Moms Gone Wild!!

As a child, I was blessed to grow up with a sister and 5 cousins that were all close in age. We had the best times together. Sure, we argued, but we were really blessed and didn't even realize it.
Now, we are all scattered here and there. Still fairly close to each other, but with our busy lives, it seems we are all so far away.

So, a few months ago, we all got together and decided to take a Cousin's Road Trip/ Reunion. We eventually decided to go to Memphis for the night. My cousin Deanna lives there and offered to house us all for the night.

We all hopped in my sister's truck and the fun began!
Here are four of us girls. L-R: Kay, Magin, Amber, and Mandi


Then we met up with Deanna for Dinner at Osaka's. OMG! This place has the greatest sushi!
 L-R: Deanna, Kay, Chasity, and Christy
L-R: Amber, Me, and Magin


After that, we went back to Deanna's and talked for hours. It's amazing how time has changed us all and has really changed the conversations between us!lol

 Here are sisters, Amber and Magin..
 Deanna checking her Facebook! lol
 Amber, Chas, and Christy- they are all the same age and always paired up!
 Kay, Me, Deanna, and Magin- same story. Kay and I are close in age, Magin and Dee are the same age..


That nite, we had tons of fun. A certain cousin, who will remain nameless, warned us all that she would punch the first one to snore right in the face. Keep in mind that there were 6 of us in the living room and Dee and Caleb were in their little room/cubby. Aria, their baby, was asleep in her room, so we needed to be as quiet as possible. Anyhoo, the threatening cousin passed out in like 2 minutes, then started snoring SO LOUD..then she started grinding her teeth! OMG! It ws something else, I tell ya! I think we all passed out before 2 am...

The next morning, Deanna and Caleb fixed us a delicious breakfast. And I can't forget the fresh ground Starbucks coffee! We then grabbed our showers and hit the road. We did a little shopping, then had lunch at Huey's. After that, it was time to say goodbye to Dee. We stopped by a few more stores, then hit GiGi's Cupcakes.


The weekend was wonderful! I just wish we would have had more time together. We reminisced a lot and we made tons of new memories. I will soon start planning our next getaway!
