Palm Springs!

I was so very lucky to spend last weekend with seven girlfriends in Palm Springs. Kendall was so gracious to organize the weekend and we had such a great time, we are already planning next years' trip! We rented a very cool house, cooked and ate great food, lounged in the sunshine, played cards, chatted and chatted, swam, ate pummelos fresh off the tree in our backyard, mixed some yummy drinks with limes we picked, went for a hike, went out to a couple great meals (including an In-N-Out Burger), did each others' hair, painted each others' nails, walked to Starbucks, checked out a local CrossFit competition, shopped at Lululemon and just enjoyed each other. It was fabulous!

First signs of sunshine on the plane ride to Palm Springs!

Pool time! And the Pummelo, orange and lime trees in the backyard.

We had fun cooking together and it wasn't much work with seven of us.

Gotta have some handstands at the end of a hike with a group of CrossFitters, right?
 

  
And pyramids!

Love this one as it show us laughing and laughing which we did a lot of all weekend!
