The Thursday before we were to be married, Kim and I planned a little combined Bachelor/Bachelorette party. We didn’t see the need for separate “still single” parties when we’ve already been together for years and just wanted to celebrate our coming nuptials with friends and family. We hired a limo and plotted a course all around Boise to visit some bars, get some drinks, and have a great time together!

- Kim and I in our Bachelor/Bachelorette finery kicking off the party at Red Robin. Our original plan was for The Ram but we had to make changes when it was packed due to the game, so down the street to RR!
-
- Enjoying our meals and beers as we wait for the rest of the party to arrive. Doesn’t everyone look great in their shirts?
-
- Watching the game and enjoying some drinks. Rod’s limo should be here any moment!
-
- We’re partying in style with Rod’s Limos! Let’s load up and head off to our first stop!
-
- Here we are posing with Randy “Rod” Fowler our limo driver for the evening. As usual, Jeff is hamming things up.
-
- Our first stop was at O’Michael’s. I like the name, I like Irish things (Guinness!), and I’ve never been there before, so we made it our first stop!
-
- The Symposion is a dog-friendly bar and Kim loves dogs so we stopped in. Unfortunately, there were no dogs visiting at that time. Jeff however had decided we had way too many extra shirts and began “gifting” them to strangers. Here’s his first victim.
-
- This was our fourth stop. We stopped at the Payette Brewery after O’Michael’s but I didn’t get any pictures. By this time, we’re well on our way to being thoroughly sloshed.
-
- We had a rotating crew of passengers in the limo throughout the night. Here we are enjoying the ride with Jeff sitting next to the box of shirts.
-
- Our last stop for the night was at Liquid Lounge downtown. The night is getting late and the partiers are getting pooped, but there’s still some mirth left to be had!
-
- Jeff really went into overdrive and managed to give away every single shirt we had (and we had tons). Here we are posing with all our “new” friends at the Liquid Lounge. Party on!
-
- Kim and I met for the first time at the Liquid Lounge which is why we ended the night here. The manager there loved our story and wanted to get our picture under the sign before Rod took us home. What a fun night!
