Kara's a Bachelorette...

...but not for long! 

So, last Friday, her sister Laura and I drove up to Boston to take her out on the town to celebrate.

We arrived to a meal of chicken enchiladas and sangria prepared by our hosts, and spent Friday evening in horror, watching Bridezillas.  

(I highly recommend that you search "Bridezilla Karen" on you tube--you will discover the reason why our favorite quote of the weekend became "I'm nawt apawlagizing to a dawhmaan"...)

The next morning found us at a salon on Newbury Street, where some of Kara's friends joined us. 

We were treated like princesses,

as we laughed and talked and were generally pampered.

After we were sufficiently prettied up, we took Kara for some essential bachelorette shopping,

and then headed home to get ready for dinner at a fun Italian place near Fenway.

We finished off our evening with drinks at Top of the Hub--

a swanky little joint at the top of the Prudential Center with a stunning view of the city--

and then arrived home to these adorable cupcakes made by the doting groom.

We couldn't have said it better ourselves!
