Weekend Recap!

Eric and I didn't get to go out for our 4 year anni because I got sick... and ever since, we've had things going on, he's been out of town for work, etc. So we finally got to go out on Friday! And it's kinda fun that we had to wait because we were able to hit up a brand new restaurant, Oui3! (I was totally saying O-u-i-3 until someone said it the way it's supposed to be said...or the French word for 'yes." Oops. So cultured... that's me). Anyway, if you're in Tulsa and looking for some fantastic food, amazing service, and a great location, try it out. We were very impressed. And get the homemade chips. Dear gawd they were amazing.

I'll hush and start posting photos now, but Friday was probably one of my favorite date nights we've had in a long time here in T-town. :) We always have fun, but for some reason, Friday was just extra fantastic.



Oh annnnnnnd Beth taught me how to to a teased bun so I gave it a shot! So easy! High ponytail, tease it (a lot) and then take 1 or 2 inch sections and roll them each inward toward the pony tail to form the bun. Pin each section as you go around the ponytail. So instead of wrapping the hair directly around the ponytail in one bulk, you're kinda rolling/folding each little section inward and pinning it so it looks like a bun! And the teasing makes it look bigger (and easier to roll/fold). (Does that even make sense?) 
Our favorite local jazz singer, Olivia Duhon, was performing at Ciao so we had a few cocktails and enjoyed listening after dinner. Fun fact: We also went to hear her on our ONE year anniversary. :) 

Saturday, I headed to celebrate Marla's bridal shower at Edward Delk's. :) Good times with these ladies!

Saturday night, Eric and I headed to my boss' surprise 40th birthday party her husband planned for her. She was genuinely really surprised and it was really cute. :)

Sunday, I met up with friends to celebrate Marla's bachelorette! I know it seems weird to have it on a Sunday, but it worked out perfectly because it was wine tasting from 12-5 in a limo. :) Sunday Funday? I think so. Oklahoma has quite a few vineyards and some are better than others. None compete with CA vineyards regarding size, grapes, etc, but the experience is what's fun. Drinking in the limo in between vineyards was also quite fun. 

As you can imagine, the photos got quite hilarious as the day progressed... I'll spare you from the MANY I took and just share a couple of the good ones. 


I also have a super short video. We jammed to rap, pop, and country. And the jamming started to include dancing and random head bobbing if you're Beth and me after vineyard numbers 1 and 2... I'm sorry for my horrible singing voice in advance. It might scare you. 


It was definitely a busy weekend, but it was a good one! Lots of celebrating to be had and I enjoyed partaking. :)

Looks like a fabulous weekend! You can't go wrong with a fun night out and wine tasting. That bun looks great on you-- I saw a tutorial for that style but I am not sure I can make it work. I am so bad at styling my hair!
