Bachelorette Weekend

With Jodi's wedding quickly approaching we decided that we needed to do a girls weekend together.  Friday night was her birthday and we ended up celebrating at the Arizona State Fair watching the demolition derby.  This is my second year in a row attending this event at this fair, which is funny since I ultimately really kind of hate going to the fair.  But since this was my second year I might start making it a tradition.

The next morning we woke up bright and early and to go boating.  This was my second time wake boarding and my first time trying the wake surf and I am now slightly obsessed.  I think the wake surf is SO fun.  I could do it all day long.  

Even Emily Beesley made it out for the weekend and lets just be honest... everything is just a little bit more fun when Emily is around.

That night was the actual Bachelorette party.  We started the night out at PF Changs where Jodi opened all her present. Then we hit the town.  Jodi had a list of 25 things that she had to accomplish that night and we had so much fun watching her try to get them all done.  Some of the items on the list were things like "get a random guy to serenade you" "Get a piggy back ride from a stranger" and "get a guy to take off his shirt and show off his muscles"  

And of course we ended the night hitting the dance floor where Jodi was in rare form (meaning out of control fun) and really made us all sad that she was heading to the road of marriedom.  We sure will miss Kimmy. :)  The only thing that could've made this weekend better would've been if Jessie and Brit could've been there.  I think its about time for a true BFF reunion.
