Love Letters from Your Maker

Small Group 052

Could there be a more fitting weekend than Valentine's Day to spend with six amazing women? Our small group had its first (of many we hope!) retreats at Jannel's parents cabin on the lake in Madison, SD. The theme was of course love letters and I lead a few discussions on listening for God's love letter to you. Carrie talked about shoes... Which shoes are you wearing in your life right now? and Heidi shared a great devotional about friendship. Our honorary guest was Baby Grant who hardly made a peep! The week before, we decorated Valentines boxes to use for the weekend. We then all made Valentine's cards/letters for each other. Kim shared all of her amazing supplies and creative ideas. That evening was Spa Night and of course Mama Mia! The weekend was absolutely fabulous!

Checking in with my amazing husband who is home with the kids for the weekend. Yes, nice mask... until it wouldn't come off!! First I didn't realize it was a low-end (ie full of blue dye) formula and second I didn't read the instructions that advised to only wear for 2-3 minutes! Just call me Smurfette....
