Annual Yost Girl's Trip

This year for our girl's trip we decided to go to Mom and Dad's house. It was wonderful to spend all weekend there without kids to chase and husbands to worry about. We all met on Friday in Pocatello. I don't know how we did it but we shopped from about 10:00 in the morning to 9:00 at night. These bags are only the half of them. We all save money here and there throughout the year to take on this trip. I always look so forward to it. We didn't do so well getting pictures of us all together this year, but the memories are still fresh in my mind.

This is our wonderful Dad! Doesn't he look so excited to have us all home?!

Kera opted out of the jewelry and finished a plant stand for herself. She couldn't help staying out of the sun as well.

Misty and her list. We are always organized and on track with Misty around. She makes a list of everything we all need to get and do. We love her. Part of the girl's trip we also swapped recipes. I'm not so sure our husbands are happy about this but, who is cooking, right!

We had to let Logan in on the fun and the feel of a girl's trip. He is staying with my parents for the summer and milking 108 cows for a local farmer. He is quite the stud!

Every time we have a trip one of us gets our hair cut. That is until this year. We all got tired of poor haircuts, but that didn't stop Misty from having Mom highlight her hair with the cap. This has been a pretty consistent tradition for Misty. She is the only one daring enough. When my Mom went to wash it out, it was a little scary.
Can you say orange. It looked a lot better though once Misty fixed and styled it.

Here is my nephew Logan being quite the trooper. We talked him into letting his high light his hair. YIKES! We told him if he didn't like it we would just cut/shave his head he was okay with that. We failed to tell him I had forgotten my clippers and scissors. Thank goodness he's forgiving. I'm not sure he'll want to be involved in another Yost family girl's trip.


Here is the finished product of Misty and Logan's highlighted hair. Maybe a little to light on Logan's hair.

After hours and hours of making beaded watch bands and other jewelry. Misty had a tantrum. I think she had spent quite awhile making this piece and she was tying it off, an it busted all over the floor. This was not an act, this was truly a grown-up tantrum.
