This beach trip with the girls were the "jumper cables" I needed to restart my battery! It was perfect..................Perfect weather, perfect friends, perfect place! 
Andee and her husband have a condo in Destin, Florida............It's right on a canal and a short walk to the beach...........lots of pools, tennis, puttin green and boats & fishin.......Perfect for kids......If we had brought them..........but we did not! We just brought ourselves.........And as always, our first night there starts with dinner at Dewey Destins.........A shack that has great food and very cold beer...........YUMMY!
Tara, Robin, Andee, Christi, Liz and myself have been friends since college. Although we are spread all around (And I was NOT referring to our butts!) we reconnect every year just like college was yesterday!!
Weather was just beautiful!! And only a few times did we laugh at the other parents sitting in sand making sandcastles and smearing sunscreen all over very quick toddlers.........Because those trips are great, too. Actually, those trips are made really great by having these "kid free" trips as well!! I firmly believe you need the balance.............especially to really appreciate life!
The Donut hole is a must.........not really just for breakfast.........They have the best keylime pie! YUMMY!!
I figured I should include myself in a bathing suit shot.......I mean really, who knows what next year will look like, right??? I kid, I kid...............
So here we are, all lined in our sorority pose!!
Saturday night we went to The Boathouse! Unfortunately, these pics just don't show the charm! You know, if you call bras and panties stapled to the ceilings CHARMING.........Which we did!! No, we didn't staple OURS to the ceiling, we just thought it was CHARMING...........many beers, shots and no dinner later!!
Oh to be young again...........We certainly tried............As will the hubby's text messages attest to! It really was a wonderful weekend with really great people! And a special thanks to all those at home that held down the fort, toted kids to birthday parties, soccer parties, dance recitals, baseball games and all those other things crazy people with kids do on weekends!

Thanks for the pictures...I got robbed..but a few days was better than nothing. Can't wait until we do it again...I am thinking twice a year might not be such a bad idea.
