Hi. Remember me?

Wow. Has it really been 5 months since I posted?! Can you believe there was a time I posted daily on this ol' blog? Pretty crazy. I guess the lack in posts means 1 of 2 things. I have either been really lazy, or I have just been too busy having fun and being productive to get around to it. I would like to think it's the latter, and mostly it is, course there probably was some laziness here and there throughout the 5 months, not gonna lie.  So I guess I will just start where I last left off.  I decided to skip Valentine's.  Not the holiday, we celebrated that, I am just not posting the pics.  But if you're interested (like anyone is still reading this), I got Jon a bag of dark chocolate Dove chocolates.  He got me some of my favorites- Pepsi, gummi bears, kettle corn, etc.  Then we got all sorts of romantic and went out to dinner....with our good friends.  Yeah, we totally did a double date on V day.  It was rad.  OK, and now onto this post. 

TIME OUR FOR WOMEN.  I went.  Totally last minute.  My friend from the ward was suppose to go with her mom and sister, but they bailed at the last minute.  (They live in Vegas).  SO I stepped in and she sold the other ticket to some random chick on FB.  This was held at the conference center just down the street from our house so it was super convenient.  I had never been to one of these conferences and I loved it.  And forgive me, I am not going to remember any of these people's names as this was 5ish months ago, and I am too lazy to Google them. 

 So here I am with Amy (red hair/lovely gal who invited me) and Maggie.  Both awesome chicks in my ward.  I served with Amy in activity days, but (sniff sniff) she just got released and put into YW.  And when I served in YW, Maggie's twin girls were in there.  Now one is married and the other is engaged.  I am feeling old.


This gal.  Wow.  What a story.  And yes, I was totally like a groopie at this thing.   During each break the speakers would come out and you could wait in line to have them sign stuff- cause all their stuff (books, cd's, ect) was for sale, but I was/am too poor to do that, so I was the nerd just going up and saying, "Hi.  Can I get a picture with you?"  And pardon all the nasty photos of me.  I am pretty sure seeing these photos is what made me pull the trigger when it came to my hair and whether or not to cut/color it. 

With Jenny Oaks Baker after she played us some incredible music.  Yeah, definitely made me hope that my kids want to play some musical instrument.

OK, this ladies name I can't recall, but she was hilarious I tell you.  A total hoot.
Don't be jealous.  Just hanging with Jericho Road.  Word to the single ladies:  the white dude in black is single.  Maybe you can hit him up at the next TOFW that they attend.  Super cool guys, and yes, they almost had me jumping out of my seat when they started performing some Backstreet/N'Sync songs.
Again, another ladies name I don't recall, but I LOVED her presentation.  Totally motivating and inspiring. 
This dude was cool too.  Humorous.  Enjoyable.  Everyone did such an awesome job.  Couldn't go wrong with these peeps. 
These chicks were fun and styling as well.  And no, I don't remember their names.
Best for last perhaps?  SERIOUSLY.  This lady.  HILARIOUS.  Wow.  Her delivery was stellar.  She could be a stand-up comedian.  No joke.  Please, if you ever have the chance to hear her, GO!  You will not regret it one bit.

I absolutely loved this day and half event and would highly recommend it to all the ladies.  I'll definitely go again.  Who's in??
