Sister's Retreat



























Every year my mom and sisters try to get together for what we call "Sister's Retreat". This year my oldest sister Debbie was able to get the Park City condo from her sister-in-law. We arrived Thursday and left Monday!! I arrived in SLC on Sunday before. Stacey, Brian and Mom picked my up from the airport. Brian treated us to Texas Roadhouse! That was fantastic!! On Monday while Brian worked we went quilt shop hopping! Stacey found new ones around Utah Valley! On Tuesday we met Kristol, Keesha and Tiffani at Gardeners Village. We went from shop to shop and when the restaurant opened, mom treated us to lunch. Of course, we found more quilt shops in SLC!! On Wed. we took mom to her cardiologist and kidney dr. and then headed to her house! We packed her up for the retreat. Good thing Brian let us take his truck! Thursday we shopped for the trip. The Sisters have to eat!!! We had the truck loaded and put in the fridge stuff at the last minute and took off for Park City on Friday. We were the first ones there so we got to pick which room we wanted! The sewing machines came out and so did the fabric!! Everyone had their own projects to work on and when Sandy was done with hers, she helped me!! Saturday we went to yard sales. After that, we went to get pedicures and then to lunch. Dave introduced sushi to Stacey and Kristol and now they love it. This was really good sushi too!! The noodles we had weren't near as good. Would have been better to just stick to the sushi. Of course the sushi has to be cooked, no raw for us!!




Debbie taught us how to make hooded bath towels and we also learned how to make some really cute hot pads. We watched movies, sat in the hot tub and ate!!! On Monday we cleaned up, packed up and left. Mom wasn't feeling too well. Then Tuesday came and it was time to head home to my hubby!!! This retreat was fabulous and it was so much fun!!! It was also nice to come home and be with Dave!!! He was missed!!
