Ashley’s Bachelorette Party! (Day 1)

Many hours and a few conference calls went into the planning of Ashley’s special weekend! We had it all planned out (or so we though).

Ashley, Sarah and I left Nola on Friday morning. When we got in the car we gave A her first surprise.

 

She finally got to see the logo Lexi designed and the theme for the weekend. I even made window clings, but as you can see below they were a fail. haha

When we got there we found the house in “hurricane mode” All the doors were covered with tarps so we could not actually get to the doorknobs to use the keys. We slowly uncovered the rented house.

Once we got inside, we realized there was one more sliding door and porch area that still had a cover on it, but there was no ground access to the space. Clearly we had to do something, so I climbed out the window. First of all, this was not easy for a few reasons: 1. It was over the sink. 2. the window was HIGH because it was over the sink. 3. I am short. Enjoy:

 

Finally, I made it to the deck (with only a few bumps and bruises) and uncovered the last sliding glass door. Then Sarah and I headed to the grocery store. Came back, stocked up the kitchen and prepped for lunch and everyone to arrive.

Ashley had ordered a Summer Board for snacks while we waited for everyone to arrive…

Then we decorated and played just dance! 

 

While someone kept Ashley distracted, I set up the Mimosa Bar that was a gift from her dear friend Melissa.
 

I hosted the dessert bar…

It was all delicious and fabulous!

When it was time for dinner, Ellen and Kelsey manned the kitchen for Gourmet Grilled Cheese Sandwiches that they made to order!

After dinner we played a little “How well does Ashley know Andrew?” poker style:

It was hilarious. I was the dealer and the girls would bet if Ashley would get the question right or wrong. Pretty stinking funny. We had some quality girl time and just hung out till everyone crashed.

Before I end this blog, I want to show you how the girls decorated the high chair in the house…

Until Day 2…

Love and Hugs, Lizzie
