Time Out for Women 2011

How blessed I am to have these amazing women in my life. We decided to spend the weekend together at "Time Out for Women". This is a conference just for women, to help them understand their full potential and to help the "Become" all that they aspire to be. A better wife, or mother, friend, or person. It was very motivational and something that I really needed to help me focus on me. Sometimes as a wife and mother, the me for all of us gets pushed to the end of the line. I have always believed that if we don't take care of the "me", our lamps can't be full and we can't take care of those around us. After this weekend, my lamp was full and I know I can be a better wife, mother, friend, and ME!
We rode the Trax from Sandy to SLC. When we would get close to a stop, Gege would do this funny look and point her finger. This became the joke of the weekend. We had many laughs, some even to the point of crying. So much fun!
We ate at the Blue Lemon in Salt Lake for lunch. We were standing in line and 2 sister missionaries were behind us. We weren't ready to order, so we let them go ahead. I was prompted to pay for their lunch, so we gathered all our cash and did just that. It was an amazing part of my day. Of course, I was emotional, but whats new. It just made me realize how important it was for me to serve these two missionaries, because I can only hope that someone in Costa Rica is serving my missionary son too!
We will definitely go to "Time Out for Women" again! It was well worth it.
Thought this was an amazing picture! The Tabernacle, Assembly Hall, Temple and Church Office Building all in one shot! The Church is truly amazing!
