If it looks like we got arrested, we didn't!! My sister, mom and I plan a once a year shopping trip. We typically go to a great outdoor mall not to far from home. This year we decided to change it up a bit and go farther from home. Indianapolis was the destination. We left Friday around 1. When we into town we headed straight for a mall. After all, that was the whole intention of the trip, shop! We were in the mall for a little while and came out while it was still light outside. When we went to put our bags in the back of my sisters SUV my mom said, "Kelly, where is your luggage?" Then after a pause, "Amy, where is your luggage?" My sister walked to the side of her car to discover her window had been busted out and her car broken into. Yeah, it was a great start to the weekend. After dealing with the 90 year old security guard, (Mall Cop!) and the police officer that we inconvietely woke up out of his beauty sleep. We arrived at our hotel with a garbage bag over the busted window, one bag of clothing - moms, and one bag of make-up - mine. No flat iron, no snack - yeah, they even took our snacks! (Pipe down mom, I know you were upset about this, but it is okay...Kelly don't forget to the insurance about the wine! Hehe!) We tried to clean up and go out to a decent dinner. At dinner our waiter was nice, but weird. My sister kept saying she felt like we were in the Twilight Zone. That is what it was like. After dinner we went back to the hotel all feeling kind of down, but determined not to let the thieves ruin our girls weekend. We tried to sleep that night but really had little luck. The next morning was interesting...trying to get ready with one bag of clothes and my makeup. Thankfully my mom is fashionable and my sister is a hair dresser. We managed...barely. Kelly talked to the conceierge at the hotel and he was great! He had his engineer fix her window with plexiglass, and kept our bags while we shopped. He also called Nordstrom and had them give Kelly a make over since her makeup was gone and mine was making her face burn. Nordstrom also bought us lunch and were super nice. All in all we still had a great time! It is funny to me now, I was laughing while I was writing this just thinking about the weekend.
