SHSU Girls Weekend
What do you get when you mix 5 girls, beautiful weather, and a beach house? A great weekend out of town! Four of my great grad school friends and I headed out Friday afternoon for a weekend of fun and sun on Galveston Island. The weekend was full of laughter, memories and relaxation. We rented a beautiful beach house; I think it might have been in Coastal Living magazine! Each night we enjoyed eating out in Galveston and had a great time lying out on the beach Saturday afternoon. The love bugs were out in full force but the swarming didn’t stop us from claiming lounge chairs and working on our tans. It was such a treat to get to relax and do nothing. Some highlights of the trip were: reliving the 80s through the Pac-Man video game, Jenn almost hitting a man while driving home Saturday night, daring Trish to steal a shrimp which should have resulted in some skinny dipping, and rescuing the next door neighbors from their balcony lockout by throwing knives at them! Sounds like quite a weekend huh? I am so thankful for the friendships I made with these girls. I know that my school experience wouldn’t have been half as much fun without them! I look forward to the trip again next year! Until then.
