Time Out For Women 2008

This past weekend I was able to attend Time Out for Women. This year we went to Las Vegas for the 2 day confrence. I went with Carolee, Kathy, Devanie, and Suzie Stout. We left on Thursday morning and drove to Las Vegas where we were ready for spiritual uplift and fun with the girls. The drive went pretty quickly and we were ready to walk around by the time we arrived. We headed to California Pizza Kitchen for dinner, one of mine and Kathy's favorites. Dinner was wonderful and then we split up to walk the strip and look at all the funny things in Vegas. Kathy and I had a blast taking silly pictures of us doing weird and crazy things, and in Vegas there are so many weird people that we just blended in. We headed back to CPK for desert which was very delicious, but way to rich. We were able to get tickets to LOVE. It is a show that uses all Beatles music. The show was very good, strange at some parts, but that is to be expected because it is done by the same people that do "O"
Friday we attended the first part of the confrence. It was a little boring, but I was hopeful that the evening part would be better and it was. We had a good speaker and great musical presentations by Hilary Weeks, and a band from Nashville that has done a CD about Joseph Smith and the Pioneers. The music was very good and everyone should get the CD's.
Friday night Kathy, Devanie, and I went dancing. We had such a fun time together and I will remember it forever. Thanks for a fun night girls :)
Saturdays confrence was very good we had great speakers that told us about prayer, relationships with family, God, and friends, and many other things that have escaped me now. The music was wonderful and the company was great.
Saturday night we went to the Luxor to open pearls and have a great dinner. Then Kathy and I walked the strip to Ceasars Palace to the Cheese Cake Factory to get yummy desert while Suzie and Devanie checked out the CocaCola and M&M store.
Sunday we headed back to reality. The car ride was ok we listened to music from the confrence and country and mainstream music on XM radio. The last hour I was very ready to be out of the car. Aaron met me in the garage with a big smile and a hug and kiss waiting. My little guy is teething big time and has a crazy awful diaper rash. Poor little guy. All in all the trip was fun and the break from life was very needed. Thanks for a wonderful weekend Girls!!!

Sounds like it was alot of fun!
I hope Ethan's bum gets better, that's always so sad :(
I use the butt paste stuff, otherwise Alex had a really bad one a couple of weeks ago and I wiped with wet paper towels and then used bag balm. That really helped.
