Let's hear it for the girls!

Labor Day Weekend. What a great time! The girls and I had originally planned to go on a weekend getaway to our friend's cabin, but some last minute worries changed our plans. So, instead, we headed to another getaway location about 2 hours closer...the Holbrook Hideaway (aka my parents' house). Not much of a getaway, but it was still a house to ourselves where we could play loud music, dance, chill in the jacuzzi, stay up late, eat lots of crap, talk about boys, wear no make-up, bask in the sun and, of course, go swimming. We had such a fun time!

And now, a recap...complete with pictures.

Friday night a few of us went to Chick-Fil-A for some yummy-ness and shakes. After we were nice and bloated we decided to live it up a little...and went to Walmart! Woohoo! We had been talking about boys, but mostly we were talking about these 2 boys in particular that one of us likes. We were each torn by which boy we liked better for this one girl, so competing teams were formed. We thought it would be funny to make shirts stating which team we were on. But then it just turned into a night of making shirts about the boys we each liked. Yep, we are strange. But I wouldn't change it for the world!
Tawnya and Daja excited to make shirts

More shirt preparation

This may or may not be the shirt that I made...

The final results. We are lookin' hot!!!

After making shirts we had a small dance party, talked about boys some more, and then decided to take a little dip in the jacuzzi.
Doesn't Mari look awesome?!!

After sweating in the jacuzzi we basically just talked some more, danced some more, and decided to unwind by watching a movie (27 Dresses). The plan was to have a giant sleepover in the family room, but the actuality of empty beds throughout the house won over (except for Tawnya who fell asleep on the floor the second the movie started and didn't wake up as we all headed to our beds). It was a late night...and a relatively early morning.

The next day we thought it would be fun to go to Target because Mari wanted in on the "team" shirts. However, we got a little sidetracked...
(Dear friend, please don't kill me for posting this picture!!)


Needless to say, we each walked out with some unnecessary items and spent a little more than we had planned on.

The rest of the afternoon was spent swimming, eating junk food, talking about boys...ya know, the usual.

It was a great weekend!
