No One's Touched My Ass Since 1967!

Last Friday, my good friend and colleague got married. Last Wednesday night, I headed to Buffalo for her bachelorette party! I love a good bachelorette party.

This party was particular interesting because the bride's stepmom, mother-in-law, and two of her aunts were also joining in on the festivities. And let me tell you - they might be older than us, but they sure can party. I felt a little out of place in my bootcut jeans next to their skinny jeans and jean skirts. But, I soon got over that uncomfort because they also provided me with lots of laughs.

Mother-in-Law: My husband didn't want me to put any money in my back pocket. He was afraid someone would take it. Hmmph. Take it. No one has touched my ass since 1967 and I don't think they're going to start tonight!

She also insisted on her need to kick one of Stephanie's really cute friends off the island.

I think her exact quote was, I vote we kick the barbie off the island!

And everyone was so amazingly accomodating to the fact that I couldn't drink. They kept bringing me shots of Sprite so I could still toast in all the shots with them!

28 weeks

So I don't usually like to post twice in one day. I think its confusing. Too much for me to process.

But. Today I am officially in the third trimester, 28 weeks pregnant! I've been lucky because it's really been very easy. Anyway, because I'm sick of Ingrid yelling at me to post pictures of my belly, here you go!...

A Midday Pick Me Up

When we got to St. Louis, the first place we went was the Budweiser museum.

This was a really fun tour.

Even though our tourguide wasn't very good. You could barely tell what he was saying and he didn't really know what was going on.

Tourguide: You can't imagine how long it takes us to memorize all this information
Caton: What is he talking about? I basically have it all memorized after one tour

And we got to see the famous Clydesdale horses.

And the ornateness of the old facility was sort of aweing.

Plus at the end of the tour you get free tastings of beer. On a trip that was initially free. Both Caton and I were expecting small tasting cups of beer.

But then when we got into the tasting room what they were giving out was actual glasses of beer. And they weren't really patrolling the two free tasting limit. So 25 minutes and three beers later, Caton was feeling a little tipsy. And two pepsi's later, I was feeling great! Needless to say, the few hours after the Budweiser tour marked the only time on the entire trip when I drove. (PS. Caton was absolutely amazing and drove thousands and thousands of miles without complaining or asking me to drive or accepting driving offers, which really, was fine with me)
