Girl Trip: "VIVA LAS VEGAS"

We truly partied like it was 1999--"mom" style, of course! I can't believe it had been ten years since we all went on a trip. Hopefully that won't happen again! It was so nice to be with friends that I have known since elementary/junior high. I had a blast. We mostly chatted the whole trip which was fabulous. We were also able to fit in some pool time, shopping, lots of eating and a movie. I came back inspired, rejuvenated and wanting to be a better person, spouse and mother. Everyone was such an inspiration to me. Miche gave me permission to copy the highlights she wrote which basically sums up our trip:

-Jane meeting "Flavor Flav" on the plane ride over and being "subjected to his bad grammar"
-Cheesecake Factory. Miche's old man meatloaf....
-Our fun gift baskets that struck up laughing and crying moments
-Seeing the movie "Fame"...switch the "F" to "L" for big fat "Lame"
-Four prego women and lots of talk about the kidlets
-A 10 pound bag of candy compliments of Marti
-Roaming the oulets for a great deal
-Listening to music from high school- how did Backstreet and Spice Girls go out of style?!! ha!
-An amazing mansion to stay in!
-Catching some church Espanol style
-Taking the time to actually get ready and put on makeup and do hair. Learning some great techniques from my stylish friends!
-Following our iphone for directions, even if there were a few doosies (J. pulling out in front of a bus 10 feet away! or Miche leading Katie to the "Henderson Executive Airport". oh goodness)
-Reminissing about the good ol' Oly days and getting laughing attacks about our teen years
-The amazing talks, covering important issues and interesting jabber
-Leaving feeling motivated and refreshed.

The beautiful house we stayed at. We were so spoiled!

Shopping at the outlets
Our quick trip to the strip
All primped up and ready to go

CAN'T WAIT UNTIL 2011
