monday night was spent at the austin christmas staple – the trail of lights. one of our dear friends worked on putting together this awesome event {more like slaved over}, and it was time to celebrate her accomplishments. she gave us the vip treatment. this means alcoholic beverages, heaters, and golf cart tours. and so much more. 
 

^^ remember beetnik? their booth was killing it with delicious chili and cocoa. believe it or not austin has been fa-reezing
 

afterwards we headed to our 11pm dinner reservations to one of my favorite spots in austin, justines. the food / wine / ambiance is killer. and they really started the whole "east side" thing, in my opinion. after spilling my glass and eating a few too many mussels, it was time to head home. thank you so much AS for such a fun night ! and happy friday !
