Weekend Rundown

This past weekend mom and I met Steph, Larry and the girls up in Tryon, NC for a getaway. It was our first time being up there as a family and it was so fun. The cabin was so quint and over looked the beautiful mountains and a river. It was so ideal for relaxation. Mom brought so much stuff, we could have stayed for a month. Well they are staying till tomorrow, so at least they are comfy. We did some shopping down on their main street where I got the cutest weekend carryall. So jazzed since I haven't had a new one since freshman year of college. Then on Saturday we all went to brunch at the bakery in town and hit up their historic civil war reenactment. It was so neat, it felt just like 'Sweet Home Alabama' with the real cannons and fake fighting. The south won!!

'Open fire' in the Faux Battle.

I had to come home early because a few friends and myself went to see Chelsea Handler at the Fox Theater. It was my first timE to see a stand up comedian. I really like her show on E!, so I was looking forward to see her live on stage. Her opener, Heather McDonald was wicked funny. She did relatable topics and made fun of celebrity which is what I find the funniest. When Chelsea came she did some funny bits, but then some were really drawn out and very Faux Pas which is not what I was expecting. I guess when you have a round table and producers queuing you on TV things run more smoothly. Plus Chewy wasn't there. Hopeuflly I have a better experence another time. I'm still going to watch her show though cause it is really funny! I love when all the guest comedians get tickeled, It makes me laugh even harder.

It felt like a whirl wind weekend even after taking off Friday . I'm just glad that I got to see the family, but wishing I were still there. I'm on my own this week/weekend. It will be my first Easter without family ever, but I'm going to church and spending Easter with Kali and her family. Love getting a week to myself. Well, Bella is there so we just chill. Hopefully I'll get a lot done. More to fill y'all in on later such as my eventful Monday night.

I know can you believe it? I think that was my 3rd this week and I have another waiting to be finished. Yeah Easter with no family is a bummer, but I'll be with Kali and her family so its cool! I might stop by sunday when she leaves for spring break. Call me this weekend! Have a good Easter. Love you too!
