots of food and found a secret midget door.

Potter?! Are in you in there??

I won a super cute scarf during the "who knows the couple the best" game... but I think living with the couple out in Arizona may have given me an unfair advantage.

Me and Ashley also almost won the toilet paper wedding dress game (everyone agreed ours was the best) but the bride had to get all sappy and pick her mom's team. I guess I can live with that ;)

After the Bridal shower we cleaned up and went out for a night on the town. Margaritas at the fabulous Mission Inn and then wandering the dive bars that are Downtown Riverside.

I adore hanging out with these ladies and when we go on our cruise for the bachelorette party in October... its gonna be AWESOME.

Running Plan - Week #2

My roommate and best friend's wedding is exactly 8 months from today.

Last year on her birthday

I was told that as a bridesmaid, my only duty was to "stand there and look pretty".
I told her that I was really good at that ;)

At our friend's wedding 

I also told her that I would be her workout buddy in the upcoming months, since I'm her only local bridesmaid (everyone else is back in SoCal, where we're from).

Last week, we signed up for a bootcamp together. I don't feel ready for a bootcamp yet, but it was a great deal (hellooooooo, Groupon!) and its super close to our house (15 minute walk or 3 minute drive)... so how could I resist?  It's always way better to make a fool outta yourself when you have a friend to laugh along side you anyways.

Since the bootcamp doesn't start for a few more weeks, I will continue with my running plan for now.
Enjoy :)
