Here we are in front of Unit 1515 at the Fairfield Glade Resort in Tennessee. This was our last morning of the trip and we decided to take a break from loading up the cars to get a quick picture. The condo was a nice size and had a room and bath for each couple (the six of us, plus my mom and dad). My aunt, uncle, their grandkids, Maddy & Owen, and Grandma Avis all stayed at the house my aunt and uncle own near the resort. We had dinner at the condo most nights followed by a board game or poker. As for the board games, we came out even. Boys won one, girls won one. As for poker, well, Sarah took us all two nights in a row. It was her first time ever I think at a real game of poker and she didn't even WANT to play the first night. Of course after winning all of our money, she was more than ready to go for another round. We had a nice, relaxing vacation. For the guys, there was golf, golf, and more golf. For the ladies, there was kids, kids, a little shopping and more kids. Chasing around Maddy & Owen was good experience for me I suppose. Loved every minute of it though. It was a great time and it was nice to not have to be anywhere or do anything. We hope to do it again next year. Here are some pics we took throughout the week.
This past weekend I traveled to Chicago (by train) for my good friend Melissa's bachelorette party. We mostly shopped and ate the whole weekend. Then we surprised Melissa with dinner (where I had my 1st glass of wine in 7 months) and tickets to the musical, "Wicked" on Saturday night. Of course she had already seen it twice, but loved it so much that she was determined to see it again. She started crying the minute they turned the lights off to start the show! Now I know why. It was absolutely amazing. I loved it and can't wait to see it again! It was a fun weekend to honor Melissa with all her girlfriends and sisters. The best part was, we felt great the next day! No hangovers!!! Here are a few pics from throughout the weekend.
