It's Time for Weekend Shenanigans!

Hi Lovelies!

It's time for Weekend Shenanigans.. a mutual place to share our weekends, catch up on other people's weekends, and find new blogs.

Here's how it works:
- Post about your weekend
- Grab the button
- Link-up on Monday at 5am MST
- Click around and meet new friends!

**My only rule is that you post something about your weekend, and post the button or link back to me!**

Let's get to it and have some fun!






one. One of my good friends, Christa moved to Denver this past week and I met up with her and her boyfriend Doug for happy hour. Cinnamon Toast Crunch shots (Fireball and Rumchata) were needed to celebrate her arrival!

two. The bar we went to for happy hour (which shall remain nameless to protect me) serves the best Moscow Mules in Denver! Between the three of us we consumed more than I could keep track of, which lead to the "borrowing" of a mug when we left. I told Christa it was her housewarming present!

three. After a successful happy hour, we got takeout Greek and Christa showed me around her new place. We decided to check out the neighborhood bars and stumbled into a gay bar and then a practically empty bar. The empty bar had a back porch with Jenga so we stayed for a few drinks.

four. I couldn't wait to get back to my Saturday morning ritual of getting my nails done. They were looking rough to say the least. I decided to go for Fall with navy and added some sparkles for an accent nail. PS. Does Sandra Bullock not kill it on this Vogue cover? She is so stunning I can't handle it.

no picture. I didn't get a picture because we were having too much fun, but I got to go to lunch with Mal and her husband and I loved it. We stayed at the restaurant for almost two hours but it felt like a few minutes.

five. Saturday night started our night at The Gin Mill, my favorite bar in Denver, to celebrate my friend Sara's birthday! We bar hopped around and it was a blast. Apparently Sara didn't want to take any pictures though, because I don't have any.

six. This is why Snapchats should probably not be allowed after 10pm. I'm not even sure why I'm showing this to you actually. It's kind of funny though! The guy in the background is definitely a photo bomber and not someone we were with.

seven. Apparently birthday celebrations require fish bowls, at least according to the guy that bought it. At the time I thought it was a great idea, but the next day my hangover said differently. Also, it was brown which is kind of concerning.

eight. I decided that we needed to round out Christa's first weekend in town with the best brunch in town at Snooze.

nine. No, this meal wasn't part of my meal plan. Oops. It was delicious though! Green Eggs and Ham Samwich and a Banana Caramel pancake. I could only eat half of each!

My weekend was filled with celebrations and it was fantastic, but exhausting. After having quite a few sketchy friends in Denver these past few years, I'm thrilled to have some long-time friends around that I love hanging out with. I'm looking forward to more fun weekends ahead!

What did you do this weekend? Link-up and share!

It must be so fun to have friends move to your city! That would be my dream come true! Your weekend sounds so amazing, and the sheer amount of alcohol is just plain impressive. I need to stop being a grandma and remember how to be fun!

I love linking up with you on Mondays. Check out what myself & the baby are up to. Thanks, Ada. =)

Fishbowls are amazing and definitely necessary at any celebratory occasion.. but yes brown is quite concerning but I bet it was yummy!

I'm really just jealous of all of this alcohol and that food at the end. Now I want brunch!
Also the snapchat was my favorite. I died laughing.

I swear I have been craving a bloody mary for like 3 weeks now. maybe I should get one today?! loved all your insta picks this weekend, looks like you were having fun!

said...

"It was brown which was concerning." Hahahahahaha my favorite part. Snapchats should DEFINITELY be allowed after 10pm! Drunk snaps are the best!

So I need to know. Your nails. Are they your nails or do you have acrylic or something over them? Cause they are just my favorite. And I'm really sadz that my flight to Nebraska isn't taking me to Denver like I originally thought :(
