I am back from my scrapping retreat! Janell and I arrived in Eau Claire on Friday around 2:30 in one piece! It's amazing to those that know my sense of direction and ability to read a map etc. Thanks to the GPS that Ken got me from work for the weekend. It was a life saver.
Anyways, what a beautiful place this retreat was. It is called GreenHaven Retreat. They had beautiful quiet peaceful bedrooms, 4 whirlpool type tubs in the back of the retreat as well as a living room with gas fireplace, big kitchen/dining area. And of course a huge room for all of the scrapping to take place. Cricut, computers, internet. You name it, they had it!
For Janell and I it was the first time leaving our kids for a weekend. That was the hardest part. Espeically at night, when that is usually cuddle time, bath time, and for me rocking my princess to sleep!
Ken did admit that he missed me and he now appreciates what I go through when he leaves on his fishing/hunting trips. That alone was reason enough for me to have gone on this retreat. It's hard, and I'm not sure how single parents do it!
But, unfortunetly because I am the great scrapper I am, I forgot my camera so I don't have any pictures. My good friend Colette should be emailing me the couple that she took for me. As soon as I get them, I will post them for you to see.

I had a great time with you! We will have to make that a yearly sisters thing!
it sounds like you had a blast. And was a well deserved break. You must have come back refreshed. That is how I feel when I go to Ryan's parents house with him. Just to get away is nice, but it must have been hard. I do not know what you went through, but at least you took the leap and did it. Let me know how your babies are doing. I am wondering how they are. Today I will be getting my things I need to start my scrapbook. I am getting excited yet not. I am affraid I will get overwhelmed with this project. So I might have to call on my girls to help if I freak out. Talk to you soon!
