I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. Mine was very productive doing "house things" with a little bit of relaxing and some fun with friends.
On Friday, K and I had our final walk-through/inspection of the new home which went well despite getting soaked by torrential thunderstorms. After we got that completed it was time for some happy hour and dinner at Graffiti Junktion.
Saturday was spent packing up boxes and organizing things at home before heading out for a quick dinner at Carrabba's with the bestie and her mom. After dinner we went to a friend's 80's themed birthday, although some people didn't dress up (ahem Kate and myself).
On Sunday I took the bestie and her mom out and about to do some shopping and errands. We literally spent 6 hours shopping between the mall, Target, Michael's and a few more stops. I'm happy to report I didn't buy one thing despite being tempted by all the cute Betsy Johnson things at Michael's.
We stopped at a Peruvian restaurant and shared some amazing ceviche and seafood for lunch.
It was a nice weekend and I'm already counting down to the long weekend ahead.

Wow great job on no spending!! I wish I didn't spend this weekend. Can you send me some of your self restraint?? I really need it. haha
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun weekend! So many cute things - way to not give into the temptation!
ReplyDeleteI admire your restraint. I may have to stop in and check that Betsy stuff out at Michael's! Looks like a great, fun and yummy weekend with great friends!
ReplyDeleteMemorial Day Weekend seriously can't get here quick enough! That's so exciting that y'all had your final walkthrough, despite the crazy weather! An 80's birthday party sounds like so much fun, and I love that so many people dressed up for it! Way to stay strong when you were shopping! It's always so tough, especially when you some really cute designer items!
ReplyDeleteNot buying anything is impressive! I don't know that I could have shown the same strength.
ReplyDeleteFinal walkthrough - so exciting!! You have me craving a trip to Michael's now - I haven't been in forever and the 80's theme sounds like a great night out!
ReplyDeleteMichael's has that stuff? Say whaaat. But it's a good idea not to go crazy as you're getting mortgages set and all.
ReplyDeleteYour friends are rocking the 80s gear. Fabulous.
I may or may not run to Michael's today after seeing that cute stuff! Though I'm so impressed you resisted buying anything while shopping! The 80s party looks so fun- loving the ms pacman!
ReplyDeleteGreat job showing restraint while shopping this weekend - I don't know if I would have been able to haha! So glad you had a great, fun and productive weekend! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteHaha yeah we totally didn't dress up! I just didn't have the time to put something together, nor did I want to spend the money. So much fun seeing you guys on Saturday, and yay for your final walk through. So exciting!!!

ReplyDeleteThat food looks delicious!!! My husband doesn't understand how I can spend hours and hours out shopping but it is so easy to do whether you are buying things or not!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I've ever had Peruvian food! That looks really good! That Betsey Johnson stuff looks adorable!
