Women's Conference Provo, Utah!!

I talked my daughters and daughter-in-law into coming to Provo, Utah for the 2010 Women's Conference. What wonderful husbands they all have who supported them and took over "mom duties" while they were gone. (Jamie's husband even loaded up and moved their apartment into a new home they are renting while she was gone!)
After picking up everyone at the SLC Airport, (thanks to Michelle our Southwest Airllines new best friend...), we drove to the Salt Lake Humanitarian Center and was greeted by our good friend Danny. He took us on a tour around the center and shared with us so many interesting facts about the great work the Humanitarian Center is involved in. He is the best!
Tons of clothing, shoes, etc. are donated and sent around the world to help aliviate poverty and help in natural disasters.
After our tour we went into an area where a quilt was set up and we were able to complete the yarn work!
My "over the top" visiting teacher came by with these awesome binders and matching pens for each one of us to use to take notes with!
Our night out at P F Changs! Yum..yum.. too much fun! The first "girl" in this picture is my best friend "Kelly" who joined us in our dorm at BYU! We've been friends since kindie-garten! She is Danny's wife and is a wonderful person and friend. My girls had so much fun getting re-aquainted with her!
Boogie down at the concert!!
Here we are together at one of the fantastic talks at the Wilkenson Center!
Kelly and Amanda! We went to the "Service Room" and all worked on stitching around the edge of a fleece blanket to be sent to the "Humanitarian Center!" Everyone needs a blankie!
Finally a break from snow and rain... once it was snowing while the sun was shining!
Me and my girls.... Michelle, Jamie (7 months preg with a new grandson), and Angela. I love them each so much. I will cherish our time together for a long time to come!

I am so jealous! It looks like you had such an incredible time with your girls! Maybe next time I could be a pseudo daughter since I can't get my mom and sister to leave a 50 mile radius of their homes!!!
