Good Times in Troy
I had the absolute delight of seeing my BFF and four other dear sisters on Saturday. I'm ashamed to say this was my first visit to my BFF's house and she moved in fourteen months ago. Ok, I admit it - I organize my sorority gatherings for a reason - I can stay close to home and still connect with the ones I adore. I'm not much of a traveler and my life is too hectic usually to find an entire day or two to devote to out of town trips. I am glad we went on Saturday!! K & K drove to my house to pick up me and my daughter, then we drove to Burleson to meet M at Taco Cabana and then we all headed to Troy. The best part of the day (besides being with my daughter and sisters) was seeing one sister after a seven year absence. G pledged A Phi after I left Commerce but she used to come to my apartments in Paris and Denton all the time w/ BFF. We used to have some great times during my newlywed years - wild parties, noisy Monopoly games!!! Good times, good times. Then she sort of faded out of the picture for awhile, only resurfacing for a short time around the time my brother got married (7 years ago) and attended the wedding w/ BFF. Then she disappeared from our lives again. Thanks to the wonders of myspace and google...BFF found her again and invited her over on Saturday. And she made it!!! It was so great to turn around and see her standing there after all these years. The six of us sat around and talked for hours (after we bought great Scentsy stuff). As a matter of fact, time flew by so quickly that we didn't leave Troy until after 9pm and had a very long ride home. Thank you K for driving us in the fog!!! It's always such a great time when any of us get together but it is especially exciting when we bring someone back into the fold and can share stories of the good ol' days. Our little group is growing as myspace and google helps us to reconnect with more sisters from Commerce. Here's to more good times, good times!!

No problem on the driving....I don't particularly like driving in the fog, but its not like you all planned it!! LOL And at least ya'll were there to help calm me down until we got through it! :) It was a great trip and I am glad our little group is expanding. I cherish the original dinner club/camp group with all my heart, but glad that we are all open enough to bring others into the inner sanctum and share the love! We have a pretty special bond. Not many women can say that they have been friends for 20 years! And just imagine... I am sure we will all be together when we are in wheelchairs and rockers! We have been there to support each other in good times and in bad. I wouldn't be the person I am today without my Phis! AOE BABY!!
I too had a wonderful time!! I have to agree with Kara, there are not many women on this earth that could say they keep in touch with friends for 20 years.
Through good times and bad, I know I can depend and trust my sisters.
Love you girls!!
