One of my girlfriends came down to spend the weekend with us - she got here in time to meet me at the office so we could walk to lunch and then we kicked off the weekend with dinner and drinks out too.
Stella can never be left out of anything.
Once we got up and rolling on Saturday we headed out for a leisurely Mexican lunch along with some shopping and errands before taking her by to see the new house and check this week's progress.
We all met up Saturday night to celebrate my Mom's birthday - we always love celebrating our favorite lady.
We enjoyed a delicious Italian meal at one of our favorite spots - everything was delicious and it's always fun to all be together.
For the birthday dessert she requested ice cream sundaes - easy enough!
Mmm.. before my girlfriend hit the road yesterday we splurged on some donuts. Not pictured: the time at the gym afterwards making up for it.
And we finished off the weekend like everyone else - watching the Super Bowl. We started things off with wings (of course!), a Mexican dip and cheese plate then around halftime had a chili bar to enjoy before everyone went home - we finished watching the game from bed.
Have a good week! xx
