girls weekend - 2008

i feel like i just got done writing about last years girls weekend to the Schwitters Cabin and here it has come and gone again...another summer weekend with the ladies. ...this weekend we celebrate our 10th trip. crazy how time flies. crazy that we have already been out of college for 10 years.





this time around we headed south of the cities about 30 minutes to Northfield, MN where we stayed in a comfy Bed and Breakfast called The Magic Door. it was old, but nice. we drew sticks to see who got to be roommates this time around and i was lucky enough to get the shortest one..thus i got to kick it with Sara (and baby). our room was nice, we had a big old spa bath tub and a super soft bed. Tammy and Heather were upstairs, and they had a huge spa bath tub...I'd even call it a mini pool. so, part of our weekend was spent taking baths. something i don't do very often. it was nice.Friday night we pretty much got there, had subway and hit caribou, watched a little of opening night of the Olympics, and than called it a night. Saturday was spent checking out all the downtown shops. they were very cute. i took a bike ride and almost got taken out by a truck...that wasn't so fun. scared the living life right out of me. we found fun places to eat lunch and dinner and spent lots of time chatting about...well, whatever it is girls chat about. but it always seems that while talking i learn something new about my college friends; it's funny how you think ya know someone and than bam...something new comes up. Sunday I slept in. the moms couldn't sleep past 6:30. later that morning we had a little run in with ants in our breakfast; i wont go into detail- and than went to a super nice spa for the afternoon. i got a fantastic massage and a hair cut. very worth it! (although my skin is still very oily and it's been almost 5 hours since.) so...all in all another very successful weekend with the girls.
we have already talked about what our plans should be for next summer. i am so glad that i have these short little get aways with some of the coolest peeps that came out of NWC. girls....regardless if you think i was mad at you our freshman year for moving my stero, or if i was super intimidating, or if for some odd reason you thought i was to cool for you- well, ...your rock my world- i totally dig you all. sweet!!!!
oh yes..this pic need an explanation. we were had set the timer for a group picture after our dinner at the Tavern...and a dude ran right in front of it. i think that perfect timing- and super funny!!!! we tried again-and got a good one. just thought this one was cooler to post.
