The retreat came at a perfect time for a lot of us. We are all moms, wives, friends, and women on the go. We need the batteries recharged at times and this is how we choose to do it. Pack up the car, drive somewhere, and look froward to the goofy things we will be doing. Staying up late is very common, swapping stories, supplies and laughs are common place. We laugh, we cry and listen to each other. I watch women who probably would never have any other reason to get together and hang out become friends and sister. Then we do it all again the next day.
This retreat is no exception. We meet new people, reminiscence with the friends we already know. We ooh and ahh over each others things. Figure out new things that we NEED to buy because we can not live without them. Give things away because we can and someone else will use it.
I love these retreats, whether I get on a plane and go get in the car and drive. I look forward to the next one, which I happen to be hosting.
Recharging the batteries, the best thing ever.

I had an AWESOME time. Thank you for being the driver! I really needed this time away. It could have been a little longer and I would have been okay with that!
"I watch women who probably would never have any other reason to get together and hang out become friends and sister."
This is my favourite part. I develop deep relationships with women who's path I would never, ever cross with otherwise.
