A Girls Weekend to Remember!




This past weekend my friends and I headed up the mountain to Twin Peaks for a weekend of fellowship. WOW! It was by far one of the best times I have had in a long time.
The retreat was sponsored by my church and most of the 165+ women there were familar faces as they were from my church, MOPS, neighbors, MOMS club, Kennedy & Michael's schools and great girlfriends. The gaggle of girls above were my roommates and we had an amazing time sharing our lives (past and present), how God is touching our lives and much more. The speaker was awesome!! She touched us all with her no-nonsense, funny Texan way and with the truth of how God wants us to come to him and to be obedient. There was much, much more, but I would be here all night telling you.
I asked God for his guidence in something that I am struggling with and He answered me so flat out.. I pretty much freaked out and cried time after time that weekend. GOD ROCKS! I might not want to do as I am told, but I am going to work on it. Were talking crystal clear!!
I made new friends, who are amazing and connected with old friends that weekend and I am grateful to have gone.
The foxy ladies in the foursome above are the most amazing ladies I know. Strong, loving, giving, and an awesome shoulder to cry on and laugh with. I consider them to be my best friends. Kimi and Laurel are missing from the picture as they were in a hurry to get home... why?? laundry maybe :) I am missing from the group picture as I was... well... you know me... talking with some friends that I had met and my group had to get going. Oh well, maybe next year. The last picture is with Jenn, WOW! what can I say but she is a beautiful person! Love this girl!! Need this girl!!
Lastly, if you happen to have your Bible handy, check out 1 John 2:15 - that's what I am working on. We have had such a lousy year or so and I have to (as my Mother in Law so perfectly puts it) "Get over it"! With God's help, I can. Keep the faith.
Love, Kerry
