i'm so excited

Tomorrow evening I am heading for the funnest weekend ever.  Amber, Laura, Tiffany and Missy four of my bestest friends in the whole world and I will be meeting together in Arizona.  I can't wait.  I have been friends with these girls my whole entire life.  They are sisters to me.  I don't know how I am supposed to sleep tonight with all of the excitement.  

All week I have been working on putting together some music that defines all of our years spent together.  Because every girls trip deserves it's own soundtrack.  Just tonight I listened to all that songs I put together...and I am not kidding you I felt like I was going to puke.  The songs on this CD range from songs we used to look forward to at church dances...songs we used to listen to in the dark with the base pumped all the way up, as we dreamed about boys we loved....songs we used to get down to (and I mean really get down).   These girls almost got Cortney and I evicted while we were on our honeymoon because they were making up dance routines in our apartment while we were gone with the music LOUD.  When we got home from our 2 week vacation there was an eviction notice on the door.  Anyways that is besides the point. Pretty much my whole adolescence summed up in an 80 minute CD.  It is awesome.  I can't wait to play it with them around...it will be so nostalgic.  

When Amber and I went away to college in Rexburg we were sad to be away from Tiffany,  Missy and Laura (They were all in Utah)...but I swear we saw them every weekend.  Those were great times.  Then in 1999 three of us got married and we haven't spent a night with all 5 of us together since.  In fact I think the last time the 5 of us spent the night together was on the night before my wedding.  We truly love each other and I can't believe it has taken 10 years (and 14 kids) for us to get back together.  

I wish I had some great pictures but my storage room is a mess and it would take me a couple of hours to get to them.  maybe when I get back.

Now I know that I really only got to be a part of the "club" for not even a year- but I can already hear a few of the songs that must be on that cd running through my head.
I hope you all have so much fun. AND YES, post the play llist. Tell everyone hello. BTW- you girls should know that I thank you every night as I pluck my eyebrows for the lessons 10 years ago!
