For the longest time it has been a dream of mine to go to Education Week with all of my daughters- I used to go when they were younger and see moms with their grown-up children and think how much fun it would be to share that as a family. So by some miracle it worked out this time!! Since three of the girls are now in Utah it of course made it much easier. I flew up Monday night, Whit flew in Wednesday, and we spent Thursday and Friday enjoying classes all together and did a little bit of shopping on Saturday before we flew home. What a blessing it was to have this time- a big thanks to Lynn who sacrificed not only being alone in the office but dealing with a sick Trixie and having to give her medicine! He never once said it would be hard to deal with everything, but just how happy he was that we could go- he is absolutely the best! We learned lots of great things in lots of great classes, but the most important thing we learned more about was each other and how fun it is to be together. I of course got lots of Emma and Sopie kisses too!! So thanks girls for being willing to join me this last week- it was awesome!

I have always wanted to go to education week. I am so envious that you got to this with all your daughters- I hope someday to be able to enjoy things like this with ALL my children as well.
It was a blast! I am already missing it! PS you need to blog about trixie being sick!
That sounds really fun...Maybe next year my mom and sister will come and we can see you all there! I was excited to see a new blog from you!!!!!!!!!!!
it was so fun to be able to go all together! i want to get that ladies books now so i can get good ideas of fun stuff to do with my nieces!
What a fun trip, made more special because you were able to share it with your girls. My girls are all planning a short weekend in the Bay Area later this month. I can't wait.:)
Sounds like you all had fun at Education Week, we are going to miss you at the baby shower but I'm sure Aunt Marcia will fill you in on all the details! Have fun at the UCLA game!
Susan, I just want to sit down and cry. I envy you so much. I would love to share Ed week and have always dreamed of going. It will probably not happen for me for 10 years though because I have school during the ed week. So sad. How I would love experiencing this with you and your girls and Michele. Oh maybe some day....
Thank you for commenting on my blog, sorry it took so much time to visit yours. I have always wanted a little girl dog and would call her Trixie! That is so funny!
I was really confused to see a comment from "Diane" that talked about her girls planning a weekend in the Bay Area. I thought I was missing something, but I clicked on the name and realized that it wasn't my mom...you have ANOTHER Diane! Funny....
Oh my gosh...I've planned a trip to the bay area with my girls and I'm not aware of it!! That's a wierd feeling! I want you to know how happy it makes me to see you with your girls. You are all so special to me and I truly love each and every one of you. Thanks for being such good friends. We will have to plan to meet up next year...I'd love it!
