I had the awesome privilege of attending our church's women's retreat this past weekend. I was so excited to be able to spend this time with all of these amazing women. There were women there that I've known my entire life. Those are the ones I've grown to admire just by watching them in their walks with the Lord and in their interactions with their families. Then there were the ladies that I didn't know very well, but got to know better at the retreat. And what a blessing that was!
I learned so much! I realized that I can reflect God's glory if I don't let anything or anyone get in the way of me and the Father. And that's what I came home wanting to do...reflect God's glory and let His light shine through me in all that I do and say.
These are some of the ladies that I spent the weekend with. Each of them hold a special place in my heart...
...and these beautiful ladies are my cousin Karm, my Aunt Marci, my nana, and my mom.
I missed my hubby and my boys so much while I was gone! But Dave did such a great job taking care of everything. I came home to a clean house: laundry had been done and folded, dishwasher had been unloaded and loaded up again! Plus he had to take Hunter to the Dr. twice! I am so lucky and blessed to have had this wonderful experience and a loving husband who took a day and half off work to take care of our kids so I could go.

I'm so glad that we both got to go this year! Can't wait until next year! It takes us being away for a few days to realize what great families we have sometimes doesn't it! Well, now we know that our boys can handle it, lets go again!
