Pics don't do it justice! HUNTINGTON BEACH- SURF CITY!

GNO with my besties...such a suprise that I thought I was going to Cali on my own to run Surf City Marathon, which I'd signed up for many months ago, when Brette said she'd go with me a few weeks before, and same with Bree and same with Nat....and then, what do you know? We are all off together on one of the greatest trips I could ever imagine:

First, we had to secure Bree on our flight- way to go Breezy! no panic attacks, nothin'! You'd think her mom was a flight attendant or somethin? She must have some tips. We had a bit of a "stalker" at the airport, which we will always remember, right girls? We all took random pics, so I only captures a few of the many memories but off straight to Disneyland! These girls are true Disney fans. I loved it this time around having hardly any waiting time onto the rides. SO DANG FUN! We of course missed our kids and hubbies back home, but having a bunch of girls isn't a bad deal!



Bree and Brette swore Disney's cotton candy is the best! I think everything just tastes better when it's super expensive!




I couldn't believe how uncrowded it was! We walked onto the rides. I haven't had that experience before. Next time, I will know how to plan better when I take the fam!


Bree hadn't been for many years-


The beach across from our hotel...Huntington where the race started and ended...how convenient and amazing! The weather was unreal. I could move here...really! Come on, Chad! Let's do it!


We had some beach time, biking time, amazing food, and most memorable moment for me is coming up on our bikes:




I really feel so blessed to have such great, supportive, kind, fun, amazing friends! I love you all. And, ditto to my kids and husband, who I did miss and am a better mom when I come home rested (and with gifts)....never know what life will bring, so better live it


And enjoy the time we have together! Here is my favortie memory: Bree driving us around in this Surrey singing, and almost killing us while singing, "Beach Boys"...Crazy jogger along the way! We had some great laughs...


And thanks for being there, all of you, when I finished the marathon, which ended up just being a final touch to a perfect weekend! You are all the best! Truly blessed I am!

I love you KELLI! I am so proud to call you my friend...you are amazing and so talented and I am so stinkin proud of you. You cranked out a freaking marathon with strep throat and came to the finish line ready for the pool and a bike ride! I am so glad we all got to do this...some of my best memories of "us" were made that weekend! xoxo
