Over the mountains and through the woods....

...to Grandma's house we went!!

We had such a great weekend in Fayetteville. We had been planning on going for quite awhile now, but something seemed to come up every single weekend. So when Sherrie asked me to come and teach a class at her stake's women conference, it was the perfect reason to make it happen. So here's the rundown of what we did...

Friday.....We started the day at the church helping Grandma decorate and prepare for the women conference on Saturday. My girls love to help decorate at the church, especially with Grandma. Cory and Hailey went to work with Grandpa to see some old friends. Later that afternoon, Grandpa picked up the girls in the salon parking lot so that Sherrie and I could spend the rest of the afternoon being pampered. We had a great time and we both came out 4 hours later (it was a beauty school so it took a little longer than normal) feeling beautiful with shorter and lighter hair. Then we met everyone at our favorite Mexican restaurant for dinner.

Saturday...Sherrie and I left real early to do last minute prep stuff before the conference started at 8:30. It was a WONDERFUL conference!!!! I love the sisters in Fayetteville. There is just something about that stake that I LOVE and miss. The stake that we are now in doesn't do women's conferences. What's up with that??!!! Anyways, during the conference Cory, Grandpa, and the girls played some baseball and then Cory spent hours trying to track down a nebulizer because Hailey was wheezing. She has had a cold for the past week, but Cory (who has had asthma since he was a baby) was starting to get worried. Later that afternoon, we had all planned on going to play putt-putt and race cars, but instead me and Sherrie took Katelund and Cloey to get started and Dad and Cory took Hailey to an urgent care. They told Cory that she was fine and that she just had a cold, but he kept asking questions and being a worried dad so they tested her for RSV...which she had. So, the rest of the weekend we spent at home playing games and having fun together while we babied our baby.

Sunday...I stayed home with Katelund and Hailey (Katelund threw up Saturday night) while everyone else went to church. We had a delicious dinner and then we played more games and ended the night with pedicures and makeovers (the girls gave Grandma a pretty scary make-over while she slept on the couch and then finally convinced Cory into letting them put make-up on him as well....of course, I HAD to join in on that. We were all laughing hysterically!!! Good times, good times.

Monday morning, Grandma and Grandpa walked to the lake with Kate and Cloey to feed the ducks and then Cory and his mom went on a bike ride together. Afterwards, we packed up and headed out on our long voyage back home.

For some strange reason, I can't get my pictures to post...but, I will have them up as soon as I figure it out.

Sorry for a sick baby. Having one is no fun but I'm glad your trip was great. You would be an AWESOME speaker to have at a conference.
