Stephenson Girls Trip 2010

Another fabulous girls trip under my belt! We had such a great time together. We stayed in St. George again at my cousin-in-law Tamara's mom's house. It is the nicest house ever and can actually fit all 23 of us. We only needed 2 blow up beds...pretty impressive! Here are the aunts and my mom. I have the best aunts ever!! L to R Mom, Aunt Chris, Aunt Jean, Aunt Mary, and Aunt Sharon
I did not take a picture the whole trip until the last 2 hours of the last night. I am hoping some other people will give me pictures of the other events of the 4 days. We lounged by the pool a lot and went down the waterslide! So fun. We also shopped, some got massages, went to eat, pray, love, and went out to eat. This picture is of our shuffleboard tournament. I of course was out in the first round losing to Aunt Jean. We have some competitive women in our family!

Amy was the winner winning a spongebob puzzle, and Shannon was the runner up (not sure what she won)

The rest of the pictures I just wanted to get photos of everyone there- These are my Vegas cousins-L to R Tori (a first timer to the girls trip), Aunt Jean, Jamie, and Chelsea (another first timer!)

out by the pool reading magazines-Shannon, Sarah, and Rebekah (first timer)

April flew out from Denver to be with us! It was her first year and hopefully not her last!! Love that girl!

Tamara and her mom Ginny (the owner of the house)

Jacque, Cathy, Courtnee (another first timer to the girls trip), and Julie

This picture of Cathy is my favorite!! haha

Me, Mom, and Shauna

April, Aunt Sharon, and Amy

all the pregnant girls...well sortof. Amy is not technically pregnant but thinks she might be, so we added her to the picture! We'll see if she was right in about a month. Amy, Rebekah, Tamara, and Melanie. Mel was such a trooper with only 3 weeks till she delivers Baby Chase. Although she isn't in any of my pictures, Claire was also with us on the trip. First baby to come on the trip after persuading them I didn't want to miss it. She was really good and I think everyone had fun holding her.

My mom bought some cute new capris and some Big Star Jeans. So stylish!

Bethany, Sarah, and Chelsea left late Saturday to surprise their husbands by coming home early.

Bekah, Mom, Mel, Me, and Bethany

We all bought the same sandals! Mel was pretty swollen so she was showing off her swollen toes. Me, Amy, Mel, and Bethany loved these blingy brown flip flops.

We always have so much fun together, I love my family. My mom was quite a hoot telling stories about how she can't do a cartwheel or hula hoop anymore. You need to see her demonstration, it is pretty hilarious. She also told about how she is "obese" and tried to convince the girl at the bodpod at BYU otherwise. So funny. April also had a great story of a conversation with a Rite Aid employee about how his brother was buried in Colorado. Awkward! We laughed til my face hurt. The last night we had a great conversation remembering all the great people that have passed away in our family in the last few years. Many tears were shed and it just reminded us that relationships are the most important thing we have. I am so glad we do this trip every year to make those relationships even stronger. Until next year...
