Throwback Thursday




The date: Labor Day weekend, 1994 (or maybe 1993)
The place: Cancun, Mexico
The mood: Nine girls having the time of our lives. Three of them were engaged so I suppose this was sort of like a Bachelorette Party of sorts. These are the same girls that are part of our annual Girls Weekends. A few are missing because they were already married or about to get married. It was such a fun trip. One of our friends (Linda) was a travel agent at the time so she made sure we had great accomodations. We laughed and laid out by the pool or on the beach and laughed some more.

While we were laying out poolside (with no sunscreen I am sure) the Mexican band there tried to teach us a little song with hand motions called the "Macarena". It had not "caught on" in the states yet. We thought it was a little goofy. Little did we know, we were on the cutting edge of dance history!!

Too bad you weren't on the cutting edge of fashion, too! Ha, ha, JK!

I love the 90s. Great pics! Looks like a great group of friends.

Yes, there was alot of denim, highwaisted shorts, big belts, big earrings and big hair going on during that trip - and the entire decade really! We did live in Texas where everything is bigger...
