This past weekend I went to Winston-Salem to celebrate some friends birthday and catch up with some old friends I havent seen in a long time. We named the weekend Epic Weekend 2011. We fit 14 people and a duck into a 2 bedroom apt for the weekend. We had so much fun! Everyone that attended all work/worked for Varsity. We all have worked together at one point or another and it was so great that we could all actually get together for a weekend when we didnt have to work! So for those of you that know how the redshirts can throw down then you understand why this weekend was so epic!
Everyone arrived at some point on Friday. I arrived at like 12:30, and Beth, Becca and I went out to see Erin at her store, saw the farm for a min and Erin gave us 14lbs of steak (that she had already cut and seasoned) for us to grill at some point during the weekend. She is the best!! We got back to beeca's house around 4:30 and well lets just say it didnt take long for the party to get started. Everyone finally arrived by 9pm Friday night and we just hung out at the house, played games and just caught up with each other. Erin and James even came over to hangout for awhile once everyone was there! It was just so much fun to have a big group of us together again!
Saturday morning we went to IHOP for breakfast. We had a party of 14 and you would have thought it was the end of the world! We started grilling out at about 5 and let me tell you those steaks were very good! Saturday night we went to a place called Johnny and Junes Saloon. Lets just say that we did not fit into this place but we def made it our own! They had corn hole, darts (without darts), pool, a bull, a live band and of course a dance floor. But the best thing they had were hula hoops. We did not understand why they had these but we def had fun with them! We played games from this summers beach bash and lets just say people looked at us like we were nuts. But hey you give us something to play with and we will play with it! We had so much fun making up our own line dances and just having fun hanging out together. We some how missed the memo that it was plaid shirt night there but we didnt mind standing out and being different because well when we are all together we are always that group anyway!We also saw a group of people wearing ugly Christmas sweaters and a woman who had a balloon attached to her that said "Its a Girl". I dont know if it was a joke or not but in the end I really think it is wrong to have that balloon with you in a saloon! Just not the right place for something like that! Lets just say this was the best place to people watch! We had so much fun, which we always do when we all get together!
But I had so much fun this weekend! I really needed it! I miss everyone already but cant wait to see most of you again in a few weeks at college nationals! I am ready fro round 2 even though we will be working this time around! Thank you Jenny and Becca for being great hostess this weekend! Hope this was a great birthday party for both of you!! Bring on round 2!
