Manwaring Established 2003

In September the Manwaring sisters and mom were able to escape (thanks for all the husbands watching the kids) for a night in Victor, IF at the Fox Creek Inn Bed & Breakfast. We arrived at dinner time and enjoyed being together in the quiet without having to watch or feed our kids. We had a blast as usual with lots of fun chatting, and of course our new tradition of “Our favorite things” We each brought our favorite item to share with everyone and went home with fun bags of new things! Here is a picture and list of items I stole off Elena Bog (Why write it again when it’s already done for you :) Thanks to Elena and Becky we have fun pictures. Amber- Colored toilet paper (We laugh every time we go to her house and see her pretty yellow, pink, and green 1960's t.p. She inherited loads of this from her Grandma's house.), raisins (Amber is NEVER without her raisins.), and CUTE bracelets Anna- Witches Brew Scented Candles and Flips pretzels Becky- Crossword puzzle books WITH pencils. (We even had a crossword puzzle challenge and of course Becky won.) Elena- Bath-n-Body Works Pumpkin Pie home fragrance spray Emily- Paul Mitchell firm style hair spray (Great gift from the hair dresser in the family.) Katie- Fabreze Lavender Vanilla Kaylin- Homemade craft blocks Missy- Scented sachet powders to pour into our vacuums Natalie- Biore pore strips, face masks, and crest white strips for our teeth It's not a sister sneak without Biore strips and face masks. lounging and reading. The Bed & Breakfast was so nice and the beds were COMFY!! You'd think that we would have gone to sleep and gotten some rest, but instead we stayed up laughing and talking until 2:30 am, but we did get to sleep in until 10 the next morning so that was wonderful. David and Julie (the owner) made us a beautiful breakfast and kept us entertained. What a hoot these two were. Seriously, don't they just look like fun? Who wouldn't enjoy them making you a breakfast fit for a king? Thank you to them for making our weekend completely enjoyable. Julie's bird ,"Girl Bird", entertained us with her dances and talking. And of course, you can't go to Jackson without getting your picture taken in front of the famous antler arch. Back: Amber, Kaylin, Emily, Becky. Front: Missy (holding Izzie), Me, Anna, Natalie, Katie Our get away ended with dinner at Johnny Carinos and some uplifting messages from the women leaders of our church at the General Relief Society Broadcast. Now we all sit and wait for another year to do it all over again!
