I kicked off my weekend with a night out with the girls organized by Erin.
A District themed gift exchange, which landed me an awesome gift from Jess.
The food was incredible.
The conversation filled with uplifting chatter and tons of laughter.
Just what this weary soul needed.
See that cute orange bag right there? Yup.
That was my conTRIBUTion (hehe)
I had District 1: The Capitol so my bag was filled with bright colored jewelry and make up.
I walked away with a sweet package from Electronics District: An iTunes Gift card and some electronic screen wipes. WOOP!
Of course a girls night out to see The Hunger Games isn’t complete without
A hot cup of Starbucks and a Sprinkles cupcake.
Death by chocolate. Always!
While I’m totally exhausted today from seeing the 10:20 movie last night.
These ladies made it all worth it.

With that said.
My kids are down for a nap.
Think I might treat myself to one too.
PS. The movie was intense, gut wrenching and amazing!!! Team Gale!! I know, sorry peeps, it had to be said.

Stopping by from SITS! I can’t wait to see this movie; everyone I’ve spoken to has said such great things about it 🙂
Looks like you had a great time out with your girls. Always good for the soul (even if you are going to see a movie about teens killing each other). Hope you’re enjoying the rest of your weekend!
Rags to Stiches says
Thanks for popping by from SITS. The movie was great. Being with my good girlfriends is always good for my soul, but your right kind of ironic that a bunch of mommies went to see a movie about teens killing each other. haha
Have a great weekend!

What did you think of the movie?
Kate @ A Creative Cookie says
Sounds like so much fun!! I saw the movie yesterday and loved it! As for teams… Definitely Team Gale in the books – Team Peeta in the movie!
Rags to Stiches says
I would agree. In the books I was more Team Gale,but for sure Team Peeta in the movie!

Natalia says
Oh that looks like such a fun night! When I am back in the states we’ll have to grab dinner or something! Oh and I have’t read the books yet, I am always behind, but from the movie, I am totally team Gale!!
Rags to Stiches says
Yes I would love to grab dinner the next time you are in the states! You should read the books, they are well written and give a little more back story that there’s not always time for in a movie.
Alyson @EisleyRae says
How fun!!! Matt & I saw it last night and loved it so much. Glad you had a great time!
Kassi @ Truly Lovely says
