Sips 'n Strokes

Funny title, huh?  Sips 'n Strokes is a place in Franklin (they also have a location in Hendersonville) where you bring in your own booze and food and an instructor walks you through painting a canvas of some sort.  Now, everyone in the class paints the same portrait, but they obviously all turn out differently.  Shelley and I decided that we would kidnap our other bestie Becca for a big birthday celebration.  I think every parent (both Moms and Dads) should get away from the family for a night of fun and to unwind, don't you?  It totally makes me a better wife and mother because I come back rejuvenated and ready to be back with my family.  So, Shelley and I arranged this as a surprise for Becca.  We totally tortured her and didn't tell her where we were taking her.  And you want to know something else?  My sweet hubby stepped up to the plate and kept Becca's twin girls, Morgan and McKenna, since their Daddy works nights at the airport.  To me, that was above and beyond, but he did it for me.  Pretty sweet, huh?  I say it a lot, but I'm a lucky girl and VERY spoiled!  Check out the fun:

Shelley & Becca


Becca will probably kill me, but I had to post this pic 
because she looks like the Joker!


Shelley channeling her inner Jessica...or is it a walrus?  I prefer Jessica!


Making progress on our flowers!

Shelley's finished painting!  She did such a beautiful job!

My finished flower...not bad for someone who can't even draw a stick figure!


Becca & Shelley's flowers


Becca saying, "What's up!  Check out my flower!"


Apparently, Becca decided she needed every pillow in our hotel room!


Surely Shelley isn't that short!


And the sweetest Daddy in the world playing with the girls!
