Spring Women's Retreat


Well this is the road I had to drive up to get to the retreat. It brought back memories of my only car accident.

The first speaker of the weekend was Lisa. I love to hear her speak she is just wonderful. When Renee lived here she watched Lisa's boys. She also spoke on Romans 12;2 this is renee's life scripture. "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is ---his good, pleasing and perfect will.
This made me think about Renee a lot that day.

This is Connie. A very good friend and our E.F. (educational facilitator) from school. It was neat to spend some time with her. We love her very much and it is so nice that our teacher also goes to our church.

This is my bunk. It kinda looks like a cabin on a cruise ship. I had two kinda tuff sleepless nights, but thats another story.
This swing looked so inviting to spend a couple hours on, to do some reading. But it was tooooo cold. I brought the sleeping bag out to wrap up in and made it about 30 mins before giving up. It is really hard to turn the pages in the book when you are wearing gloves.
I had a very wonderful spirit filled weekend. I was able to spend some time alone with myself and know how much God loves me.

well I took the sleeping bag down but, all I could picture in my mind of trying to climb into the bag and get tangled and fall on my head onto the cement under the swing and break my head and really none of that sounded appealing to me.

Thats funny Kelly I though it was kinda weird for Bryce to comment but hey. And yes it was pretty cold but I do prefer cold than hot with no A.C. but thats just me.
