Heading to Shangri-La

I'm leaving early this morning on a flight to Salt Lake City to meet up with the dearest of friends.
We are heading to Rae Ann's (Cutie Pinwheel) cabin for an idyllic week in Star Valley, Wyoming.

It's been over a year since I've spent girlfriend time with these wonderful ladies, and I've been counting the hours and minutes in anticipation of our reunion.

Rae Ann's cabin is set on a pristine mountainside, and is as close to my vision of Shangri-La as I ever hope to experience in this life.

Because it's winter, the cabin will look more like this when we arrive.

We each bring our machines, cook the most amazing food, snuggle under quilts with good books, and will have an entire 7 days of bliss.
The cabin does not have Internet, but I will bring my lap top and see if my phone will have enough connection to let me post.
If you do not hear from me for a few days, know I am happy, happy, happy.

The only sad part of the trip is when we found out a few days ago that our dear friend Lori (Bee In My Bonnet) will not be able to join us :(
We had all kinds of plans where I was going to help her sew product with Millie's Closet for upcoming Market.
But, she will be busy with last minute meetings with Riley Blake for the release of her newest fabric line.
Oh, the price of being famous.
We will miss you Lori, and it just won't be the same with out your delightful laugh.
I'll try and have enough fun for the both of us.
