New Life's Women's Weekend

Women's Weekend - adj. & n. (fun) exciting. responsibility-free, a get-away characterized by the lack of testosterone present, as well as the abundance of estrogen on tap.

My Church is having their annual Women's Retreat and I AM GOING!!! It is held from 6 pm Friday Nov. 7th until 6 pm Saturday Nov. 8th. We will be staying at an Embassy Suites. I am going with and rooming with one of my best buds - Sarah. We are both super excited!

Not only are we promised:
relaxing and beautiful accommodations
3 yummy meals
fun times, deep times, laughter, tears and every good emotion in-between!
BUT I also will get the following:
Some time away from the kids
"girl" time
a slumber party with a close friend!
junk food
playing with hair
pedicures & manicures
music
giggles
SLEEP without interruption!

I WILL miss my family and I will wonder how they are getting along without me. I will probably call a few times:) Other than that, this is something I am REALLY looking forward to and I think I need this physically, emotionally and spiritually!

I am SO glad you are able to go!!! I've only been to one retreat and I "Worked" it so it's not a fair sample for me. One day I will go and just be refreshed! Love ya!

Sounds like fun! I will be going the following weekend for our annual scrapbook retreat, so I'm super excited for kid-free time, meals cooked for me, hanging out with the ladies, etc too! :)
