Girls' "Weekend" 2008

It's the annual Girls' Weekend Extravaganza!!! It's been 7 years in the running for me and 9 for Tracie and Michelle. Phew, that's a long time. We almost weren't able to pull it off this year. It had to look different for me, but we still did it, well, sort of. I cannot tell you what this entails because it is a secret, but it is a lot of fun and I hated to cut it short. Vanessa, it's not the same without you. We miss you and look forward to being together again!!

Here are some pictures from our hike. One in which Tracie led the way and Michelle and I complained most of the time.




here's why Michelle was complaining (in case you can't see it...there's a nasty blister on her toe), as for me, I have no blister, and no excuse


Michelle I can't help but think of homemade huckleberry pie when I look at this picture,



And Tracie, heaven help me, I can't help but think of you pretending to smoke and yelling "shut up" to the unsuspecting children in the other room (imaginary of course!)



and our traditional automatic picture taken in front of the cabin, four takes later...



I love girl's weekend!!!
