Girls Night

having been a bride not too long ago, i have such an appreciation for the thrill a woman feels in the months leading up to her wedding. sure, it's busy and stressful and there are about a million t's to cross and i's to dot but the anticipation of the "big day" is unlike any other feeling.

just one of the many celebratory events (and in my opinion, one of the best) is the bachelorette party. whether it's a day, night or weekend's worth of fun, it's a really special time if embraced for exactly what it's supposed to be - a chance for girlfriends to celebrate and maybe embarrass (a little and all in fun) the bride-to-be.

after a little reluctance, the bride in my life did just that - embraced her moment in the spotlight and allowed her supporting cast to truly relish the experience. she was such a great sport. she played the games. turned up the dial on her silliness. laughed her way through the weekend. and even managed to turn the tables on us.

how lucky are we to be part of this time in her life.
