I love living in my boys world, but I am so thankful for those few and far between gatherings with my girls. I had such a weekend in Scottsale, Arizona this spring and it was amazing. We spent two wonderful days by a pool soaking up sun and nights out eating fabulous food and attempting to make it out afterwards. I hesitate to say we are old, but let's just say we were much better at days by the pool than we were at making it out past midnight. I have had almost 15 years of friendship with some of these girls and have been friends with all of them for over 12 years. While we have many more miles between us and conversations are far less frequent than they used to be, I never feel like there is any distance between us when we get together. I love each of these girls (and the ones that couldn't make it) and feel so so lucky to be a part of this circle of friends. On my flight home a passenger asked me, where you vacationing for Spring Break? I thought to myself and then responded, "yup." This felt a lot like spring break and it was awesome. What great girlfriends I have!
I am also so thankful for the wonderful husband I have who encouraged me to go away for the weekend, who handled our two little guys taking them to the zoo and fishing, and who said "it is my job to let you get away" when I got home and thanked him profusely for letting me go to Scottsdale. What a great man I have!
Thank you, Mr Johnson!!! We loved our weekend away and can't wait to give you boys one too!!!! Love you Sion - annual girls trip?
