Our Cabana Boys at the Wyndham Tremont with some of the Queens

We're back from our trip and boy did we have a good time! NTTW was hilarious! The queens all agreed that there should be a warning on the ticket about going to the bathroom before the show starts to avoid wetting yourself from laughing so much!! Our faces still hurt! To see all the details about the trip, go to http://msjerre.blogspot.com/ and read July 27-29th "Gettin the Skinny!" We met Kacey Jones and represented the Berry Queens well!
