The rest of the day

This one's for you Stephen. Short and sweet!
When others told us this place was huge, they weren't kidding. We get lost everywhere we go! But my traveling companion is pretty cute --so I don't mind.

Here we are at the Opening Banquet and Josh Turner Concert. Check out Rene's post for pics.

Afterwards we found Stephen and Candice at Jack Daniels. They think that just because they don't live in Utah anymore they can hangout at bars.:) Just kidding, it was the only place open to eat -- and Stephens buffalo wings were quite good, I must say. Then Jason and Rene came -- good times. We all ended up at a sports bar with our lemonade and soft drinks. First time I've been kicked out of a bar at closing. :)We laughed so hard my cheeks hurt....

...they did too -- and I think they enjoyed each other -- JUST a little.

PS I am really enjoying my "waking up with the stars" wake up calls. It's hilarious, you choose which country music star you want to wake you up. Yesterday it was Trace Adkins and today it was Vince Gill. I'm sorry I can't tell you what they said because I'm so tired - LOL -- but it does make me smile before I lay my head back down.

That's one thing about you all. You don't have to get a few under your belt to enjoy life. Glad you are together making great memories. Maybe you should go to some of the convention sessions though. You know I don't mind contributing to FOS, but you've got to keep the Deseret Morning News in mind. Ah, crap go ahead and have the best time possible.

heck, I thought Jack Daniles was a pseudonym for Tennessee. Don't knock Stephen and Candice, they are out to take it all in.

Just for the record -- this conference was paid for with a private donation to the council for this purpose -- a very large private donation. That was for the professionals and us spouses and kids pay our own way.:)
We're not using anyone's FOS.:)

and as for the Deseret Morning news -- we only missed the "Celebration" that night. It was three different rooms with three different bands. I don't think we missed much. Guess I should have clarified.:)
