Week-end To Remember Drop-Outs

Well, Pete and I are now Week-end to Remember drop-outs although it still was a memorable week-end for us. After the first 2 sessions on Saturday morning, we had a 50 minute break so we decided to go find something to eat since neither of us had eaten breakfast before the start of the conference. We had to be up at 6 am (after not going to bed until 1 am)in order to drop the kids off are two different sets of parents houses and get to Dearborn from Troy in time for the 8:30 am start time.

After that break, we were supposed to go back for another 50 minute session, then one and half hours for lunch, and then back again for 2 more sessions. It was a well planned out week-end with excellent speakers. However, neither one of us was really into it. I don't know how to explain it. It wasn't a bad conference just not a conference for us. So while we were enjoying our mid-morning snack, Pete said, "Let's just not go back." I had already been thinking that so I was THRILLED that he felt the same way. We left immediately.

We spent the rest of Saturday enjoying an early dinner at one of my favorite gluten free friendly restaurants, PFChangs, running errands, and then picking up the girls. My niece was having an ice skating birthday party at the Troy Sports Arena near our house that night as well. We put the girls to bed and watched a movie. Nothing exciting but we had a wonderful afternoon just being together.

We were both happy to not have to get up quite so early on Sunday to drive to Dearborn again. And especially because my Man and my Dad ended up having to drive to Ann Arbor to help Briggys with his new to him broken down car.
