Weekend Retreat

I feel so blessed to be writing this from a weekend retreat in Michigan.

A fun, relaxing time with friends.

I am surrounded by beauty and grace.

I am sitting in this chair. The only difference is it's dark outside. And the computer is on my lap. I get to sleep in this room. I'm still pinching myself!

I can hear the waves hitting the beach. Who knew Lake Michigan could be so loud.

My first view of the Lake, from last night. We just missed the official sunset, but the remnants were pretty spectacular.

But what makes this weekend special is the company.

    Looked so wonderful! Was it just a girls' getaway? Great photos. Really drooling over the "peacefulness" of it all. Glad you could go!
