My Weekend in Pictures

The weekend began with us putting on our most Dorothy-worthy-shoes we could find (and drinking a pitcher of Sangria) to help us brave the incredible storm on Thursday night. We were SO excited to watch The Office together, but it had to wait until the next day because of all the severe weather alerts. There were windows rattling, 85 mph winds, tornado sirens blaring, dogs blowing away (not mine, thankfully)...

Of course, the next day was beautiful and sunny and we shopped all day! I got to show Sara some of my fave shops in KC - Good Ju Ju (great treasure hunting), Arizona Trading Company (kind of like Buffalo Exchange), and the best: Bon Bon Atelier!

By the time we headed home it was 3 or 4 and we hadn't eaten since breakfast! After a quick stop to PetSmart for little Remy's treats, we were seriously tempted to start scarfing them down (ok, to be fair, they are made of blueberries and some sort of sugary goodness, and they smell amazing!).

Fashion show for G!
(After living together for four years, we can FINALLY buy the same items and not have to worry about an embarrassing roomatey-match-match situation.)
Vests and shirts by Sarah Jessica Parker's Bitten @ Steve and Barry's

Saturday was our All-Day Shopping Marathon 2, on the Country Club Plaza.

Sunday after church, we all walked to the park for some much needed S-U-N!

Mill Creek Park - a great place to run, read, relax and a nice path from our house to the Plaza.

Sun-bathing. (I promise I'm wearing a shirt.)

Frolicking around in the grass = happy dog and husband.

BBQ pork sandwiches, broccoli, caprese salad, and white wine.
A delicious Sunday night, outdoor, spring-time meal.

Ok, I couldn't resist this one... after seeing Baby Mama on Sunday night, we came home to play the emotion/situation game (we put the camera on self-timer and at the last second, someone calls out an emotion/situation to convey). This was my favorite picture... I yelled out, "Remy and Zoe fighting," and this is how it turned out. Ha. (Also, please excuse my dirty, gross foot.)

Thanks so much for coming to see me, Sar. It was the best gift ever and I already miss you MUCHO! I can't wait to come see you in Portland, and here's to many more years of laughing, loving, shopping, sipping, sighing, hugging, tugging, reading, texting, relaxing-to-the-maxxing, driving, dancing, all-around-prancing, and just generally being friendsies for life.
LUUURVE YOU!
