I have recently
been told, read about, or accidently discovered a few places that would make
great girl outings. I would love to do a lot of these things with Lincoln too
but some have to do with wine and he drinks beer and then the others are just
too artsy for his taste. LOL He wouldn’t enjoy it but I know some great gals
that would have so much fun with me.
Girls Gone Wine
Rachael told me about this place in Oklahoma near
Beavers Bend called Girls Gone Wine. I looked them up and agreed with Rachael,
this would make a great girl trip. Not only is it a great place to sit, relax,
and drink a little wine you can mix your own bottle and take it home. I’m going
to put this one at the top of my list. Not only does it sound really fun and
different it’s only an hour car ride from the house and before we hit up Girls
Gone Wine we can take a small trip down the river in a canoe or kayak. The best
of both worlds!
Los Pinos
On another wine note there is a winery in
Pittsburgh that I have been to a few years back but I hear it has changed quite
a bit and I would love to go back and have a fun evening catching up with the
girls. We all are always telling each other we need to go to Los Pinos but
never make it out. Piper, Rachael, and I actually did try to go one evening but
we were unprepared and never even checked if they were open we just assumed they
were so when we pulled up they were CLOSED. L I really have no excuse on this because
it is only 20 miles from my house and all the girls are really close too. http://lospinosranchvineyards.com/
Dale Chihuly at the Dallas Arboretum
I have no clue how I stumbled across this little
treasure but I’m dying for it to be available so I can hop on over to Dallas and
visit it. I might be able to talk Lincoln into this if I can make it worth his
while. Beginning May 5th and going all the way through November
5th the Dallas Arboretum will be hosting an exhibit from the awesome
glass artist Dale Chihuly. First off I’ve never been to the arboretum and that
in its self would be nice to see but then add all these amazing glass sculptures
and things to it and BANG…….. I don’t know what you have but it’s bound to be
pretty dang cool. Me and Lincoln’s one year anniversary is coming up on June
1st and I may be able to get him to go see this with me and we can go
to Top Golf after or the next day or something. Hey that way we both win!
Sayadream Studio
Last week on me and Kaylynn’s Winnsboro outing we
discovered the neatest little place. I don’t know how long it’s been there but
it’s beside the best cupcake place ever and we stopped in to see what it was all
about. Sayadream Studio is an art studio featuring ceramics and a place where
you can PAINT YOUR OWN CERAMIC! How fun does that sound. At first all I could
think about was I have to bring Averie here she would have so much fun but I
also would love to get a small group of ladies together and have an afternoon of
painting. I’m not very creative but they have all the things you need to become
creative right there. We went in to grab a business card and ask about
pricing. I was expecting it to be expensive because when I think of crafty
artsy things I think multiple dollar signs come into play but I was pleasantly
surprised to find that it was very reasonable and maybe even cheap. The plain
pottery is already made for you and you just pick whatever you want to paint.
They have vases, cups, bowls, little wall hanging things, figurines, and lots
more. The price is on the bottom of each piece and that is the total price for
that project. I picked up a cereal bowl and the price was $18, which includes
the bowl, painting, glazing, and firing. I thought it was awesome and can’t
wait until I can take Averie and get some girls together for an adult run at it.
