The weekend came (and went) very quickly. We were off to Columbus for the majority of the weekend...and goodness, we had the best hosts. They showed us the best time and catered to our every need, even when we didn't realize we had a "need". Friday evening once we got there, we went to dinner at a local sushi joint, then went to the famous Jeni's ice cream! You guys. It was UNREAL. I really never thought ice cream could taste so good. The employees were so sweet and I think I sampled over 7 flavors!
We spent that evening in their basement, where Andy started the most amazing, loud, crackly fire!!
The next morning, Megan took me to her favorite class at Barre 3! Holy smokes, you guys! I didn't know whether or not I was going to survive that class at one point, but I really loved it! Then we got breakfast at a local cafe, and I had some friends join me ;)
We got cleaned up, and relaxed by another fire before heading out for our fun evening at the Columbus Zoo! Luckily, Megan and Andy thought we should go early to beat the rush..and we really did! The line of cars to get in was probably almost 45 minutes long by the time we were leaving! We had SUCH a great time. Caleb and I had never been to a zoo together, so it was a blast. Laughs were had, lights were enjoyed, and ornaments were bought!
Then we ended the night with a competitive game of 'Like Minds'...complete with (you guessed it!) another fire!
How could I forget to mention their ADORABLE dog, Romeo??
Overall, we made a ton of new memories, did new things together, and had a blast with our sweet friends. Unfortunately we don't get to see each other much, but when we do, its a blast. What cracks me up the most is that we all met through mutual friends...but we clicked so well, you'd think we've known them forever! We got home Sunday morning and had ourselves an awesome time celebrating an early Christmas with Caleb's family...but I'm too worn out to recap all that fun just yet! Hope you all had an amazing weekend!!

That photo of you two with the Christmas lights behind you needs to be your Christmas card photo next year. It's perfect! Glad you had a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteJeni's is the absolute best! My favorite is the brambleberry crisp. Glad you had a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteA weekend well spent! Barre classes are NO joke, right?! So glad you were able to take one.
ReplyDeleteThat ice cream does look good!! So glad y'all had a fun weekend!!!! The pictures are incredible, of course! Loving that picture of y'all!!
ReplyDeleteSUCH a good pic of you and Caleb at the zoo- so glad you got to go!!! :) xo
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect way to spend your weekend friend. I'm with Erin, the pictue of you an Caleb is the best. You look fabulous as always. Every time I see your brown hair it makes me want to take the plunge. I have a hair appt tomorrow.... we shall see. :) Hope you are doing amazing!
ReplyDeleteJeni's! Jeni's! Jeni's! I could go there every weekend (and week day) if Freddie would take me ;) What a fun weekend!! My best friend lives in Columbus so sounds like I finally need to go visit and check it out.
ReplyDeleteJeni's is the BEST. My SIL lives in Columbus and we always go to Jeni's. Sounds like a great weekend and that picture of you two lovebirds at the zoo is ahhhh-mazing. :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun weekend! That ice cream looks to die for. I should add that place to our Ohio bucket list of things to do and places to visit. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had an awesome time in Columbus! Yes, Jeni's! It has slowly crept its way to Nashville and Chicago, so I'm hoping for an Indianapolis one soon. Love your pictures as always! :)
ReplyDeleteI've lived in Ohio for a couple years now and still haven't experienced Jeni's! It's definitely on my to-do list. :)
ReplyDeleteHey!!! I live in Columbus! :) Jeni's is my greatest weakness. There's one a couple miles down the road and I can't let myself think about it. I've been wanting to go to Wild Lights this year, but we still haven't made it. Maybe after Christmas. I love it!
ReplyDeleteAh that sounds like such a fun weekend!! I need some more fires in my life - I love reading by one and the smells :) I hope work goes by so quick for you tomorrow!!
ReplyDeleteI'm late with this, but so glad you had a great weekend in Columbus! I love Jeni's and I'm not always sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing that I can walk to one!
