That's me and Ally in Palm Springs drinking our $38 pitcher of margaritas. And yes, they were worth it, if you don't include the hangover we had the next day. We realized we can't drink like we did when we were in our twenties!Here are some other things that are a little harder to do in your forties while vacationing with girlfriends:
1. You can't just "throw on a swimsuit" anymore. Ally had a waxing incident she had to deal with and my tankini top kept rolling upward, exposing the muffin top!
2. Forget about the Hawaiian Tropics dark tanning oil from our youth. We were slathered and sprayed with no less than 30 sunblock.
3. When you are in your forties it takes a lot longer to get ready.
4. Bralessness is not an option.
5. Things cost more.
6. You have more money to spend.
7. If you don't properly hydrate while you are drinking tequila, your urine will be really bright yellow and scary when you take a wiz at 3 in the morning.
8. Hangovers hurt more.
9. Hangovers last longer.
10. When you drink and laugh with girlfriends in your forties, you sometimes pee your pants a little.

I must be 40 in the body of a 31 year old.....
Having said that I would like to be permanently hooked to a pitcher of margaritas and hang with my sister for....ohhh....at least....the next 6 weeks. Life would be a lot more fun...and wet...
So glad you had a wonderful time with each other!
This post made me laugh because it pretty much describes what my best friend and I will be in our 40's! Sounds like you had a fun weekend.
I tried not to laugh too hard at the last one. Because, well, you know.....
How many margaritas does a pitcher make? I'm just doing casual research....
Can you even believe we used to use that Hawaiian Tropic dark tanning oil? AND we used those silver sheet things to magnify the intensity of THAT!
Those are wonderful points well made!! Especially the peeing in the pants one. I've been there...too many times to count.
