A girls' weekend...

This weekend at the wedding, Drew was gone (with Jack & Derek) most of the time performing obligatory groomsman duties, so I got to spend a weekend with the girls! We had a blast hanging out with each other on our 5th year Vandy reunion weekend. We went to the beach, tried on wedding dresses with Mary (I think she found the one!!), walked all over Coronado Island, relived college-like experiences we thought we would never see again... ;-D, and attended lots of beautiful wedding events! Here is the weekend in photos:

sipping on our "mojito"

Nicole and I saw a delicious looking mojito on a tray passing us by and decided to order one to go along with the wine we were already drinking. Well, when we placed the order, we were the only two carded at the table, and then our drink tasted like soda water and mint (aka a mojito with no rum...) I guess they didn't think our ID's were real!


Mary's first taste of sushi...

From the look on her face, I guess you probably could tell she didn't have another bite!

How to become a millionaire...

Pan for gold on the San Diego coast!! So, while we were at the beach on Saturday, Ankita and I ventured down to the water to stick our toes in (it was about 60 degrees, so that didn't last very long), but we noticed the sand was extra sparkly and discovered gold scattered throughout the sand. It literally looked like gold glitter had been spilled by the tons along the beach. We aren't sure what it was or where it came from, but in our excitement, we decided we would come back and become millionaires (once we figure out how to separate it from the sand!)

Our Wedding Footwear

Because we walked to the wedding (about a mile), we decided to wear our flip-flops/sandals along with our wedding attire...it made for some very stylish outfits, and of course we couldn't pass up the chance for a photo!

What a fun weekend!! I drove to Coronado all by myself (my first time in a rental car too!) when I went to Taylor's game in San Diego, and I LOVE it there! I spent the whole day there just walking along the streets and sitting on the beach in front of that same hotel...It was beautiful! And the wedding was gorgeous!!! I love your choice of footwear too... very cute :)
