Girls just want to have fun!!!

Last weekend I had the opportunity to go to Salt Lake with some awesome friends. It was my friend Kirsten's birthday and we decided that we needed a break from mommy hood. Neither of us had left our kids before, so we were each other's support system and both of us did very well.

Kirsten had the genius idea to call some of our other friends that live down in Utah to join us. Lucky for us they could totally make it! We had a great time and it was so much fun to catch up.

We got down to Salt Lake Friday night and met up with Jennifer. Kirsten was able to find us a nice hotel right across from the Gateway. We went to dinner that night and did some window shopping. Then we ended back at our room and talked until 2:30. We all thought we would be able to sleep in since we didn't have any kids to wake us up, that was not the case. Sure enough we were up by 8:30 the next morning.

We got ready and walked to a waffle place that Kirsten had heard about. It was incredible. It was called Burges waffles. I totally recommend it to anyone who visits Salt Lake. They were heavenly!!!!

After that we met up with our friend Alita and went to IKEA. It was my first time every being there and I have officially fallen in love with that place. I got 3 things for under $10. I couldn't believe it. We then headed over to the Cheesecake factory, which was also awesome.

We went back to the hotel room and talked some more, because that is what girls do best. Alita and Jennifer left us at about 11:00 and Kirsten and talked so more until about 3:00. We are crazy!!!

It was such a wonderful weekend, and something that I hope we do again. It was great to be with good friends and not have to worry about naps or if the restaurant is kid friendly. I love being a mommy, but it was exactly what I needed. Thank you Kirsten for having the idea and letting me invite myself. It was so great!!!
