Weekending: Charlotte recap!

Monday, March 16, 2015

This weekend was a blast! We finally made it to Charlotte around dinner time and headed right down the street to Bakersfield for dinner. It was a.ma.zing! The best margaritas and guac I've ever had with an equally awesome atmosphere! Then we headed back to Kate's for some Cards Against Humanity and Catch Phrase. Things got preeeetty intense [and loud], per usual.

Cheers to my husband for surviving 4 hour car rides with us

My best friend since 6th grade, Kate

Saturday morning, being the early bird that I am, I got up and cooked breakfast for everyone: breakfast casserole, cinnamon rolls, and a pecan pastry. It was great to sleep in, relax, and have coffee with my best friends. We never get to do that anymore.

Then it was time for mimosas and to get ready for the bar crawl. Uptown Charlotte was mass chaos. Our green shirts allowed us free entry into 30 bars but we only made it to like 4. It wasn't ideal to have to wait in lines all day, but anything with my girls is a blast! It was quite hilarious people watching… they took the "green" theme quite seriously. Also, the sticker mustaches my friend brought were quite a hit, making for some embarrassing awesome pictures.

Sunday morning I drug everyone out of bed and made them go to my fav breakfast place in Charlotte: Toast. Once again, it did not disappoint. I decided on eggs benedict. So delicious!! Then we headed to Freedom Park for some exercise and fresh air. The girls relaxed while the boys threw the football. After a while in the park, it was time to head home :( We said our goodbyes to Kate and hit the road. Until next time, Charlotte!

    Ahhh what a fun weekend! I still need to try Bakersfield- I've heard mixed reviews but I can't pass up a yummy margarita. And I would've loved to meet up, but I figured you'd be doing the crawl all day and I was sick Fri & Sat so I wouldn't have been much fun lol. But hanging out with Cam Newton?!? How cool is that!!

      Yes girl! Totally took a selfie on his toilet too (that pic couldn't make it on the blog haha). Unfortunately he was in Atlanta for a charity function so we didn't hang with him but we did hang in his apartment without him haha!

    So awesome! I really do love Charlotte a lot. I am so jealous of your experience with Cam. Sounds like he's a fun guy! xoxo
