Stagecoach 2015

Stagecoach sure has evolved from those early years. You can't just grab a beer from a random cooler in El Dorado 1 and slip n' slide to the next game of slosh ball. You've changed Stagecoach. Those were the days.

Luckily, we've adapted. This last trip was unique in so many ways. Hubby-to-be had never been, and although he's not much of a country lover, he is a lover of mine - so he sucked it up and came too. Since we didn't make a plan early on, we squished together on an air mattress held up by the Motel 6 hardwood floor. Remind me not to do that again. ;)

BUT- the show must go on. We had a blast reuniting three fourths of the Sister Cousins for a pre-tailgate pool party where games were played, gainers off roof's happened, and metallic temp tats were given.

Here are some highlights from our weekend. Now, I think we've done about all we can do at Stagecoach, it might be time to give Country Thunder a go. Since 2016 is sold out - any other suggestions?

Playing Catch Up

Hello! 

It's been quite quiet on the blog front - my life has taken a massive turn and all the fun times and living in first heaven have distracted me from documenting. So - in an attempt to create new content without one hundred new posts I'll try to consolidate as best I can. 

First things first ... NEW JOB!

This may be the most exciting part of my mini blogging sabbatical. I'm now part of the Pitzer College family. I can not express how much this has positively impacted my life - just paradigm shifting all over the place. The environment in our office and on campus is so encouraging, welcoming, supportive, and all sorts of other good 'ing words. I love my team <3 Aside from all the hard work we put into the day we manage to incorporate talking clothes, shoes, crafts, parties, and my one true love - glitter. I am so blessed and make sure to thank God daily for bringing my life to this point. 

Next in a slightly chronological order...

{please excuse me while I consult with Facebook and Instagram to maintain accuracy ;)}

Great Gatsby Party
As some may know, if I could choose an era to obtain permanent residence it would be the 1920's. I have a deep love for the lifestyle, the fashion, and the glamour. I can rouge my knees with the best of them! When I heard the movie was being made I dusted off my book {or purchased on my kindle} beyond excited to re-read. I roared in my 26th birthday with the decade - which would have been put to shame by this party the Trifecta attended. Set inside a GORGEOUS home hid an underground gambling ring marked with poker tables and staff, multiple full bars, a band, a DJ, dance floor, party favors, ladies and gents dressed to the nines, an In n Out truck {allowed to fall outside the theme because who doesn't love In n Out after a night of cocktails?}, the list goes on and on.  

Tim McGraw Concert
Friends, food, drinks, and country music are the best way to spend a summer. This day was chalk full of all the aforementioned elements of a good time. Old friends and new friends gathered for the kick off of the Country Mega Ticket Concert series at Glen Helen {I refuse to call it San Manuel - so whatever}. This is, by far, my favorite one day concert venue. The pictures below will speak for themselves - it was such a great day followed by a great hangover. Completely worth it but next time I'm reevaluating my day when presented with Fireball, Moonshine, jello shots, Vodka, and Capt'n Morgan - individually my favorite things - collectively not a recipe for success. I wouldn't have been surprised if I drank beer that night {which is a beyond rare occurrence}... 

The AMAZING bar Eric & Bobby built

Stagecoach 2013

Oh my! This weekend was nothing short of amazing... 

One of the reasons I work out all year, and the kick off of my country music concert series ... STAGECOACH 

We had an amazing group and an amazing time! I almost don't even have words to explain all the fun, drinks, food, pictures, sun, and music that went down this weekend. 

This summer is jam packed full of concerts for me so Stagecoach was a lovely kick off for the season. Here are some pictures from my weekend.

Enjoy...and don't judge ;)
