The weekend was filled with good food, yummy wine, and great company! Many of us didn't know each other so we would up making new friends too. Dina had friends from Florida, Brooklyn and Denver come a celebrate with us. Clearly, this is a woman I need to be friends with! She has an amazing love for God and a desire to surround herself with encouraging, sweet people. I wish we could do the whole weekend over again.
One thing in Colorado you can't get enough of is the mountains. Silt is in the thick of it, so you could see them all around you. God's creation right on your nose. It was amazing!
Friday night, we had tacos!!!!! Then we chatted some before going to bed at 1am haha.
Saturday was a busy day for we ate breakfast around 9 (Scrambled eggs, hash browns, bacon) then headed to Palisade to visit some wineries. The first one was my favorite -- they had all sweet wines. Cause I'm so sweet. They had peach, blackberry, strawberry, raspberry, and even chocolate wines. So good! The next one had mostly tart wines, so I didn't try any of those. We had a picnic lunch there as well -- homemade sandwiches with chips. When we got back to the Air BnB, I took a nap while others watched a movie or went into the hot tub. Then, it was time to get all dolled up. Now, if you know me, you know my idea of dolled up takes 30 minutes topped! The other girls....an hour or more. SMH We went to a rather fancy restaurant. The food was really good but expensive. We sang happy birthday, of course, to Dina when the waitress brought out her cake.
Then the story gets crazy. So, the whole restaurant stopped and watched us sing because it wasn't the traditional happy birthday song. After we finished, we were asked TWICE to sing it to other people who were also celebrating their birthdays. Apparently, we are now famous in Silt, Colorado.
Sunday, we got up early and packed up to leave. We took our final pictures of each other and the mountains then headed home.
The end to a fabulous girl weekend. Until next time!
