Weekending: Cheers

























































Well Monday here we are once again!  I can't believe we are already halfway through June, time needs to slow down just a bit!  Linking up with Biana today to talk about my weekend.

My weekend started on Thursday night.  Absolut released their new bottle so I was happy to take advantage of the free drinks and fun!

Friday night I switched from vodka to tequila for our work happy hour.  One of the girls on my team set up a happy hour featuring Maestro Dobel tequila and yall, the drinks were SO GOOD!






































After a quick dinner with friends I was definitely in bed by 10:30!  Saturday I got my butt kicked at a workout and maybe thought my lungs were going to explode.  Holy cardio!  I definitely wanted to take a page from Fat Amy's book


I had been wanting to try out a recipe for Dr. Pepper cupcakes so I thought Saturday was the perfect time.  After looking all over Pinterest I found this recipe and headed to the store.  Mine my not be as cute as hers but they did taste yummy!





































I think I didn't add enough powdered sugar to the icing so mine was a little thin.  I'm still learning a lot about baking so if yall have any tips feel free to throw them my way!

Sunday I went to one last work event and headed to Hotel Zaza for their Sunday School party.  Sunday School is once every 3 months and it is a huge party in one of the hotel ballrooms.  I had never been before but always heard it was a blast so when I got offered a ticket for work I knew I couldn't miss it.

When we sat down we were offered carafes and carafes of mimosas and after an hour or so of drinking I knew I needed breakfast.  Thankfully they came out with trays of food.
It doesn't look like much but I promise it was all delicious!  After a few more carafes of mimosas, the staff comes in and takes almost everything off of the tables and then the lights go out!  All of a sudden a DJ starts playing and the staff reappears with bottles of champagne and sparklers that they pass out!  The music is blaring and soon everyone was up on their chairs dancing and waving around sparklers and glow in the dark wands.  It was a blast but at some point I hit my wall and knew I needed to go before the champagne hit me too hard!

Even though I am beyond tired today, the weekend was amazing!
