The last weekend in September some of my favorite girlfriends and I headed down to Darly's family's ranch house in Madison County, FL. We all became friends in college but through the many bachelorette weekends, weddings, and other gatherings we have become even closer over the years. A weekend with these girls is good for the soul and full of lots of laughter!
It was so fun to get away and relax for the weekend - wear flannel, ride around the ranch on the ranger, play games, make fun drinks, make yummy meals together...Usually I come away from our weekends together with a few theme songs that remind me of the weekend - well the music that defines this weekend consists of an absurd humming noise from Casey trying to get us to guess what song she was humming, haha!
Amanda was planning to get together with us that weekend but came down with a stomach bug just the day before we were supposed to leave...aka she was pregnant! She called me earlier that week to tell me and of course I was thrilled for her but I had to keep it a dang secret all weekend! And of course Ashley and Lauren's first question to me was "Is Amanda pregnant?!" I think I played it off pretty well if I say so myself :) Sorry ladies!
A little side story - Lauren has had a couple turns of bad luck on prior trips...on Ashley's bachelorette trip her SUV started smoking and we had to rent a mini van, and on Casey's bachelorette trip she got pulled over for a speeding ticket. Well this trip was no different - she and Ashley had parked her car about 30 minutes before I met up with them to carpool down to the ranch, then when we were loading up my stuff we noticed that her hand gun, Louis bag, and Ashley's GPS had been stolen out of Lauren's car :( We had to wait 3 hours on a police officer to arrive, and that only happened because Lauren chased him down in the rain! So our trip was a little delayed but Casey and Darly were waiting at the ranch with a delicious meal of taquitos and guacamole. We joked that we were glad to be starving to eat their cooking - but we had to admit it was pretty good! :)

| He did the cool finger print stuff but couldn't get any prints |
 |
| We were relieved they didn't steal any booze though :) |
I'll let the pictures tell the rest :)
