Last month, I flew to California for a girls' trip to San Francisco. It was my first time leaving Lincoln over night! It was wonderful and refreshing and makes me miss my girlfriends even more. Two flew from MSP, two from Des Moines and me from Virginia. We all landed within a few hours of each other, picked up our minivan and drove to Ali's house in San Rafael. Thursday consisted of lounging, catching up and dinner out. It had been five years since all of us had been in the same place at the same time. Since then, we have all had kiddos (some of them have had two). Times have changed, but so many things have not. I love these girls.
What sparked our little reunion, was this little guy, Lucas. A miracle of science and love. He was a great little baby and I think he thoroughly enjoyed being loved on by his six visiting aunties.
We spent Friday afternoon drinking, playing bocce ball and passing around baby Lucas. I am in love with California weather now. Sunny, cool, no humidity. Glenn, when can we get orders to California??
The weekend went way too fast, but not before a little wine tasting in wine country! More pics of that later. This week is recruitment week for the sorority where we all met and it is making me so nostalgic for our college days. If I could go back and tell my college self one thing, it would be to savor every single day. Oh and to dump that guy I dated for entirely too long.
Thanks for hosting a house full of crazy for the weekend, Ali! Love you gals! When is our next reunion??
