Women's Conference

I know I know. I have been horrible about blogging lately. Busy busy busy, that's all I have to say!

Well I had the awesome privilege of going to Women's Conference this year at BYU, by myself, kid-less, awesome, yeah...
It was so much fun!! I got to see BFF Megan the first day I got there! All I can say, is she is my girl. We were definitely destined to meet the small amount of time she lived in ABQ. I wish she lived by me so bad! We had a blast together, and I miss her mucho.

(Not the best pic- stole from her blog)

I went to Women's Conference with madre and my 2 sister-in-laws Sherri and Michelle. It was SOOO much fun, and I learned so much, and I loved hearing the speakers, and I loved the amazing music, and there were no kids, and my bum hurt a little from sitting all day, and we stayed up late talking, and we didn't have to cook, uh-huh. awwww yeah, all except the bum thing.
Pretty sure I'll go again next year.

Me and my madre

This is what I like to call "all the crazy ladies." It is hilarious to see all these ladies without kids around- they turn into teenagers.

Love these girls
