T-minus 7 days until our annual girls' trip begins. We have been planning this weekend for nearly 5 months. There have been numerous texts, emails, and phone calls regarding the itinerary and attire. Proving that we are indeed still girly when it comes to these things.
In 5 years, we have all six only been together once, and it wasn't the best of circumstances. Due to our widespread living quarters (Honolulu, SanFran, San Diego, Chi-city, Mississippi, and Charleston), we have had a difficult time, obviously, getting all six of us to be in the same place. Over the years, we have had mini-trips where three or four of us make it. And the cross-country travel is worth every penny just to have the memories.
So needless to say, we really had to plan in order to have all six commit to being in LexVegas for Halloween weekend. We have succeeded in what seemed to be a hopeless task. And everyone is ecstatic. JL has given countdown updates for months. Marquette has threatened to wear Kim's ass-less chaps a dozen times. Aham put off buying her flight with the promise that it would get done this week countless times. Kel sent a note via regular mail expressing her excitement. And Kim rearranged the birth of her (pseudo) niece to fly in on time.
This just goes to show that with a little commitment, a lot of flexibility, and a bit of luck...all six of us CAN come together!
