girls just wanna have fun

Last weekend, I made a trip to Kansas City, MO for my good friend Katelyn's bachelorette party. I met Katelyn the beginning of my freshman year of college and we have been friends ever sense. Katelyn lives in Dallas now but just recently moved there from kc so she wanted to have her bachelorette party there so that all of her kansas city friends could be there as well.

Blake was very excited for me to visit Kansas City (he lived there a few years when we were in elementary school and went to college for two years at the University of Kansas) so he told me to make sure I saw all of the pretty fountains.

Here we are in front of the big fountain in the Plaza. It is so pretty there! (left to right: me, Ashleigh, Katelyn, Jessica)

The pretty Plaza.

After spending some time waking around the Plaza, Katelyn and her sister Ashleigh went to have some sisterly bonding time at a spa and the rest of us went to start the party preparations!

The food set up. Including the AMAZING cali wraps which I could not wait to try after hearing Katelyn rave about them on a regular basis.

Drink station. Where the "Kate-tinis" were made.

The girls (minus Ashleigh who was taking the picture)

After beginning the party with games, gifts and food, we headed out the the Power & Light district which is basically a huge nightlife area with tons of different bars all of which are connected together. Very cool.

The next day, we spent the afternoon recovering by the pool before Katelyn and I headed back to the Lone Star State.
Right before me, Katelyn and Ashleigh left for the airport (me, Ashleigh, Katelyn, Lynsey, and Jessica)

Good times were had by all. Katelyn and her fiance Jordan are tying the knot in two weeks in Southern California where she is from. I am so excited for their wedding, to see California, and to see all my super amazing girlfriends from college!

Hope everyone has an amazing weekend! I'm off to do lots of reading and get as much done as I can while Blake is at the library (oh the exciting life of graduate students).
