It’s always a good weekend when I get to spend it with my sisters. Our plans for a girls weekend ended up working out and the girls headed over to my place for a sleepover. We got some shopping in, some really great food and even a hike to help burn off some of the calories. It ended with me spending most of Sunday on the couch with allergies but I am not complaining it was kinda nice.
After the girls got to my house we decided on T.G.I.Friday’s for dinner. We shared a bunch of apps and had a few drinks. The waitress was in training so I decided to tip a little extra to help build confidence. I was a waitress through college, it’s not an easy job.
After dinner we went shopping. There is a plaza right by it, so we hit Old Navy, The Paper Store (that sign needs to be a DIY), and Marshall’s. At Marshall’s I got a new mug. I know, it couldn’t be helped.
We headed back to my house and used some Jamberry samples to do our nails.
The below sign from The Paper store could describe our diets this weekend. We did our traditional diner breakfast and we found a goldmine.
We made another trip to Old Navy and I totally blame them for the numerous things I bought. We stopped at Barnes and Noble too and I got this cute bag and a new beach read. We then went to my favorite spot to hike and burn off all the breakfast calories.
It began to rain on and off all day so I gave up my plans of going for another hike and decided to take it easy the rest of the night.
How was your weekend?
Linking up with Biana from B Loved Boston.

Looks like a great girls weekend!
Kerry says
It was so good, always fun to have some girl time.
Kelly says
Yesterday was the perfect day for movies. It looks like you had a great weekend…allergies aside. And kudos to you for encouraging the new waitress. My mom was a waitress for YEARS…all while I was growing up. You’re right; it’s not an easy job. Happy June to you!
Kerry says
It was, the rain always makes me sleepy so it was good to just veg. It is a tough job and not enough respect for how tough it really is.

I have been a newbie before so I wanted to pay it forward. It was so good!! I am not sure if I am happy or sad that I found that place!
Biana says
Is that tote bag from old navy – the one with the anchor?! I love it!! Love that you had a wonderful weekend with your friends – it sounds like lots of shopping was done! xo, Biana
Kerry says
It is actually from Barnes and Noble for under $13. Perfect beach tote. We shopped until we dropped or ran out of money! Haha!
Linda sheridan says
Great food, friends , exercise, and shopping. Perfect. Hope the rain lessens the sting of your allergies! Have a happy week.
Love, SMD’s Momma
Kerry says
It was such a great weekend especially because of the company. Thank you. I think the rain will totally help wash some of it away!
Marie says
Sounds like it was a great weekend. Love your new tote bag. I feel your pain with allergies, mine are so bad. I’m hoping all the rain we are suppose to have will help. It sucks always feeling run down.
Kerry says
Thank you. They had so many cute bags, and inexpensive which is always good. Hopefully the rain will wash away a lot of the pollen.
Bri @ My Life As says
I love that you also left a note for the server. That’s so sweet. I was a waitress for a while in college & I loved/hated that job.
Kerry says
It is not easy and she was very nervous about being new. It’s always tough at the beginning.
Jessica says
Looks like a fun weekend and all that yummy food!
Kerry says
It was really great to see them and the food was amazing! I need to detox now! 😉
Brianne Bracco says

Yes, I can fit so many books in that bag!! Hehe! It was so good and much needed for all of us.
Jana @ Jana Says says
Seamus’s face!!! I am so in love with it!!!
So, while I don’t have your love of mugs, I do have it for Tervis cups and had to physically restrain myself from buying more this weekend.
Kerry says
Thank you. He is a cutie. My friend loves Turvis cups too! Haha! At least you get the addiction! 😉
Nadine says

Girls weekends are the best!
Kerry says
They really are, and much needed!

Okay, I NEED that Diet sign. Hilarious.
Kerry says
Right?! I said those words about my diet this weekend!
Darcy says
That is so nice of you to tip extra for a new waitress! How sweet! Would love if you would check out my recent blog post at A Memory of Us dot com!
Kerry says
Thank you. I’ve been a waitress and know it’s a hard job, so a little boost is always nice.
kathy at real talk says
i love it! esp the extra tip and kind words you left the waitress in training.
Kerry says
She was really sweet and really nervous so it was a good feeling.
Kristen says
aww what a sweet idea for you all to leave the extra tip for that waitress. love it. i’m sure she appreciated it! meanwhile, i need that ‘did i eat that’ sign hahaha
Kerry says
I hope she did and it boosted her confidence. Haha! I swear my diet was so horrible this past weekend it was totally saying that too.
Meg Taylor says
What a fun weekend!! I just love that striped bag you got 🙂
Kerry says
Thank you. It will be a great beach bag.
Lindsay T. says
Fun weeekend! So sweet of you to leave that note – I am still traumatized by my first week waiting tables! haha!
Kerry says
Haha! It is a hard job, and so much to learn let alone trying to upsell. We had to take it easy on her. It is a hard job.
Ashley says
Those drinks look so good… Now I want an omelette… It’s been raining here a ton this week! Doesn’t do good when you are trying to stay awake and get things done… I LOVE that bag!
Kerry says
The rain totally makes you sleepy, and want to just cuddle up on the couch. They had so many cute options too, I almost got the yellow striped one with a boat wheel on it.
Kimberlee @ I Have A Degree In This! says
YEY for girl’s weekend! Looks like a lot of fun 🙂 You gotta show off your Jamberry mani
Kerry says
It was so much fun! Honestly I took them off after like two days. I am not a nail polish person, but it was fun to do with the girls.
Amanda says
Oh my gosh I love that smile sign!!!!! SO YOU!!!!
So cute that you tipped your server extra AND left her a nice note. You’re the sweetest! 🙂
Kerry says
I need to make it, so needs a place in my home. You are too kind, you could tell she was really nervous.
