I had the BEST weekend! I went to a scrapbook retreat with a couple of my friends!! It was my 2nd time to go, and already I can't wait until the next time that I will get a chance. The retreat is 3 times a year, but I will not be able to make the summer one. But I love going when I can!
I finished 29 pages. That may not sound like a lot, but for me it is. Especially when last time I only got done 14 pages in the same about of time. So I already doubled my speed. Although, some of the pages are not as elaborate as I did last time. I still love them all. I really love the creative energy that I get while I am there. It is really great to have other people to bounce ideas off of, and to get their feedback. I really wish I had time to continue to scrap this week, but with the living room project still going on, I don't see it being possible for me to get any done this week. Maybe in the next week or two, I'll be able to pull out my supplies, and do a few more pages. I do need to put some finishing touches on a few of the pages. Just a few little things here and there.
Retreat is amazing. The food is insane! There is a snack table, with almost every kind of junk food you can imagine. Plus they feed us breakfast, lunch, dinner AND dessert! What do we possibly need dessert for, when you have the snack table?!? LOL!!! I did pretty good with it though, I don't think I was too bad....Anyways, if you go to retreat, you will not go hungry. And if you do, it is your own fault.
So, I was there with my friends Freda and Angela. Freda was my roommate. We stayed up till about 2 a.m. BOTH nights we were there. I was sooo tired when I got home, and slept in extra late today. It was a lot of fun getting to hang out with my friends, but we are back home now, and it is time for me to do some work around the house............

I had not thought about you not being able to go in June. That's a bummer but hopefully you'll have a good time with the kids.
I had a great time, too and am glad we were roomies! I'll miss you next time!!! We need to schedule some scrap time, ASAP. Because once school is out, it's just not gonna happen. :(
