My trip to STL ended up being great. I flew out of little rock on Friday evening and was in st. Louis by 11 that night. the main purpose of my visit was to see my old friend from High school Kayla. She is in pharmacy school there. We had a weekend packed full of eating, drinking, and cardinals baseball. I woke up early Saturday for a run then the festivities began with bottomless Mimosas. i then went on a small shopping spree (ooops). That night was perhaps my favorite part of the trip. We met up with some of Kayla's friends and went to bar 360. It had a 360 view of the whole city. It was an awesome time where I made best friends with the bartender bullet. It is always a good idea to become best friends with the person who can give you free drinks. It was a great night. Sunday also started with a run (so proud) We then went to brunch at a great place called the Wallflower. They had amazing specialty drinks and great food. After that it was game time. We went to the cardinals cubs game where the card proceeded to win their only game of the series. (we brought the luck) We then followed up the evening with Chinese food and the movie 42. Monday morning came too soon and I was back to Little Rock. I cant wait to go back and have more adventures in STL.

Weekend Warrior
Well Folks... it was a weekend for the books. Not only was this weekend a long weekend for me but it was packed full of fun. Friday evening was the start of the festivities. myself and some co works decided to attend the AR Travelers baseball game. The game was a blast and our team won but it was way too hot. So the first order of business after the game was a quick wardrobe change. Then we all met back up at a bar in my neighborhood called the Fountain. We made sure to make it a fun filled night. The next morning came way too soon. I did not roll out of bed until 11:30 then it was off to the lake with my friends Lance, Katie, Skylar,and Abbey. We went to Skylar's home on beaver fork lake. His families home was beautiful and I made alot of new friends. Once the day was over I wanted nothing more then to climb in my bed.. which is what I did and slept like a baby until 8:00 the next morning. Sunday morning my friends Leigh , Shae, Kristen and I went to the early service at church. we attend new life church and they are currently doing a series called big screen. This is where they show different movie clips and relate it to the bible and life lessons. This particular Sunday they plays Walk the line. The story of Johnny Cash. I pretty much did not stop crying the entire service. I then spent the rest of the day cleaning. Monday, was another lake day. My friend Caleb and I both took off work from HP to have a fun lake day with friends. We had a blast and I even learned how to Wake Surf.(I'm now extremely sore) Over all it was a great weekend full of friends, fun, and memories. Until next time.
