DALLAS

Some of my college girlfriends and I had a little reunion last weekend in Dallas. Three of the six that went live there, so luckily we has comfy places to rest our heads during all the naps we took. Wait, what? That was in my dreams. It was fun, relaxing, we tried new things, had some time out on the town--good times had by all. Pretty cool place too; they live in uptown Dallas and it certainly provides many fun, inexpensive (or expensive-you're pick) things for you to do. The gals all live within walking distance so we got a good feel of the place and lots of steps in-bonus!

I will always have a special place in my heart for these fun, crazy girls-even if I can't keep up with them as much anymore. These sweet gals are always full of laughs and up for a good time-love these ladies! (And a special thanks to Jamie for driving and Ashlynn for sharing her bed and humble abode!)

Lots of cuteness and selfies below-just to warn you...

 

 

 

First night was full of relaxation in the courtyard, showing off the lack of grilling experience we all have, and lots laughs looking back on our college days and how brilliant we all were back then :)

 

Then, the girls 'treated' us to yoga in the park. About 30 minutes in, Ashlynn and I looked at each other and contemplated sitting the remainder out, but we hung in there and it was fun. Personally, my first time doing yoga at all even-it was fun and funny so a win/win.

 

 

 We hit up a yummy restaurant for brunch after yoga then spent the afternoon by the pool before cleaning up and getting ready for an adorable little tapas restaurant in downtown Dallas. It was full of unique recipes all of which were super yummy-it's always fun to try fun places like these, glad these girls get me out of my comfort zone to do so!

Just feast your eyes: fancy philly cheese roll, meatballs, bruschetta, calamari (yep. and actually yummy too), fancy fries (not really, but I can't think of the name that makes you realize it's not just fries..?), etc. Good stuff, people!

 

 

Ideally, we could have gotten small bits here and there and made this eating last an hour or two-savoring all the different things...but we definitely failed to do so and stuffed our pretty little faces within minutes. After-the girls took us to this cute bar. Loved the setup of this place. Has a simple fun location downstairs, and the second level has a big casual patio area then with a large inside area full off different areas and furniture so you can still 'have your space'. It was cute and fun and we need one here. 

 

I swear our eyes weren't evil and glowing that night, as far as I'm aware, but I'm also too lazy to get a different picture at this moment, so you get what you get and you don't throw a fit.

 

Moral of the story: Make new friends, but keep the old, some are silver and the others gold.

 

I'm assuming gold means they rock compared to maybe some silver friends-so in my books, these girls are for sure my golden girls. Love 'em!
