Me, my husband and 15 friends vacationed in St. George Island, Florida, for a week. Here is what I learned:
Making time for life-long best friends is a non-negotiable
I like being called Aunt Dawn
Kids really do amazing things. Give 6 kids an ipad with imovie and they’ll rock your world
I like to be a little tan. Me and my BFF always say “tan flab looks better than white flab”. It’s true (in my case)!!! I personally tested the theory
Raw Oysters, Grouper and Gulf Shrimp are the new Holy Trinity
Dance parties and foosball championships are fun
Sleeping in until 11am everyday has its upside (a big one).
Read the whole post over at Dawn.H.Burke (an FOT contributor blog).
