The Great Girlfriends Getaway~ 2009

I just wanted to post a short blog update about my wonderful weekend.

Way back in 1987, Marie Kennedy was my room mate at U.B.C. and Martha Dubbeld was her best friend. Martha lived off campus, but was always hanging out in our room to see Marie, so we felt like she was our 5th roommate!! (Yes, there were four girls in our room!)

Well, in no time, 22 years have gone by, and while I've seen Marie several times, or visited with Martha, we have not all three been together in the same location for over 20 years.

Thanks to the wonders of facebook, we've reconnected and we began planning a reunion of sorts in Pigeon Forge. And that was what took place over this past weekend.

We laughed, we talked, we laughed, we ate, we talked, we laughed...you get the picture! It was such a great time together, solving the world's problems, and just generally catching up.

I told them that there was no way we could wait another 22 years to do this, because by then we'd be too old to even remember our names!

Thanks, Martha, for flying in from Indiana...and thanks, Marie for picking her up and driving over from North Carolina! It was super-amazing!!
