natenkellnfamily: Girls' Weekend

I started this post right after we went down to Utah, but I never finished it.

We went down to Utah to the "Bronson Tricks of the Trade." The drive down was fun, the party was fun, the hotel was fun, the drive home was fun. Pretty much a bunch of fun. Kidless fun at that.

We came up with fun ideas for Cheap Family Fun, talked and laughed, and heard lots of Bronson stories. Then we went back to the hotel and talked and laughed some more. Just as we were settling down, we had a small emergency and had to get up and take care of it, which started us having to settle down again.

In the morning (or should I say, later in the morning?) we got up and had fun in the hot tub and pool, where we encountered another small emergency trying to put down the broken shades (Let's just say you should never go anywhere with Tara without being well stocked in bandaids). Jolee was the good one of the bunch. She just checked out the exercise room. I tried to talk myself into joining her, but I didn't talk hard enough. Then we got ready, compared our overnight bags (I vote Tara's is the coolest, and the most stocked - of course I could just be jealous of her mini straighening iron) and started for home. We stopped in Layton for lunch and Pocatello for ice cream and finally made it home later Saturday evening. I'm sure our kids were missed, but not enough for us to never do it again.

Here are more pictures from the night.

The party!
