Girls trip in 5 days!

Hello World! Aka, my 3 random readers,
In five days I will be flying to Panama City Beach to meet some of the best chics around! Erin, Kerri, and Valerie! We went to High School together soooo long ago! Last year we took our first actual girl's trip to Dallas. We stayed in the swanky W hotel, shopped, went to the Ghost Bar, a dueling piano bar, layed in the sun, ordered room service at the pool, ate great food at Del Frisco's and laughed our a double s's off!

We meet again this coming Friday at the beach! I am ready! We've all been working on our bikini bods. Though none of us are at our desired end point, we have all been working hard to improve our already awesome selves! (ha) Thanks Val and Steph for the PUSH! We will miss our 5th member, Stephani, this year! It won't be the same without her!  

Here is a fun collage I made into postcards for these girls a few weeks ago to pump them up, (like we needed that!)

These women are spectacular! We have all been through so much. The strength of this group astounds me! So many blessings and trials in each of our lives. The support system we have is amazing. Most of us live far apart so this can be the only time we get to spend together each year. Our men understand the need for this time of relaxing and fellowship. The faith shown by these ladies is also just incredible! 

We have 14 amazing children between us! Yes, 14! That keeps us all super busy! We love our babies, but appreciate this time to recharge those momma batteries! 

We have been there for each other going on 20 years! (wow, that makes us sound too old!) I'm so thankful that God put these girls in my path when we moved to NM way back in the day! They are a part of me, they inspire me, they have supported me in my low times, and laughed with me almost all of the other times! These women are so full of love and life and I'm proud to call them my GiRlZ!
