4TH TA TAS SISTERHOOD REUNION IN VEGAS!!!!!
Comments

Piano Bar? Do I have to sing?
C'Mon ladies, I'm on the fence. Tell me how much fun we'll have so I decide to go for sure.
-
SheChirple - you can sing off key and nobody would ever know! Seriously we all have way too much to drink - we sing at the top of our voices and we dance all night long. The next day your legs are going to be so darn tired from standing up and dancing for 5-6 hours straight!
OMG - you are on the fence? You have to trust us -this is one party that you are not going to want to miss and after going the first time - you will be going every year thereafter! Nothing will stop you!
-
the Piano Bar night is the highlight of this trip....with the exception of meet and greet night when we all see each other again and meet all the new ones for the first time!!!!
-
Sounds like a great get-together! Wish we could come too
-
I can't wait to see all of ya'll again and meet the newbies this year.
We have a lot of fresh meat to cook!

-
For the Newbies and the "On the fence'abies" - just wanted to say that since this is the 4th trip (and many ladies have been on all 4 trips - some for 3 and some for 2)... we have become very fast friends. After you make the first trip and meet everyone and start to connect you will really be part of the TATA Sisterhood. We are kind of quite on this site right now but it will heat up as we get closer to the trip.
I'm kind of shy and reserved, but I LOVE my sisters and have had so much fun on these trips with them. Not a Vegas fan really but I do love my music and dancing and we do lots of that! Some of us drink, and some do not. Some of us are foodies and love to eat and others save their money for other things. Some shop, some gamble, some sun by the pool. It does not matter what floats your boat - just be willing to try a few things with fellow sisters and I can guarantee you will be back next year for more. Many of us feel that this connection we have made is so special and sweet. We have fought the same beast. We are vets. We celebrate our lives. We live in the moment. And we are here to hold each other up. If you are ready to celebrate then this is the crowd for you!
-
DITTO on what Gretchen said. I have been only 1 time but feel like I have known these ladies all my life. And yes it is quiet here right now but just wait...there will be lots of chatting going on when the planning begins. It has helped having our very own private Facebook page. We keep up with each other on a daily basis (almost)....cannot wait.
-
Double ditto!

-
Triple Ditto!!! I can't wait either!! I couldn't go last year and I'm Jonesin' for the girls!!
Also, I'm bringing my "stuff" so whoever needs it, can have it if you know what I mean..
-
This will be my fourth year! I went to my last radiation appointment - straight to the airport and straight to Vegas back in 2009. I wouldn't miss this for the world. Literally I would have to be in the hospital hooked up to a breathing machine to miss this annual trip.
Journey said it so well......we were all new meeting each other and yet we have developed a beautiful friendship with one another ever since.
If you are new - don't hesitate - don't even think for a moment that you will feel left out. Us professionals work hard to make the newbies feel welcome, taking ya'll under our wings and making sure you are apprised of everything going on so that you can pick and choose what you want to do during the downtime which really isn't a bunch of time because we have so many group activities planned.
I hope some of the newbies from last year will chime in and get some of you gals OFF THAT DARN FENCE!
-
HEY VEGAS BOUND BEAUTIES!!!
IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY DONE SO PLEASE PRIVATE MESSAGE ME A LIST OF WHO IS IN YOUR ROOM. I WILL POST A LIST NEXT WEEK.
LOL JANCIE! THANKS FOR THE BUMP!!
LUV YA LADIES!!
TRACEY -
Hubby is encouraging me to go. See, I love to party, and dance, and sing and have fun. He not so much. I do like to gamble, but only a little slot machine action, maybe some craps or roulette. Oh, and my legs NEVER get tired of dancing.
I am more and more intrigued...FACECRAFTER...I don't know what your "stuff" is, but...........bring it on!
My next surgery is July 23rd and I'll be home for 3 wks. So, I'll probably bite the bullet and sign up then.
I would be happy to share a room with one friendly, fun and not crabby lady. (Sorry, my MIL just got back from a cruise where she got stuck with the most demanding, crabby, entitled princess of a senior citizen and it has made me a little nervous)
-
SheChirple - I don't think there is a crabby sista in the group! (Could be wrong but I haven't met one yet.) We are all there to have fun and celebrate life! If you decide to go just tell us here and send Tracey a PM so she can add you to the list. Hope you make it!
-
Gretchen...I got crabby when I had to sit at the Vegas airport for 13hrs because my 12:30p flight was cancelled and I had to wait for the next flight at 2am.... I was not a happy camper. LOL
I sure do hope I have a better experience this go'round....
I know some of you had bad experiences with the flights that year but I think mine was the worst one!!!
That little $50 credit they gave me for my next flight expired last year so I did not get to use it. :-(
-
Gretchen - Hope we get to go zip-lining on Fremont street!
I was a newbie last year and didn't know a soul and had the best time!!! (just sayin')
Juli
-
Zip lining!? Cool.
By crabby, I mean this lady was demanding. Get me X, bring me Y, I don't care what your policy is, I want, I said"....bitch bitch bitch. She told MIL "If you need to sleep with lights on, or watch TV that is fine". Then, when MIL got up to use the restroom in the middle of the night she screamed at her "TURN THAT F'IN LIGHT OFF, YOU WOKE ME UP". I'd have to leave. But they were on a cruise.
-

-
aaahhhh Thanks for your kind words Laura

and even the kick in the arse statement...you are sweet
We will not be exercising while in Vegas except maybe on the slots and dancing. You can eat whatever you want...the food police will not be watching

-
Juli was fresh meat last year and we broke her in good! She had the neatest pink feather boa.
I am in Florida vacationing and having a blast. Already getting a tan and not even trying.
Laura - totally forgot about Dress Barn - I went and bought a neat dress there that I can also wear in Vegas. We are in Destin and unfortunately there is a huge outlet mall here with all of the major players. Still don't feel great about going into the Michael Kors store as I know I can't afford anything there. I guess one day if I actually put on a face I could do it.
It is only a short time and we will be getting together!
-
Linda! You DID have the return trip home from hell story! I had forgotten about that. Hopefully that will never be repeated!
Juli - YES we have a zipline date if you are up to it! You, Packer and Sandysunshine (if they still want to)....everyone is welcome! This is down at Freemont when we make that jaunt.
Ladies, I just returned from Vegas. I was there 2 short days for a business trip but managed to hang out at a couple of our stomping grounds. It was so much fun to think that in just a few short months I would be there again having a LOT more fun with my tata sistas!
Oh, just wanted to say that I'm sooo glad the food police will not be watching (or at least commenting) while we are there. Vegas is simply not the place to try and diet. Now, to loose those 3 lbs I managed to put on while at the trade show. Jeez...
-
OMG I just watched the zip line videos on youtube!! I have GOT to do THAT!
-
The zipline in Vegas...downtown...is a little zipline....not scary. Great for zipline virgins!
-
Bump
-
I just saw this thread and the crazy thing is I am actually going to be in vegas that weekend. How do I find out how to meet up with you fabulous ladies?
-
Keep watching this thread. All the info on where, when, etc. will be here.
