Education Week

Sorry, people. No pictures this time, because I forgot to take any. But last week, Jeff let me go to Education Week at BYU! I was really excited about it, because I've always heard how amazing it is and it IS AMAZING! I loved every minute of it. My brother and I flew up there at 6am Tuesday morning, and we took classes for 7 hours straight that day. That night I got to spend time with two of my really good friends from Esthetic school-- Diana and Vanessa-- it was so fun! I haven't seen them in forEVER. Diana is going to have her baby in like 5 weeks and I haven't even seen her since she's been pregs and it was just great to hang out with them. The next day we did another 7 hours of classes before we had to fly home.

I couldn't wait to come home and tell Jeff everything I learned. I took a ton of notes and went through every class I took and told him everything. The whole time I kept thinking how much he'd love it, so I really hope we can go together next year. My favorite class I went to was about tender mercies of the Lord.

It was a great experience because it's just what I needed. Don't get me wrong, I love teaching the 5 yr old primary kids, but it was really nice to learn from the church's best educators. Can't wait to go back next year!

I have seriously wanted to do that forever! Maybe Dana and I will go next year too. Probably not though. Hard to find a sitter for a week :)

That sounds awesome! My aunt Anna said she went, too, and loved it.

Yeah, Anna actually invited my mom to go with her a few months ago when they had to sign up for the dorms super early and my mom thought she couldn't go and we all decided to go like 2 nights before we went ha. So it was last minute for all of us.

And Katie, my mom went every year when we were kids. It was her "nice get-away", and went by herself while my dad watched us all week. But it'd be so fun to be there with husbands, too!
