Sisters Plus Trip!

What a wonderful long weekend we had in Arizona. We planned it back in September at Michelle's wedding. Joy said that Wicked was coming to Phoenix and that we should have a sisters weekend and go to it. We were all for it.

We flew in Thursday afternoon, and left Tuesday morn. It was amazing.

Rhonda and Anny flew in from Salt Lake City. Christine (sister-in-law) and Aubrey (her daughter) flew in from Boise earlier that week to visit her sister then picked me up at the airport to drive over to Kass's. Jenna was supposed to come, but had to work at the last minute. Stinker.

We started Friday off with a great hike in the cactus filled mountains near Joy and Kass's homes.

We then had a little spa party from one of Joy's friends to get ready for Wicked that night. There were some great products and Christine even signed up to sell it.

We then got ready and went to a yummy dinner at The Cheesecake Factory, after filling our tummies, we headed over to Tempe for Wicked. That was the most amazing play ever. I loved the story, songs, and humor in the show. I think I'm going to take my family to it this summer in Salt Lake.

Saturday we took our time getting ready, then met our Nieces at a great mexican/chinese restaurant only in Phoenix. Anny mentioned she saw it on Drive Thru/Dives/and Diners on the Food Network. Kass said Mick's cousins who live in the area have mentioned it and said it was good, so we tried it. It was very delicious food. Laura, Jessica, Aubrey, and Rachel were going to Wicked that afternoon, so had to eat and run. The rest of us did a little shopping.

Sunday we attended church, went to Tyler's grave site, then visited our other niece (Joy's daughter) Kimberly in the hospital. She had been in the hospital for about a month on bed rest, and the night before she had finally had her baby. It was such a pleasure to see this beautiful baby just down from Heavenly Father's presence. He was in Nic U, so John was kind enough to take us back one by one to see little Deegan Tyler. We then had a great dinner that mom and Kass made earlier in the week. Joy, Jerry and Jordann came over to eat, then we all went over to Joy's daughters house to have some cake for Laura and Aubrey's birthdays.

Monday we did whatever came to us. We ended up going on a little walk around the neighborhood, going to Nordstrom Rack, getting some mani/pedi's, then out to eat one last time at a Japanese Steak house. Oh how the food was great this trip. Now it is DIET time!!!

I loved spending time with my sisters, brothers-in-law, and all my nieces and nephews.

I hope we can get together again soon.
