Saturday we somehow peeled ourselves out of bed (hello hangover) and went and had some fabulous lunch at Ramsey's! If you're ever in Lexington, be sure you go. Literally everything is delicious. After lunch we headed over to see my niece!My friends had been dying to meet her, after seeing multiple pictures. Not even two seconds after we opened the door, my niece reached out for Sierra (top left). She is such a happy, loving baby, but she usually doesn't let new people hold her! Especially me. Now, let me be completely honest. I am not a "baby person". Babies do not like me. I break out in hives anytime someone brings up me having my own one day. (Obviously, I know this will change at some point, but really. It's just weird for me. haha!!)Anyway, the one time I tried to sit next to my niece on the couch for a picture and sort of hold her, she flipped out! She really was not happy. (bless her adorable heart)However, this time we had a break through!!! She reached for me over and over again and let me hold her forever!!!! I sent pictures to Snookums and he was mind blown. (he knows of my baby issues)So, my niece and I had a few moments on Saturday!
After getting in some adorable snuggles from my niece, and visiting with family, we had to hurry back to get ready for a wedding! Of course, on the way back, my air conditioning COMPLETELY went out. (104 degrees outside y'all)So. That was fun. Anyway...My friends, Sierra and Caitlin and I actually went to high school with both the bride and the groom! All of us girls were inseparable back then! So it was really cool to go see!
The wedding was held out at the Kentucky Horse Park, back in an adorable little cove area! It was tucked back away from everything, with a really cool stone wall as the backdrop!
We made the really stupid mistake of going out there almost 45 minutes early. It was no less than 104 at the time. We made sure to take a few pictures before sweating off our entire faces! The girls and I were laughing about how hungover, and dehydrated we all were. I sat beside a really funny couple who kept cracking jokes the whole time we were waiting on the wedding to start! At one point, he said he would catch me if I passed out (I was at that point people. Bacardi from the night before was not treating me well) and also joking about how today was NOT the day to forget your deodorant.
No amount of heat, sweat, or hangover could take away from how GORGEOUS a bride our friend made!! Her dress was amazing! She pulled up in a white carriage, and was escorted by her Dad! (We all loved him in high school. His nick name was "Big En" He is absolutely hilarious.)She looked SO HAPPY!!! And her dog Muffin, was the prettiest bridesmaid I ever saw!!
After the wedding, we all made our way back to the Rolex Stadium, and Judges tower for the reception! It was so good to get to hang out with our high school buddies. We made sure to help open up the bar, of course. By time the reception was winding down, all of us girls were literally exhausted. My dress had been soaked through no less than 3 times, and I felt like I had run a marathon. Thanks Kentucky weather!
My mom made sure to send me cute pictures of my little boy throughout the day, which she always does when they have him for the weekend! This pic was just too cute not to share!
After we spent a much needed night laying around on the couch and going to bed after the wedding Saturday, we woke up and went to brunch at Doodles in Lexington. This is another place that you MUST go to if you are ever there. Everything is amazing. I got a fresh made bloody mary, cheese grits, the vegetarian omelet, with mozzarella, red onions, and spinach, and my favorite, one of their biscuits. They are heavenly. I've never had a better one. They also have fresh made jam that literally tastes like you've smeared strawberries on your food. I am salivating right now. I want one. Oh. And there is some really funny artwork, like the "Doodles Ninja Monster"
But yeah. Back to my car. Poor baby completely pooped out on me. So we couldn't drive it home. Sunday was spent laying around, waiting on my parents to come pick us up and check it out. Of course, when they finally got t
here, the sky opened up and POURED. Sowe all had to get out in the rain to look at it. We decided that I shouldn't drive it. So poor Caitlin had to pile in thecar with me, my parents, all their luggage, my dog, and my parent's dog. (clown car status)Then, we got stuck in a storm. Then we got stuck in wreck traffic. And it took about 2 hours to make an hour drive. 
It was eventful.
My friend Caitlin's Tweets summed it up best:Pre-car ride home:"I don't think anything else could go wrong! Will we ever make it home?"and then, my favorite, her tweet while being stuck in traffic:"broken down car, Stacey, sitting in 104 degree weather way too long, passing out, butt sweat, awkwardness, rain, and traffic. OH MY".That my friends, was my weekend. In a nutshell.
