A Bachelorette Party Re-Cap!

On Saturday night, I had the pleasure of attending my first-ever bachelorette party!

My cousin Courtney is getting married in less than two weeks, so her MOH/sister Jessica put together a fun little dinner for us. Let's just say that I totally underestimated the amount of fun that four girls (all at completely different stages of their lives) could have during a trip to Applebee's! I didn't even know people still ate at Applebee's, but that place was packed all night, and we were right in the middle of it!

Prior to dinner, my mom and I decided to go shopping and pick up a few bachelorette-themed items! We also had some bachelorette party balloons blown up, and dropped them off at Applebee's with instructions to have them on our table when got there. 

Once we arrived at dinner, we laughed, sang, and even danced a little bit (well, at least I did!) It was so much fun! We also played a super fun card game, to see how well we knew the bride-to-be!

If every bachelorette party is this fun, then count me in! I'm already looking forward to the next one!

Courtney & I are third cousins, but are also the same age, so we've stayed close over the years. I feel so lucky and honored to be one of her bridesmaids on her special day.

Here we are on the day of our fifth grade graduation! My, how time flies!

...and 12 years later, at Courtney's bachelorette party! What a special bond we have!

Congrats Courtney & Derick, may you have the most fabulous life together! 

While Courtney's busy enjoying her last two weeks of bachelorettehood, I'm planning on being the next Bachelorette...like ABC style haha.

Who's with me?!

As always, Have a Sweet Day!
