Again!!!!
Miss Miranda May Swanson is getting married in October and what better way to celebrate then head to BEAUTIFUL Saint Paul, Minnesota and have a "six pack" bachelorette party?!?!?!
Friday night, after lots of traveling from all over the US, (and a delicious supper at a french restaurant in Saint Paul) we got comfy in our "Bachelorette Slippers" that Miranda gifted us and chatted until the wee hours of the morning.
Saturday morning, Momma Annie made breakfast and then we headed off to the Aveda Institute for some relaxing spa treatments.
I chose to have a foot reflexology session. It was AMAZING!
Salt scrub, seaweed wrap and reflexology foot massage........did I mention it was AMAZING?!?!?!
The "Bride to Be" chose a Caribbean therapy treatment which consisted of a couple of body scrubs, high pressure water massage and a rain massage......I think she would describe it as AMAZING also ;-) Here's a "too close" picture of us right before our treatments. We were REALLY excited!
Next up, lunch in downtown Minneapolis on the rooftop of Brit's Pub.
I definitely ordered fish n' chips. DELISH! Then we split into teams to enjoy the gorgeous weather and a friendly, yet competitive lawn bowling game! Mind the gap!
We were told that the key to good lawn bowling is "getting low"...
It was down to the wire, black vs yellow..........and ended in a tie 10-10. It was super fun!
After a post-game rest, it was time for Mir's "Personal Shower". The only pictures I have are ones taken of the "SWEET" cupcakes we enjoyed. (Thanks to Barb Moe!!) Guess which one I picked........
Yes, that's correct..... The bottom left corner........ MMMMMMMMMMM, I did not share my cupcake, it was too delicious!
Continuing the bachelorette party fun, we headed back to downtown Minneapolis to Solera, a Spanish Tapas restaurant. We ordered sangria (Mir's favorite), a bunch of amazing tapas for supper and ended with Churros con spicy hot chocolate sauce. Y U M!!!!!!!!!!!
The next morning, we headed to the Lake Elmo Inn for a FABULOUS brunch buffet. We also had a small surprise shower for Mommy and baby Merrill!!!
Well, another fantastic weekend together. Our last (but definitely not least) 6-pack bachelorette celebration.The good news is, we're back together in less than a month for the wedding in Omaha, Nebraska!!!! Can't wait for the Swanson-Fricke nuptials!!
