I'm posting the comment thread so its easier for everyone to read :) Also, I spoke with Jenny Coates this week and she would love to come this year (and would have a little baby girl with her as well!) Does anyone know of anyone else who's thinking about coming? Kami- can you contact Megan and see if she's thinking about it? I don't have a # for her anymore.... Thanks!

I am hoping to make it. We will be heading that way during June. I was hoping to have it in Idaho since a lot of us might be there anyway...maybe Island Park or Pocotello. SLC would be doable too. I would have to vote for sometime in very early to mid-July because I don't think I can be out there in June and then turn around and come back in August!!! But, I will try to make it to anything. I will see what I can do to help with the planning this year. I don't live close, but I will try and figure something out. I have a friend who has a sister who owns a cabin on a lake in Island Park. Who knows if they would be willing to let us use it???

So any time is good for me. I know of someone who has a cabin in Island Park too that I am pretty sure we could use. I can take on any planning, NO Jenny I am not bringing Alexis. She will be at a non fun age at that time. She will be okay for a weekend without me. :)

Girls I'm so excited for girls weekend. Already my summer is shaping up to be the busiest its ever been.There are 3 dates that look doable for me. July 8-9, 22-23or 29-31. I hate that I am not so flexible not sure how my life got so busy. June, Jeremy will be on a 2 week rotation in Boise, I'm going to try and drive up with the kids for part of that.
I loved it in utah, but maybe that was because I started with such a great massage from "Lake Mead."

Rachel and Adam were just here in Az, it was so good to see you guys. Just makes me that much more excited for girls trip.

I am good for UT, and I would be good for ID. We do have a cabin in ID, but with Brett deploying in May, I don't and can't commit to any for sure dates and any planning.:-(
I am hoping to be up there in the end of July for a triathlon ( i am in a lottery right now). RIght now I am thinking the beginning of August will be good for me, if all goes as I am hoping. I hope all is well with you guys. Love you, Kami

My summer is open as of right now. If we had a date soon It would be possible for me to plan our other activities around it. If you guys wanted to do UT I would be happy to plan things out since I live here and all :)
Idaho is totally fine with me as well!
It was great seeing u too Jill and I agree about "lick me" ;) the best!!! Annalee will be old enough to leave at home so I don't think I'll bring her, but I am not 100% on that. Maybe we could put up votes on the sidebar for UT or ID and which month? and go with majority?

Hello ladies - wow I have seriously been MIA, haven't I? What a loser. I am so sorry and I hope we can get this blog going strong again!

First of all, I wanted to take a second to tell Megan how sorry I was to hear of your brother passing and that you’ve been in our prayers. We love you and hope you are doing ok. Sending our love---à

I think its time we begin firming up our plans for girls weekend this year, so I would LOVE all of your input. If you know you can't come, let us know. If you think you might or definitely want to try to come, PLEASE respond to this post - or preferably just post a separate post with your thoughts.

Here's what we need to decide:

Who is "heading it up" and who can come?

Where will it be?

When - what weekend?

As for me, I'm really hoping to make it! If all goes well, I'll have a new baby (end of June) so I'm hoping for an August girls weekend. My two cents about location is that when we did it in UT more people were able to come, so I vote for that. Am I the only one who will be bringing a baby? I don't know if Amy is planning on bringing Alexis.... forgot to ask you that Amy!?! I did mention it to my dad and he said we are welcome to use his house again, so that is one option. If we did decide to do that, It would be awesome if someone else could take on planning the activities etc.

Alright, well that’s it for me. So excited to hear from all of you J Big ((HUGS))

Caywood Update


I finally have something to update on. We are moving to Newport News, Virginia this summer. It is near the coast so hopefully there won't be too much snow. We are excited to move on in life. I have really liked living in Georgia so it will be sad to move. I hope that Virginia is just as great. It is a bigger area so I will get to live by a Costco again. There is only a Sam's Club here and to me it doesn't compare with Costco. I will even be by a Trader Joe's. The possibilities are endless.
Everything else is the same. The girls are growing. Jade is 5 and in Kindergarten. and Elise will turn 4 in a couple months. I was released from Young Women after serving in it for over three years. I am now the gospel doctrine teacher. We had a raccoon kill one of our chickens so Jason trapped it in a live animal trap and then he skinned it and even ate some of it. I didn't eat it but the girls tried it with him and they really liked it. So now we are as redneck as can be. We did get a new chicken to replace the lost one. That is probably the most excited thing that has happened to us for a couple years. I hope you all had a great Christmas.
