Girls Weekend

I forgot to blog about GIRLS WEEKEND!

Last weekend, my best friend of all time Amy Sparks flew in from San Francisco and spent the weekend! Giulia, Viktoria, Amy, and I have been friends since we were 9 years old. We rarely see each other (in this case, it had been 2 years) but it seems like we were never apart. We're just all very connected and on the same page about everything.

I went to Giulia's at about 5:30 and Giulia, Viktoria, and I made T-Shirts with fabric paint and iron on letters. They said "Wolfpack Weekend 2011." We also made a sign that said Welcome Back to the Wolfpack. Then, we were off to the airport. We waited for what seemed like forever for her to step out of the gate, and finally we saw her! There are pictures of the reunion, I will post them later! After that, we went to Frontier Room in Belltown where our other friend since age 9 Max works :) We had a good time dancing and drinking. Then, Amy and I went back to my house and passed out.

The next day, we had breakfast at Patty's Eggnest and walked around Alderwood Mall. I swear, that is the first time I've ever been to the mall and not bought anything! After that, we went to Lovers and then back to Giulia's where we watched a movie. We decided to go to Anthony's for dinner, so we got a seat. Looking at the menu, we decided nothing sounded good, so we went across the parking lot to Arnie's. When we got there, the menu was terrible again! After 2 failed attempts, we decided to go to Applebee's for Happy Hour.

After dinner, we made a trip to the place where it all started: Lynnwood Intermediate School! We sat in front of our old 5th grade classroom and wrote our teacher a note (he still teaches there!) We did cartwheels in the grass area like old times and played on the playground. It was a real blast from the past and really great memories. After that, we went to my parents house so they could see Amy and Giulia. They were both very excited to see them :) Then, we went to my house and played games and had drinks and laughed the entire night.

The next morning, we took Amy to the airport. Honestly, that was one of the best weekends I have EVER had. Amy is planning another trip here in November and I just can't wait.
