Women's Retreat

The weekend of April 23-25th was our church's annual Women's Retreat at Grove Christian Camp in Cottage Grove.  Becca, Sydney, and I rode to the retreat together and bunked in a cabin with some of the other women from our moms group. The theme of the weekend was The Journey--and we all had an amazing, emotional, fun-filled time!

We stayed up late each night playing games and talking.  During the day we got to enjoy some great teaching from various speakers and then discuss what we were learning in our small groups.

At the end of the retreat we all stood shoulder-to-shoulder around the campfire as we "let go" of the baggage and burdens that we all carry with us on our journeys through life.  It was a really special moment being there with such a great group of women!
