Girlfriends!

A group of 15-year-old girls discussed where they should
meet for dinner. Finally, it was agreed upon that they should meet at
the Dairy Queen next to the Ocean View restaurant because they only had
$6.00 between them and Jimmy Johnson, that cute boy in Social Studies lives on that street and they might see him and they can ride their bikes there.

10 years later, the group of 25 year old girlfriends
discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally, it was agreed upon
that they should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the beer was
cheap, they had free snacks, the band was good, there was no cover and
there were lots of cute guys.

10 years later, at 35 years of age, the group once again discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally, it was agreed upon
that they should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the cosmos
were good, it was right near the gym and if they go late enough, there
wouldn't be too many whiny little kids.

10 years later, at 45 years of age, the group once again
discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally, it was agreed upon
that they should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the martinis
were big, and the waiters there had tight pants and nice buns.

10 years later, at 55 years of age, the group once again
discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally it was agreed they
should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the food there was reasonable, the wine list was good, they had windows that open in case
of a hot flash, and fish is good for your cholesterol.

10 years later, at 65 years of age, the group once again
discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally it was agreed that
they should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because lighting was good
and they have an early bird special.

10 years later, at 75 years of age, the group once again discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally it was agreed that they should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because food was not too spicy, the restaurant was handicapped accessible and they even had an
elevator!

10 years later, at 85 years of age, the group once again
discussed where they should meet for dinner. Finally it was agreed that
they should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because they had never
been there before.

Ahhh, the beach trip...

The Beach Trip: the birthplace of the PACT-4
The PACT-4: 4 amazing REAL women who abondoned their families for the weekend to escape the daily stresses of life for an all-girl weekend of relaxation, talk, food, sun and fun!
What started as a, "Wouldn't it be nice if we..." turned into, "Yes! We are doing a girl's beach trip together". Even now, it seems like one of those Hallmark-y dreams we sometimes awake from that gives us an extra pep in our step for the day. I am so grateful for the experience.

So quick brief description of us:
P for Patti, cute and bubbly personality that you could bottle and sell-"P Cakes"
A for Ashley, organized housewife and aspiring comedian, make over maven-"Smash"
C for Cathy, drama queen-"Drama"
T for Tracey, creative and crafty-"Crafty-T" or "T-Wow"

It started with a beach trip

So four of us took a trip to the Beach, all with major life experiences to share. Each one of us with many gifts. It was a renewal and therapy for the soul for each of us. We laughed we cried & we talked about everything from crazy places we had sex to how to do an excel spread sheet!

Here is a brief intro to each of us-names & places have been changed to protect the innocent!

And so the PACT has begun!
