Watashiwa shuumatsu ni Everett Mall de tomodachi to aimashita.

Does anyone think there is another simpler form that my teacher might be trying to get? I feel like I over complicate things a lot and it's really easy to do with foreign language! Thanks again 
The only question is about the tense. If "this weekend" means "this past weekend", your translation is correct.

Also, are you aware (or have you learned) that "I'm going to meet (someone in the near future)" is あいます, too? This may be what your teacher had in mind.
