Girls Weekend in LA Day 1

Last Spring Julie, Kara and I became really close friends. Our kids were in the same kindergarten class. We spent the spring/summer going to the park, pool, lake, 4th of July Pool party & girl night outs! We had so much fun together...and then Julie moved back home to Southern California. It was hard to loose such a close friend...so Kara and I decided we would go down to Southern California and spend a weekend with Julie and make it a "Girly" Fun Weekend!
So we started planning our trip back in November...we picked a weekend when the Daddy's could stay home on Monday and watch the kiddos. We really tried to get tickets to see the "Ellen" Show but they are impossible to get. I checked their website 2 times a day and when the tickets came available I requested them within an hour...and we waited for a call for weeks...no call...we were sooo sad! No such Luck! As backups we got tickets to Dr Phil and the Bonnie Hunt Show. Sadly we couldn't do both shows...so we picked the Bonnie Hunt. It was a lot of fun!
We spent the weekend talking, laughing, shopping, walking, EATING, touring, smiling, sleeping, & pampering ourselves! The trip went perfect...everything worked out in our favor! The weather showed rain on 2 out of 3 days there. We were worried because we knew we would be outside most of the trip. I am happy to report that the only time we felt rain was walking to the car at 10:30pm after our day of shopping! It rained during the night but never during the day...we were so Lucky!
Warning: Picture over load...and it was hard to pick some to post. We took so many fun pictures! We documented everything! Enjoy!!!
Day 1: Shopping and Pampering!
Kara and I arrived at 11:30am. The flight was on time and relaxing. We headed straight over to a beautiful outdoor shopping center called "Victoria Gardens." It was so nice and had every store we liked. We shopped and shopped! We took a lunch break at PF Changs. And then did more shopping. Then Pedicures and crepes for dessert! We stayed up late planning for our Hollywood day and talking. It was a great start to our fun weekend!
We all picked crazy outfits to try on...it was fun! These were at H&M.

After hours of shopping...it felt so good to relax and get a pedicure! Loved it!!!

Our new shiny toes!

After our pedicure...we went next door and had crepes for dessert! So yummy!!!!!!
