Saturday was all around girly! It started out with a wedding shower up in Maryland for my neighbor, Jessica. The shower was elegant and simple, and just the right number of guests. Jess had friends come in from Boston, NY, NJ, and even North Carolina. One of the games we played was super cute, and I’d never seen it done before, so here it is.
One afternoon, one of Jess’s bridesmaids surreptitiously went to her apartment and asked Sean questions on video. The questions were then asked to Jess in multiple choice format (and were very tricky and humorous at that). After she’d answer what she thought Sean would say, they’d play his response on video. Sean is a jokester so he didn’t fail in delivering laughs to the ladies as we watched him talk about Jessica’s unwavering obedience, the fourteen children he wants to have, or the fact that his family will be riding bicycles instead of in a car to save dinero. We all had to guess how many answers we thought Jessica would get right, and each time she got one wrong she had to put another piece of gum in her mouth.
There was just enough time to rush home, quickly get ready for a night out on the town and meet back up for further girly girl time.
That evening we met up in a room at the Mayflower Hotel which Jessica’s friend had decorated with hot pink streamers. We had some champagne and watched Jessica get very intriguing gifts such as the Practical Housewife’s Guide to Strip Teasing and other delightful items, along to a soundtrack made for Jessica’s party.

We had a lovely dinner at Mezza Luna where they generously gave our bachelorette free neon colored drinks. And off we went to dance the night away at 1223 (or MCCXXIII). It was a great time. Although, I was really quite shocked at the number of guys who tried hitting on a bachelorette. Who thinks they have any chance with someone who’s getting *married*?!?! It’s a little concerning, and makes me wonder what happens at boy bachelor parties that makes them think it’s okay. Whatever.
My only complaint from the night was that I didn’t wear more comfortable shoes. It got to a point where I couldn’t really even dance anymore because my feet were killing me!!! So I had to go home around 1.
Okay, I couldn't *not* share this pic. At one point in the night, 4 identically dressed girls got on top of the bar and danced like no other. It was quite a sight to see.
