After a very busy week at work Scott and I were able to escape! Monday and Tuesday were regular work/school days for us, then we ramped it up with 10 work hours on Wednesday and 13 work hours on Thursday. We put in the extra hours because it was so busy this week, and it sure didn't hurt to make up lost hours from the weekend! Friday morning Janelle, Scott, and I jumped in the car and made the drive to Boise. I was the driver (I love to drive) and we only stopped once because we can't quite make it on one tank.
We arrived home (Boise) around three in the afternoon and spent some time relaxing with the parents before going to the high school talent show that Melanie was in charge of. Most of the acts were fun to watch, but being in the atmosphere made me realize how glad I am to be out of high school. Don't get me wrong, I loved high school, but I am glad to never go back. After the show we went to IHOP. So delicious.
Saturday we spent time relaxing and doing some homework, made a trip to Costco and went to Melanie's soccer game (her team won!). After the game we hustled home to change for the adult session of Stake Conference. It was a nice session, and I enjoyed the messages shared. After the session ended we had a late dinner at Applebee's. So great! We even ordered a dessert to share, then we home for a Star Wars movie party. We only made it through the first movie before going to bed for Stake Conference in the morning.
This morning's conference session was nice - I love to hear my father-in-law speak. After eating lunch we'll head home so we can all get to class tomorrow. A quick trip, but totally worth it. Overall, it was an enjoyable trip.
Rachel, the Eastland genes all like to drive!
