Easter Weekend

How much can you pack into 24 hours? With the help of Katie Call---ALOT. As most of you know, Katie and David are moving to Idaho this weekend, so I went down to spend one last weekend in Ogden with my sister. I arrived about 4pm, and we went to a lovely dinner at Applebee's. Well, the dinner was lovely, the food was so-so. Then Katie presented me a challenge. To buy two shirts and one pair of pants for $20. We hit a few stores but didn't find anything. Deciding we were burned out for the night, we bought ice cream, face masks and rented a movie (essential for a girls night). Add in alot of can't-breathe-because-we're-laughing-so hard moments, and we had a winner of a night!

Saturday we hit more stores, and I eventually lost....but only because I overspent by $9 on a cardigan that Katie swore was worth losing the challenge. After a yummy lunch at a bakery I've forgotten the name of, we grabbed some Krispy Kremes and went back to pack up my car.

I had the BEST time, and am happy Katie will be closer so we can hopefully do it again. Thanks to the rest of my family who helped watch my children so I could be just Jill for a bit.

Me taking the challenge. I lost, but ended up with three really cute pieces of clothing.


One of my non-challenge purchases....a hat. Please let me know your opinion, as I'm not a hat person. Katie did put one of my hat-fears to rest, however. Thanks, sis, I was sweating that after-dark issue.

The fiesta happening next door. The party started at 9am and was still rockin' when I left at 4pm! It was like being back in Cabo!


Katie and I took over 15 pictures trying to get a good one. Sadly, this is it.


Sunday was Easter. These are all the pictures I have of the kids. I didn't even get them in their Easter clothes! We were running late and I didn't think of taking a picture. I'll get it next week. But we made it to all three meetings. That's huge. HUGE.




After church Ben, Kim and Matthew came by for dinner.
