Girls Weekend

February 6th, 2012 Leave a comment Go to comments

Hey there! I totally planned on blogging yesterday but my mom and I took a spontaneous trip to Chicago to visit my sis this past weekend and I was so tired from all the shenanigans that I literally fell asleep on the couch at 8pm. I was so damn tired – I don’t even remember going up to bed?

But my weekend was great! My mom and I decided on Wednesday that we were going to go visit my sister for a girls weekend. We’ve never done a mom/daughter trip so it was nice!

Many good things happened on this trip.

I ran 7 miles on the Lakefront Trail at a 9:03 pace (surprised myself!):

Ate a burrito tarasco from the best mexican restaurant EVER:

Got a $12 manicure (seriously, only $12!):

Ate a funfetti cupcake from Molly’s Cupcakes for dinner:

And ran 3 easy miles with my sis Sunday morning before breakfast:

Was pretty much the perfect weekend.

But I always get a little sad when we leave Chicago, especially when it’s such a short trip like this one was. Luckily I have another trip planned soon (so that C can visit his auntie, too!). We’ll be back soon, Mandy!

What is your favorite city to visit? Do you have family out of town, too?

    I love going to DC to meet with my friends who come from Charlotte. It’s such a great time and have another one planned in April.

    What a fun weekend! The cupcake looks bomb and the burrito sounds fantastic. My fave manicure place in my town is always $12, but a polish change is only $8 so I usually do that, I love it! Glad you had a good time with family :)
