Time out for Women!

This weekend I had the opportunity to head to Seattle for a conference called "Time Out for Women". We got to listen to some amazing speakers and listen to magnificent music. It started Friday night at 6:30. So we all headed up to Seattle checked into and had to snag some dinner. We ate at a place called Rock Bottom and I enjoyed some yummy Fish Tacos.


Here are my friends I got to spend the weekend with.  They were a lot of fun.  

Heading to the conference.  It was such a beautiful night Friday.

Sarah Arnold, Dennese Mahony and me.

After playing games half of the ladies parted to the other hotel room.  Unfortunately I left my camera in the the game hotel room.  The ladies in that room had a little fun with my camera.

Nice foot shot Dennese

Looks very therapeutic Dennese
Prego belly!!

Not quite sure what's going on here. 


We woke up Saturday morning and headed back to the Conference.

Here is Hilary Weeks, she is a wonderful singer and also spoke to us with a lot of inspiring things to share.

We found Sister Kirkwood from my ward at the Conference.  She is so cute.

Time for lunch.  It was so nasty outside, windy and rainy.

I definitely missed something funny.

Brandi and I, I love Brandi.  Sorry about the hair it was so windy.

We stopped at this really cute sandwich shop and enjoyed some yummy food.  That corn chowder soup was fabulous.

On the way back from lunch we got to watch the first part of the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Seattle.


Hey it's a Back to the Future remake




This is a dedication to Jamee, Dennese's husband.  He is Irish and fireman.  



Brandi, me, my double chin, Dennese, and Sarah!!  Love these ladies

The Benaroya Symphony Hall, this was where Time Out was located.

It was so much fun to get away from work and kids to be able to spend sometime with some REALLY great women.  These ladies are such an inspiration to me and I just love them to death.  Thank you ladies for letting me be in your lives.
