caaaaaaallliforniaaaaa loooooove! part 3

in SM, we got to do all kinds of fun things: a little shopping, a little dessert eating and a lot of good girlie hanging out. and then on friday afternoon, my cousin caitlin came to visit for the afternoon and for dinner with the girls. she'd been in dallas visiting her friends over the new year and had gotten back in to town the day before (so i'd missed her in malibu). in the afternoon, i got a mani, she got a pedi and then we went for coffee and a little window shopping down SM blvd. it was so fun to see miss caitlin since it'd been too long!

that evening, sarah, cath, and i went to get our hair blown out. it was at this new blow dry place on san vicente. caitlin didn't get her hair done - and look how fabulous us cousins look! bet you can't even tell i'm 10 years older than her! :)

here are the c/katherines with our fabulous new do's.

ohhhhh sarah! c'mon!! she didn't want her pic taken, but i took it anyways!

we went for a super yummy dinner at tavern where sarah mac joined us!

i don't get to see caitlin that often - it was so good to see her (she's going to nyu right now)- i can't believe how grown up she is - she turns 22 in may!

lovely ladies if i do say so myself!

sarah sandwich!! and more lovely ladies!

after dinner, i switched homes again and went home with sarah mac for a quick visit to glendale! for some reason i don't have any pictures, but in fairness we only had one full day. we got to have brunch with the dave in the morning and then we got in a $25/50 min massage at this fabulous place in pasadena. omg, heavenly!! later that evening, the three of us went to dinner at a mexican place where we all enjoyed our margaritas and food. and then it was time for me to say goodbye on the 9th of jan (a sunday) and head back to chicago.

a very very very BIG BIG BIG thank you to all my hosts, friends, and drivers for such a wonderful trip!!!!!!
