fredericksburg surprise!

on friday afternoon, i was completely overwhelmed by the sweetest of surprises! lucy had asked if i wanted to go swimming and of course, in my current physical state, cooling off poolside always sounds great...

i didn't expect her to show up with tamara and mama jessica, though!

the girls told me to pack up because we had plans to relax for the next two days!

i also need to mention that jessica left little junie bug for the FIRST time in her almost one year of life so that she could help celebrate baby perry and our friendship. and both mama and baby did great the whole time! so proud!

 we hit up the crowd fave on the way out of town... i wonder how many strange looks we got when taking pictures outside of chick-fil-a...?

after a couple of hours of driving, we neared the edge of one of my favorite getaways - fredericksburg!

fabulous surprise!

this is our precious little abode:

our cutesy little 202 house. so sweet and perfect for our group!

i have to be honest...

from the moment we walked in the door, i thought that our 5th little friend would pop her head around the corner in typical abby fashion

but she didn't.

i was starting to get sad until an hour after our arrival... she showed up bearing gifts from hey cupcake in austin! i knew that the weekend wouldn't be complete without her sweet presence!

 and the presence of these made it all the sweeter!

we spent lots of time visiting and enjoying our cupcakes...

 after a late night of chatting on friday night, i woke up to this beautiful bassinet for little miss perry:

i was seriously blown away. aren't you when you look at it? it's even more gorgeous in person! can't wait to put perry in it!

we then headed out for a yummy breakfast

 and shopping downtown

 one surprise after the next - custom made perry t's, polish and massages



after our amazing massages we went to a fun little wine and cheese place called lincoln street

this little mama got peligrino and everyone else enjoyed a glass of vino. we also had the perfect spread of cheese, fruit, prosciutto and olives.
right.up.my.ally.

it was divine:

we enjoyed dinner and live music along main street...

and the gals were able to feel the little mover and shaker

the peach tree tea room was excellent on sunday morning!

and completed the super hot weekend with yummy ice cream

thank you ladies for a great trip and for your love for little perry! the r&r was just what i needed and so was the time spent with each of you!

love you all!
