I DON'T GET OUT MUCH

Last weekend I took a road trip to Stillwater, MN with my Mom and Sista-K. It was a great weekend for it....Don't judge me, I don't get out much.

BEAUTIFUL STILLWATER




Stillwater is seriously 40 minutes tops from my moms house. The reason I mention this, is because I kept excitedly exclaiming to everyone how I was "going out of town", and I don't think this counts as leaving the Twin cities.

We spent most of the day shopping (along with stopping for a couple cocktails).

BACK AT THE HOTEL
Mom




Things Beaner just can't pull off. 1. Camesols 2. Using big words; 3. Magic scarfs. What can I say, I look like a muppet.




Sissy could even pull off the "magic scarf dress". If it would stay up that is... well, and down.





After admiring our purchases of the day, we decided mom needed a haircut (and to have a couple cocktails).




Always remember to pack your dustbuster on weekend road trips. You never know when you'll need it. But you will.Yes, that is indeed my dustbuster.



TIME TO GET CRAZY


After moms haircut, clean-up and a few more cocktails, things just got crazy. Sista-K bought a really fun CD with funk music from the 70's (?). You'll just have to hum "play that funky music white boy" to yourself while you imagine Sissy jammin.




And of course we couldn't resist showing mom Baby brother Dan's blog





DINNER!


Time to head out to dinner (and cocktails)

GUSSIED UP





Mom and Sista-K




Sissy's favorite Drink: Strawberry Daquri with extra big olives




Pigging out on chips, cuz it took the restaraunt FOREVER to get our order straight.




After dinner we decided to freshen up



And head back to the hotel and enjoy the hot tub (and some more cocktails). No. No I'm not going to post pics of that.

IN MEMORY OF...




Sunday we (slept in and) toured the town. The houses are AMAZING! I would have loved to have been able to walk through some of the more historic ones. The weekend was fabulous. We shopped a little more and honestly, got it ALL out of our systems and headed for home.

The kids missed me I'm guessing, they gave me a "Loopy Dance" when I got home.






Hmmmmm....maybe I need to get out more.

That looks like so much fun! It also looks like the kind of weekends/"vacations" I usually take my my sister and mom.
Ahhh...good times.

I especially like the freshening up before dinner-halarious!!
