Weekend Recap

This weekend was full of time spent with friends and family, which is the perfect weekend in my book.
Friday after work I met my best girls, Kels and Lauren for drinks and dinner.
We had a fantastic margarita at Galaxie in Nulu.

Then we walked next door to Royals and I had the BEST chicken taco!

While I was out and about running with friends, my poor Pop is still in the hospital :( but trying his best to get better.  My family and I would love all the prayers we can get!

Saturday morning Kelsie and I checked out Made Market at The Pointe.It was so neat seeing all the handmade pieces they had available.

Then we enjoyed a few hours and beers by Kelsie's pool. :)

  I left the pool a bit early to get ready for a fundraiser put on by Alex's family. His cousin, Logan, is biking across the country (started in LA and will end in Virgina Beach) for Alzheimer's awareness. Since he is from Louisville, and this was one of their stopping points, they had a big fundraiser at Captain's Quarters on the river. It was the perfect weather for an outdoor event, we had a blast while supporting a great cause.




On Sunday Jackie, Katelyn and I drove to Lexington to meet our Make-A-Wish Kid! We volunteer for the MAW foundation and are "wish granters". It was a wonderful experince to get to meet our child and help them in making their wish come true! On our way back home, we stopped at our friend Taylor's to meet her precious baby boy, Theo.

To end the weekend, I headed out to my other friend Taylor's for a cookout. Her family lives on beautiful property in Bullit County. It was the perfect end to a perfect weekend. :)


Here's to hoping you all had a fabulous weekend!

Xoxo,

Liz

Book Club

I love reading and so do many of my girlfriends. We are always discussing which books were reading and which we have on our "to-read" lists.
This led us to start our very own Book Club!
This meme made me laugh out loud!


Currently there are 5 of us and we just finished our first book, "The Couple Next Door"by: Shari Lapena. (While this book kept my interest, I was a bit disapointed :( It seemed predictable and just kind of "eh"... I'm hoping the next one will be a winner!)

How our club works, is we take turns picking the book. For example, I picked this first book, Madison will pick the next, and so on. We will meet once in the middle and again at the end to discuss! I'm super excited for Book Club and because it's a perfect excuse to hangout with my girlfriends! :)


Madison will be revealing our next book soon and I can't wait!


If you have any suggestions for books we should read, please send them our way :)
Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!!!


Xoxo,
