Smith Girls Retreat 2011

Smith Girls Trip 2011

After weeks of planning and waiting for the date to arrive, we all headed off to Neola to have a girls weekend away at Allison's. We had various activities planned, lots of good food to make and eat, and lots of visiting and fun to do!

While the majority of the crowd was over 18, we allowed these little ones since they were dependent on their mommies! Max provided the only male supervision we had!

First up was making our cute washer necklaces. Susan was the pro at teaching us this craft and we enjoyed picking our papers and washers and making beautiful necklaces out of them.

After a delicious breakfast of waffles with strawberry sauce and whipped cream, some of us headed of to Vernal to attend the temple. Others stayed behind with babies and moral support. We all met up in Vernal for lunch at a Mexican place. More food and conversation!

After lunch we headed back to Alli's and continued with crafts. We produced lots of hairbows and headbands. We ate Lisa's yummy chicken ranch and bacon sandwiches for dinner and had the "famous" chocolate torte to top it off. More visiting, some Zumba lessons, a movie, more food and a ton of fun!

The trip ended with all of us attending church with Allison and packing up, cleaning up, and driving home. We all agreed it was a wonderful trip and we're planning on making it an annual event! What a fun family we've got!
