Kacin: "So, Mom, did they put you in time out?"

It was a memorable weekend in Portland, OR
with a group of awesome ladies.

Patrea made sure that we each walked away
with a nickname.

Meet
Ice Cube . . .

Scout (always prepared) . . .

Sparkles! . . .

Fireball . . .

CC (Canadian Chocolate) . . .

Stretch . . .

Peace Corps Barbie . . .

The Navigator . . .

and the Protecter . . .

We checked in at a stellar hotel--
the kind of hotel that we should've checked the reviews on
and that we had to check for bed bugs
and that smelled like urine
with burn holes in sheets
and where no one wanted to sit down or touch anything.
I hope with all the precautions taken, like Febreze,
no one caught any diseases.

We walked the streets of Portland
and dined out.

 We listened to some beautiful music
and good speakers.

 

We danced, chatted, and laughed all weekend.

 

Basically, we were The Show.

I loved the weekend and I just love these ladies.
