A weekend with the BESTIES

Oh what a fun and much much needed weekend. Saturday my bestie Hannah and I set out early and headed to St.Louis. We left the county life and arrived at the city around 10:30. This great timing would have never happened without the help of "Judy". You see, this SUV I am driving came equipped with a navigation system that we like to call "Judy". I have never used navigation nor have I ever thought I needed it..but everyone needs one!!! "Judy" guided us right to the doorstep of our other bestie Carrie (even through detours and roadblocks, "Judy" never got lost).





Once we hugged and freshened up we were out the door to begin our baby shopping and eating adventure. We ate Mexican, Italian and a stop at our favorite Sonic. We shopped at West County, T.J Maxx, Marshalls, and Home Goods. By the end of the day this preggers lately was tired!!! We found great bargins and I found maternity Jeans that didnt' make my butt sag. YAAAH!





Here is a picture of the end of the night by the Arch. We also met up with another high school friend Jenny for dinner that evening.

I think its pretty special to have friends for 15 years or longer. NO matter where we are all out in life, we pick up right where we last left off. I know they are always there for me and we have always been like sisters. We will never NOT be friends and no matter where we all live, we still make time to get together. In grade school, high school, college and now adult life we all still feel like best friends and kids at heart.
