Over the weekend I got to go on a Girls' Get Away in the Phoenix area. The girls included: my mom, my two sisters, my three sisters-in-law, and myself. It was SO FUN!
People got met up at various parts of the day to do lots of fun stuff. I arrived in time for dinner at Carrabba's, one of my faves. Let me just say Pollo Rosa Maria with garlic mashed potatoes and a Caesar salad. YUM!
We stayed for free at the Westin, thanks to my brother-in-law. We were all in one room; some in beds and some on the floor on air mattresses. I liked staying in one room. Some conked right out while some of us stayed up late talking and laughing.
One of the best parts of the weekend for me was a slow, leisurely Saturday morning. My sister, Jennifer, was SUPER nice and painted my toe nails for me since it's nigh unto impossible for me to get down there these days. She even massaged my legs and feet with lotion. She offered to do it. It was her idea. Talk about a thoughtful sister! I finally agreed and it felt so nice. I've been admiring my pretty toes ever since.
We shopped for most of the afternoon at some outlets. We would shop all day, every day if we could. We live for good sales and found tons of stuff. I like this picture of my sisters, my mom, and me. They are great! Often strangers ask if we are triplets. And they also think my sisters-in-law are actual sisters. I guess we all look pretty similar.
Here's all our loot that filled up the back of my mom's car. We did well to say the least. After shopping we went to eat at the White Chocolate Grill. Mmmmmm.

A big thanks goes to all the hubbies who stayed behind with kiddos. We had a great time being together and having a little time away from the daily grind. Besides Danny, of course, these are the people I love spending time with most. I can't wait till next year!
