Each year the women gathered...
...to renew their spirits
...nourish their souls
...and earn their laugh lines
In 2004, a couple of women asked a couple more women to join them for a week at the beach. The place was Dauphin Island, Alabama. The only rule was women only (specially selected amazing women.) No men, no kids, no pets.
That year there were 12 of us. And so, the Dauphin Island Vacation Alliance was formed and we became the DIVA's!
As we near the end of our 12th DIVA Fest, currently there are 13 of us on Dauphin Island. Today, the oldest DIVA is 77 and the youngest is 33. Yeah, back in '04, that youngest 37 year old DIVA was ME!
We lay in the sun, walk on the beach, listen to music, dance, drink, eat and laugh. We laugh a LOT!
Just this morning, I woke up with sore ab muscles from laughing so much last night. But, mostly, we enjoy and celebrate our friendship and love.
It's an amazing week with the most fabulous women I know.

And, DIVA Fest would not be complete without singing along to the DIVA anthem:
"All I wanna do is have some fun..."
