BAB southern IL wine trail w/ pics!

Amelia, on August 12, 2017 at 9:39 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 13

This is my third attempt posting this. Each time it loses a little bit of it's fun. haha! Why won't it post?!

Anywho, last weekend was my bachelorette party. My ladies rented a house along the Shawnee Wine Trail. We drank too much, ate too much, laughed more than enough and now I'm left with withdrawals from my gals and all the fun we had.

Friday we stayed in and Saturday we hit the wine trail. Saturday night the ladies surprised me with a limo and we went bar hopping at the closest college town.

It was a perfect weekend and absolutely what I wanted, without ever really knowing what I wanted. Smiley smile It was a nice retreat from the AZ heat for me and nice to spend some time in the country for my Chicago-land ladies.

    I carried around an inflatable cactus. It's a tradition amongst my group of friends to carry something. The last friend to get married carried an inflatable alligator and before that, a giant penis. LOL

    Ok, last one. You may recall I'm the gal who did some crafting for my own party. I made the banners and last minute decided to whip together some hair ties as party favors. Pretty happy with my crafting and had so much fun doing it behind the scenes. Also, my dad is an exterminator so he contributed fly swatters as party favors....hilarious!

    What a fun bachelorette! I lived in So. Ill. for a total of 7 years between HS and undergrad, and it's truly a special place! Best wineries in the Midwest too! :-D
