It’s arrived. The Bachelorette Party Post. And, trust me, it’s a doozie. Don’t believe me? Well, I met Jon Gosselin. Yep. Let me start at the beginning.

Thursday night before the wedding was the event I was most looking forward to (after the wedding, of course): my bachelorette party! I was so excited to hang out with and be around my favorite girls in the world. They had all flown and driven up early just to take part in this with me, and I was so grateful. After an INCREDIBLY hectic Thursday morning (picking up people at the airport, and an all hands on deck approach to finishing the cookie favors—for which I can’t thank these girls enough), all of us were incredibly ready for a night of fun. I was joined by all my bridesmaids plus Idaho bestie AM and amazing woman ST, whom I had been lucky enough to meet via Bridesmaid PF (goodness, initials!!).

It all started with the matching shirts that Bridesmaid AT made. Matching pinks tanks reading “Katey’s Ladies (my full name is Katey) and a yellow tank with Bride on it. My girls were awesome and sensing that I desperately wanted to wear these yellow heels I had bought, made us matching shirts that could be worn with jeans. The shirts are best viewed here:

The evening began with me opening gifts. I had to guess which girl had given me the gift and when I got it wrong, imbibe a shot of vodka, which was a throw back to my college years with AT and AP, above.

View my displeasure when I guessed wrong:

The above excited face is due to monogrammed swimsuit with my new initials from PF. My below sad face is begging AT to not make me drink with my wrong guess:

After opening gifts, we hopped into the massive white 15 passenger van my parents had rented to cart us around for the wedding (middle school style, y’all!) and ate some delicious tapas. So delicious that we have no photos from this portion of the evening. Then began the fun. I’ll let these speak for themselves:

And, my loves, I’ll leave you with the excited face I can’t help but make when I remember this amazing evening and my awesome girls that made it happen (combined slightly with my disbelief and horror at the random people we met that night)…
