Ain't no party like a South Bend party.

Ha. Right.

This is an exciting weekend! Not only do I get to go to ND for my first wedding on campus, but I get to see many of my favorite ladies, too!

If I can get into town early enough, I'm hoping to hit CJ's for lunch before getting ready for the ceremony. Mmm... pub burgers. Here is my official vote for best burger in the greater South Bend area: CJ's.

And, I can't leave town without a visit to Chocolate Cafe for a Caffe Vien -- can I? (If you're wondering, the answer to that is "NO!")

Notice how two of my "musts" are food related? haha. (Roommates 1 & 2 are likely not surprised by this -- or Summer Roommate for that matter). I'm also really looking forward to touring campus and taking lots of pictures. I mean, really, is there such a thing as too many shots of the Golden Dome? If you're a non-Domer, I'm guessing you'd say: "Um... YES". And my fellow Irish alums and I would likely ignore you and keep snapping photos.

Obviously, the highlight of the weekend will be a trip to the 'Backer, um, I mean, THE WEDDING! I've seen secret pictures of the dress and K8 is stunning. It will be great to celebrate our second BP wedding together (though #'s 3 and 4 are close behind!).

These women are constant reminders that success in life is not what is written on your paycheck, but how you help others and the relationships you make along the way. So, to my women of BP -- thank you for years of smiles, tears, laughter, and booty shaking.

I'll see you on the dance floor ;)
