We had one wild girl's night out on Saturday. Eric's sister Jane is getting married in three weeks. So we got all the ladies together to help her celebrate.
The night started off at our place with delicious food made by Matron of Honor Gina and her mom, Cathy. And Beata was in charge of making the signature drink of the evening (Raspberry Mojitos - Recipe at the end of this post).
The weather didn't cooperate so we weren't able to have the party up on the roof deck but that didn't stop us from having fun. Jane received quite a few fun gifts for the honeymoon both for indoor and outdoor activities.
After gifts, food and drinks at my place, we headed out to Flirty Girl Fitness for their "Coyote Ugly" dance class. The ladies learned how to shake it on the bar and at the end of the class even got a chance to show off their moves up above the crowd.
Our last stop of the night was Plush for some more dancing, drinking, and laughing (and a few tears , hugs and I love yous once the beverages really kicked in). We did manage to stay off the bars there thought so that's a plus.
The next morning was a little rough for Jane but hopefully it was worth it!
And we went out for Brunch at a restaurant called Jane's in her honor. Jane stayed back at my place and recovered.
Next Stop - The Wedding!
