What a BLAST!

I had a girls weekend away this last weekend. First, let me set your minds at ease by telling you, if you were wondering, I AM alive. I get so stressed out to leave my family, I'm sure I'm going to die. But I made it back.

I also found (for your reading enjoyment) the quick capsulation of our escape last year! Kind of fun to relive the party from last year!

It was SUCH a great retreat! I flew alone, but landed at the same time as Crysty & Lisa. Crysty brought Amy, I brought Coby, Lisa brought a burp rag. We met in the terminal and went down to baggage claim. We were first met at the airport by Vic & Shayla. Oh my GOSH, was that the funniest sight to see...

MOST of our friends were able to make it, they came from Utah, Texas, California and Idaho. We got a big group photo of the majority of us - there were still 5 or so that were coming and going and didn't happen to be there when we shot the pictures. That's Ana & Me in the back picking the long-horn nose...empty...go figure.

I learned how to make jewelry, play human scrabble, and the funnest game in the world, Curses! It was a great get-away, it needed to have more sleep scheduled into it, because here it is Tuesday and I still feel like I'm at least 12 hours behind on my sleep!

OH - and look! We did a photo-shoot with Amy & Coby, Kris took the pictures! I saw them and needed to squeeze those babies again! Great job, Kris!


I actually took pictures of the jewelry I made, but for whatever reason, my camera card has decided to crash - so I anticipate spending the next several hours trying to recover the other pictures I took! DRATS! Anyone else have that problem with xD cards?

I want him to see what its like to be alone all weekend changing 3 year old poopy diapers all weekend. And I may make him where a pregnancy suit the entire time I am gone too!

Oh Heidi I am so jealous...It looks like a blast. I am glad you are back here and all is well. Those little babies are the cutest. Sorry about your card, I was told in one of my classes that everytime you download your pictures onto your computer when you put it back in your camera you need to reformat it. That is suppose to help your card not to crash.

Some day I am going to be brave enough to leave my kids without thinking they will die or get spinal meningitis while I'm gone. Until then (which will probably be never) no vacationing for me. It looks like you had a great time and you didn't die!!!!
