weekend recap

this past week ryan found out that his uncle passed away. so him and his dad embarked on a roadtrip to attend the funeral... in St. Louis! yes, very long drive. they left around 4pm last wednesday and are on their final leg today. so exciting he will be home tonight!!
i just didn't like the idea of sitting around all weekend by myself... that's when nelly said "you should come down here for the weekend!" my response, "helllllsyes!!" so i packed a weekend bag, that was ridiculously huge, and headed down friday after work.
i have to start by saying that this weekend was completely random and i have to admit, one of the funnest i've had in a very long time!
friday we met up with jordan & todd and went to kirkland to the wilde rover for some dinner & drinks. ok, this place was AMAZING!!! such a relaxed enviornment with great beer, even better food and the band they had was a lot of fun! i had the horseradish crusted salmon... hellll-ooooohhh, it was incredible!!
my friend heather saw (via facebook) that i was in the area so we made plans with her for saturday.
saturday before meeting up with heather nelly & i hit up the goodwill to find some treasures. she had some luck and found a couple things. all i found was a mild anxiety attack from trying on a too-small dress. nelly had to help pull it off of me, phew, still is too fresh in my head to talk about it. haha!
next nelly, elly may & i met up with heather at green lake for a little stroll... which turned into walking it twice. im so surprised i wasn't sore the next day! it was such a beautiful day for a walk.
after that we showered and headed to bellevue square to run some errands. then met up with nelly's sister kate for happy hour at ruth's chris. drinks and appy's were delish like always! then it was onto a bbq at ryan & ana's house, what a beautiful night for it! the food was awesome as well as the company. i'm so glad heather was able to come with us. it was good to see everyone and i can see a lot more weekends like that in store over this summer!

even though i had a blast down south i still am a little bummed that i missed the first weekend of the farmers market here in anacortes. i'll just have to hit it even harder this coming weekend!

hope everyone had a pleasant weekend like i did! and thank you nelly for inviting me down, i had the best time!
