Painting with a Twist!

#105 – Take a photography class….Changing this to a painting class! Both are creative and artsy…so I think it works.

Groupon a few weeks ago came out with a nice discount for Painting with a Twist, so the girls decided to turn it into a GNO! Perfect! Painting with a Twist allows you to bring in wine and snacks while you take a 3 hour painting class. We had a ball, I would totally do this again. After our Midnight Mass class we all headed to Chili’s for a few drinks. I didn’t make it home untill after 1am! Great night out.
