Girls Weekend in Vegas!

I am so excited because we have finally set a location and date for our 3rd Annual Girls weekend! The girls I refer to are Jessica, Leigh, Anne and Dani. We all grew up together in Montgomery and went to church together. Jessica has 2 kids, Blakely 7 as of 2/4, and Bryar will be 3 on 3/19. She is married to Matthew and works at the pre-school at TRBC. Leigh has 2 girls, Kaitlyn will be 6 in May and Abby Grace turned 2 in October. She is an interior designer and currently sells flooring to builders. All of our girls (our first kids) were born 7 1/2 months apart. Our youngest were born within a 9 month period. They both live in Montgomery. Anne is married and and works for Southwest Airlines. She lives in Nashville. Dani is single and is also an interior decorator. She works doing business interiors.

I have no idea why I felt the need to post everyones background. Anyhoo, Anne has received 4 free plane tickets for each of us to use for our weekend. Our weekend is April 13th! I am so excited!!!!! I haven't been on a plane since '94 and certainly no where like this. I have no idea where we are staying yet but we should have that worked out soon. I know it can't be a place too expensive even if we're splitting the room 5 ways.

I don't think anyone really gambles, just slots, except for Dani. I know I'll probably allocate $100 or so for Blackjack and that's it. I know we'll all find time to do so many things. I am so giddy I can hardly stand it. I'll take the kids up to B'ham and we'll fly out of B'ham so it all works out.

Ohhhhh... Marshall's opened in Destin today and I went. I got Jackson 3 of the cutest Polo shirts. They were only $15 so it wasn't too bad. I found Lee 2 gorgeous Polo shirts and a Chaps shirt. Then my score was a 9 West purse that was $62 and I paid 14.99. Then I was over in the luggage dept. and found the matching bag to go with it. Retail $120 and I paid 25 for it. Oh my gosh! I'll be looking good with my matching bags. The bigger one will be perfect for the plane.

I told Mackenzie today that I was going on a trip and that she was going to stay with Grandmama and Grandaddy. I made the mistake of telling her I was going on a plane. Oh my. She was so upset and started crying. She said that when we had talked about a plane ride it was for all of us to go to FW to see Bobbi. I tried to explain to her that this was a mommy only trip and I wasn't going to see Bobbi so she isn't missing out on anything.

Sheh going to see my parents for spring break later this month. The storms are starting to hit us now. I feel so bad for the people in Enterprise. The tornado going through there today and hitting the high school and the roof collapsing is just awful! Eight have died so far and as of 6:30 or so there were students still trapped. I'm going to get read for the storm. It's starting to get bad and I might loose power here. Night!
