The Weekend

My friend Irene (from Texas) came and visited with us this weekend..it was so much fun and awesome to see her!!! We went to highschool together and everytime we see each other its like "old" times again....

Friday night we picked her up in Mpls...we then went to eat at Khan's Mongolian BBQ (yummy!!) and then headed home..got back to our house around 11pm and stayed up chatting until close to 1am.

Saturday morning we got up early and headed into town as she was on a Packer shopping mission for Superbowl memorabilia for herself and friends back home in Texas..we went shopping all over town and had lunch at Dana's (she wanted real Wisconsin cheese curds) so I took her to the best place in the world!!!

Then we headed back to my house as I was having a Premier Jewelry party at 3pm....we had so much fun making desserts and appetizers!! The jewelry party was so much fun and I ended up with LOTS of free stuff so that was really cool!!! After the party Jim and Carol (our friends from Eau Claire) stayed and we made some drinks and sat around chatting for a while before heading to the casino.

We then did a little gambling and then ate at the buffet (again with more food...) We got home around 1am and headed to bed...we were all beat!!

Sunday morning we got up early and headed to Mpls...did a lot of shopping (and found more cool Packer stuff..we went to the Mall of America, found a Whole Foods store and got some flavored Stevia (can't wait to try that stuff in my coffee), and other fun stuff.....it was a great day!!!

Dropped Irene off and headed home....I'm so tired and about to fall asleep at the computer...I definitely need to catch up on my sleep!!!

But I had to share this...for Valentines Day Kevin ordered me a custom Miche shell for my Miche purse...I love it!! Now I can't wait for it to get here!!!!!

Sounds like a fun time for sure. (I was drooling a little at the cheese curds part.)
Love your new blog look!

HEY RACHEL,

Your friend is cute, but why isn't there even one picture of YOU? I'd love to see you in pictures, since I can't see you in person.

Anna
PS- what's a Miche?
