Girls Weekend

So it has been decided for sure. With the majority vote both times we are going to have the girls weekend the third week in July. That is a for sure thing so you can all book your tickets or make plans accordingly. I am now looking into housing and I am trying to find something that will please everyone. I know that budgets may still be tight(won't it be great when we can start having the girls weekends at lavish resorts with spas and expensive shopping? haha) so I want to find something within reason. I am excited and I will keep everyone posted on what I find.
Can't wait to see everyone there!

OPERATION DECISION TIME!

1-  Ok, so I've tried a couple of times now to get a hold of Amy about solidifying the date for girl's weekend.  We've gone back and forth a little and SOOOOoooo  I'm putting a poll up.  PLEEEZ vote for truly what would work best for YOU and whatever weekend wins WINS!  THE POLL CLOSES TUESDAY NIGHT because I know some of you are anxious to take advantage of early purchase airline deals.  

Keep in mind that the three days of the getaway will be packed full of fun, so arrive the day before if possible.  Plan on Sunday afternoon - Monday morning departure if possible.

May the best weekend win ;0)

2-  We NEED a head count for Amy to anticipate how many bedrooms/ rooms we need for the accommodations.  Please RSVP by using the other poll on the right AND by commenting to THIS POST.  We know of several of you who have said you're coming for sure, but we haven't heard for sure from most of you.  Seeing as how the dates might have a roll in your decision, I'm leaving this poll up for a little longer.  We'll know which weekend to plan on by Wednesday morning, March 18th- the morning after the poll closes.  We'll leave the RSVP poll up for a few days after that.

Girls weekend possiblities if we go with Utah

Seeing that we might be changing our location to Utah, I did some phone calling and this is what I have discovered so far. About the resort option from my sister in law. (see comment in the last Post if you have no idea what I am talking about) There is a resort in midway (by park city) with a pool, kitchen, Grill, etc. A 2 bedroom sleeps 6 and for a 3 day thurs fri sat stay it would cost us about $360. She said she stayed there and thought it was really nice. In Ogden canyon, a little more than 40 min out of downtown SLC there is another resort but the 2 bedroom fits 8-10 people and it is a little older so it is slightly less expensive more like $350 with cleaning fee which she said was around $5o. These book up extremely fast so we would have to move pretty quick and figure out how many of us are going. My mother in law gave me some #'s to people with cabins that I will call. She also lives right next to the provo temple in a beautiful home and offered that if we want, we are welcome to all stay at her house. Only she and dad live there now and so there are plenty of beds, bedrooms, bathrooms, and there is a separate basement apartment with a kitchen, big screen tv, pool table, patio, etc that we could use for our partying. Bonus, its free. (And my in-laws are cool and would love us being there) Downside, no pool. However, there are lots of pools and waterparks nearby. So if we find we are pinching pennies, (or want to spend our money on shopping and eating out) this might be an option. I will find out more about the cabins also so we have stuff to choose from if we choose to change our destination to Utah.
