This year General Conference was quite different then I'm used to - usually we spend it at the hideout w/Brian's family in St. Charles or here at home and sometimes w/my family from Washington! But this year I had the opportunity to spend it in AZ w/all the Hirschi women - aunt's, cousins, sister's, mom's, sis-in-laws and NO kids! Well other then the 3 nursing babes of course but they were so good the whole time it felt like it was still 'just the girls'! It was James' first airplane ride and my first time in Arizona, well more then just the airport anyway! Made so many fun memories and got to meet and get to know people in Brian's family I've never met or seen much! Some came all the way from Canada, Colorado & Oregon! We had a lot of funny stories to tell, yummy food, swimming at Krista's pool, fleet markets, more food, General Conference in between everything else and getting to see Aunt Colleen's new house and witness her pure gratitude and happiness to finally have a place close to her kids! Such a beautiful moment :) Some of the hubby's came but stayed w/Grant at their new place and only crashed at Angela's house on Sunday evening but fun to have them there! Then at the end of the trip Brian's cousin Laura decided to shave her head!! Some thought she was crazy and some scared for her but she is so adventurous and has always wanted to and thought it would be cool to do it in the midst of all her family! So she did it and it was definitely great entertainment and will always be remembered! Fun times!! Oh ya and I think I offered my home for the next one since everyone decided they want to make this a tradition every couple years! Sorry babe but it looks like it's happening - It will be lot's of fun though and I love hosting things and having a house full - that's what homes are for to be filled w/good people, good food and good times! Thanks to Angela for hosting it this year and I can't wait till we do it again - at my place :)
