Wedding Wednesday: Bachelorette Party

We're still waiting to get our wedding pictures back and it's beginning to kill me. I'm so ready to see them! Anyway, I figured this week I would start with my bachelorette party. What better place to start than the beginning, right!?

KC and I flew into Indy around 1am, early Saturday morning (the week before the wedding). By the time we got our rental car, got to Matron of Honor's house and got to bed, it was almost 4am. We got up around 10am, so MOH and I could meet the rest of the girls around 1pm. We went to South Bend (about a 2 hour drive north of my parents' house) for dinner at Applebee's, Wine & Canvas, and then four of us spent the night at a hotel.
Eight of us met for dinner. I hadn't seen most of these girls in 2-3 years, so catching up and talking with them was great. After eating, we killed some time wreaking havoc in Target until it was time to go to Wine & Canvas, where my old roommate from Arizona met up with us.
Wine & Canvas was the one thing I told MOH that I wanted to do for my bach party because I've always wanted to do it, but never had. It was amazing! Even though we all sucked at it, it was so much fun and all of our paintings turned out pretty decent at the end.
Most of the girls went home after Wine & Canvas, but 3 of my childhood best friends (MOH included) stayed and we spent the night at a hotel. We went to a couple bars for a few drinks and then just hung out at the hotel talking, laughing and catching up until about 4am. It couldn't have been more perfect!
 
The next morning, we got up around 8am and had the complimentary breakfast before making the 2 hour drive home. It only took us 15 minutes of driving before stopping for Starbucks; we were all exhausted (plus I was jet lagged)!

Meanwhile, KC stayed with Travis (MOH's husband) and they had a mini bachelor party. They went to a shooting range and a bar for beer and food. At least that's the story they told us. :)

Fingers crossed we have pictures before next Wednesday!
