Happy.
I keep falling behind on here. Can I use the excuse that I'm pregnant and not with it lately? I will.
I'm pregnant my friends.
So anyway, catching up...
.:::little bits of the season in photos and words about the last week(s):::.
Last weekend I packed my duffle bag and gave kisses and hugs to Josh and the kids. I was off to what would be my my first time at Ladies Retreat in Chambers, NY. Really, I didn't know what to expect. I knew that I was a little nervous. I knew at moments I grew a bit hesitant about going. ...But I also knew I had to go. Because I knew the experience was one that I needed. and I knew I would come back with my spirit lifted.

and I was right.
We slept on old metal bunks in a big, cold cabin.

^This is my friend Ellen. Striking a pose. You'd be surprised at how glamorous one can feel when you wake up from a nights sleep in the Bunk House.
I don't have many other pictures from the experience but I have to say I am so happy I went. The speaker was amazing... and as we all have said... She really spoke to our hearts.
