Girls Weekend

Every year,  my sisters, sister-in-laws,  mom and I all get together for our annual girl’s weekend.  

We are blessed to  have great friendships with each other.   We love spending time together and look forward to it for many months in advance. 

We’ve been doing this get together for many, many years.  Our main activity is shopping, but it’s a lot more than a shopping trip.     

DSC_0594There are  pedicures,  and boy did we need them this year.    Someone, and I’m not saying who, really wishes she’d shaved her legs before the pedicure.

 DSC_0598And manicures.  A little sparkle and paint does a girl good.

 DSC_0642Exercise.  If  you haven’t tried the Jillian Michaels Shred video,  you should try it.   But don’t call me to complain about your pain the next day.   You have been warned.

 DSC_0650There is food,  lots of food.  Some we eat in the hotel.

 DSC_0575Some meals we eat out.

 DSC_0567There is always wine.   My sister brought this bottle with a cute label.    She’s like me, she buys wine with cute labels.  It’s a family  trait.   She’s the middle sister, which must make me the smarty pants.

There is a lot more that goes on but I’m not allowed to tell you about the really fun parts.   My mom is scared she’ll get too many requests to be adopted into our family just to join the girls weekends.  And she’s got  her hands full with the girls she has now.

I love girl’s weekends.
