What happens when two lifelong best friends hit the highway to celebrate the big 4-0? A few bumps in the road, some unexpected lane changes, and a couple of hairpin turns to reach the perfect destination.
Bridgett Thompson hasn't left her children for more than a few hours since she gave birth thirteen years ago, and traded a job for a baby and suits for sweats. Three kids and a zillion dollars in baby-butt cream later, her best friend, Doreen, asks her to celebrate the 'biggie birthday' with a long weekend in Canada. Bridgette is convinced her family would never survive without her. Plus, her workaholic husband would never allow it. Not that he is ever around to discuss it anyway.
After too many glasses of wine, Bridgette agrees to the girl trip. Despite her lack of a vacation-suitable wardrobe or her brain-swelling worrying, she hits the road ready to relax and unwind. But Doreen has a few extra stops in mind along the way, and none of them are anywhere close to Canada. The more trouble the girls get into, the more Bridgette begins to see the reality of what she left behind and accepts her fate to rediscover who she was before life became stale Cheerios and biodegradable diapers.
