20 Years!

It is my favorite weekend of the year!
Beck comes to town for a few days. I take a day off work. We eat and talk. Pedicure is a must. Shop and maybe talk some more. The finale ...
FRIENDS CHRISTMAS PARTY
20 YEARS!
This is our twentieth year doing this party (hello Oprah!). How many girls are so lucky to have friends for that long. These are girls who know you and love you
UNCONDITIONALLY!
Taking our group picture is always an event ... and very entertaining. My abs were aching by the end. We are funny! At least Beck and I think so according to this picture.
We spend the night catching up, getting and giving advise, giggling and reminiscing. We exchange gift and have a fabulous dinner. Sleep .. not so much (I think it was almost 4 am this year. Aren't we too old for that?)
Friendships are renewed and love shared. We are reminded how lucky we are to have such great people in our lives. Here is to 20 more years!

A First

Merry Christmas to me!
I got my FIRST speeding ticket.
"Wow, you have a perfect record. Sorry to ruin that."
SO LAME!
