baby got back

 put 7 amazing friends on a tropical island to celebrate one of us getting married and what do you get? a week of pure bliss, unforgettable moments, stomach aching laughs, shopping until our feet ache, the cheapest of cheapest beauty treatments a girl could ask for.... the list could go on and on....

it was what all of us needed in different ways, escaping the everyday grind, first holiday without husbands and children (they were missed everyday by those this relates to), catching up after years of absence and we all made the most of it. 

the primary reason for this break was our friends wedding which was perfect. PERFECT. so much love, and we all found out they are now expecting identical twins. lets just say with this group of amazing women we shed a few (lots of) tears!!!!  the quote of that day was "here's to never being lonely again" ahhhh! 

i will post a photo diary soon but i just wanted you all to know i'm back!! 

in my case for this holiday it was 6

1 large vine ripened tomato

1/2 red onion
