I was lucky enough to attend Women's Conference this year with my Mom and one of her sisters. All I can really say is "WOW!" and that is an understatement. I was so grateful to my husband for taking on the kids while I was able to be uplifted and strengthened. It was just what I needed.
So please enjoy my photo tour of Women's conference. Seriously so cool.This was the first class we went to. It was in the ballroom and seriously I was blown away by the sheer amount of women! It was staggering.
Some of the great sites on the Y campus. I'll forever be an Aggie girl but it was still nice to enjoy the BYU Campus.
Ummm do you see what I mean. That for the most part are all women....... like over 20,000!
You might need to enlarge this one but Elder Perry was the closing speaker and he was so inspiring. But there where more "Big Wig" people there I labeled those who I could remember.
Sister Beck was also there and she has given me my new motto as a mother "raising superior daughters"Speaking of raising superior's my mother in law attends Women's Conference Every year with some friends so I was able to crash her dorm and we discovered that our similar taste goes beyond her son. We both bought the same bag while we were there at different times.
We ended the day at Maglebee's and one of my favorite cousins and his amazing wife were able to meet us before they ventured out into the real world. Chace and Rivka both graduated from the Y and are on their way to conquer the world. Love these guys (you might be able to tell from my smile. ;)
When I got back I was attacked by my children and was greeted with this frame by frame doggy pile. They had a great time with Daddy he spoiled them by letting them stay up late and watched a movie with popcorn. He obviously taught Will how to read Spiderwick and I came back to some seriously happy children.
My mom bought the girls these super cute purses and they were so excited to model them for the camera. I swore I would never dress my kids in matching shirts but I couldn't help it with these adorable little outfits.
I couldn't help but keep shooting the kids were in such a cute mood and I had to capture these. I thought Abby just looked too adorable for words.Seriously So cute!
Lizzie wanted in on the action as well.Abby was more than happy to share the frames......
I'm so glad I was able to go and spend some quality time with my Mom. It's rare that we get to spend time together without at least one of my kids. I love my Mom so much and have truly been shaped by her love and guiding example. I'm pretty sure she's the best Mom in the entire world and I'm so glad to have her as my mom. I LOVE YOU MORE THAN WORDS MOM!

That makes me cry! I miss your Mom! She has always been my HERO, a true inspiration! SHE HAS MADE A DIFFERENCE IN MY LIFE! Who I am now is because of her powerful testimony and knowlege of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Because she planted in me the desire to live by her example. I'm honored that she calls me her Sister in the gospel, her friend. How lucky you are to have her as your MOM! You have so many of her great qualities. YOUR A GREAT MOM AS WELL!
