It's embarrassing for me to admit, but until last weekend, I have NEVER been away from my family. Well, that's not entirely true I guess, but I don't really count it because the 5 times I have been away has been in the hospital having another baby. And then it was only for 24 hours or less. No, Shawn and I have never even been away together for even a night! Pathetic I know! We just don't have anyone to watch the kids. Shawn has actually been away lots for business travel, but me, heck no! UNTIL.........last weekend. We went to my friend Wendy's parents cabin. Once I was gone, it was HEAVEN! I love my family, but I really didn't miss them! Friday to Sunday isn't too terribly long anyway............NOT LONG ENOUGH, that's for sure! The others would agree I think, (well, probably not Kayla!) Anyway, it did me good, recharged me a little, we had a lot of fun, and I just have to ask, "when can we do it again?
And for sure I have Shawn to thank for supporting me and taking GREAT care of the kids while I was gone. He is the best dad ever! He even tried to take the kids to the new Chuck E. Cheese in Layton.....voluntarily!! He gets an award for that for sure, that's one of those painful places you only agree to go because it's some small child's birthday! You never just GO...unless you're Shawn I guess!
Wendy and Penny.
Kayla... she was getting the car loaded (she was the one most anxious to get home)
Me and Penny again. Penny got all dressed up to get home to her Big Rig. (had to be there!)
And this is the beautiful new cabin of Wendy's generous parents we stayed in. Lots of laughter, girl movies, good food, and chit chat that will last me until the next time we are lucky enough to do it again!

Fun pictures. I told my mom you put this on your blog, and it made her day. She said you guys are welcome to do it whenever!!!
I agree we definately need to have a girls weekend again. Great pictures except of me. I hate having my picture taken. I'm so glad you came it wouldn't have been the same without your funny comments like "Big Rig." :)
That is so funny that you posted "the big rig" What a fun time we had and I am ready to do it again. I am ready anytime just say the word!! Your blog and hot chocolate made my Mom so happy that you are invited anytime. Maybe one of these days we can bring our family's.
