well, tonight is finally here--the night i've been praying and preparing for for several months now--our annual women's retreat at church called 'a gathering of girlfriends'. (you may remember that i have been working on a seminar for the retreat called 'sanctuary: creating a home set apart for God') before my first seminar, i spent a little time with one of my favorite girlfriends, who has worked her bootie off on the retreat team preparing for this event. and we took a couple of photos. one of which we clearly weren't ready for. haaaa!! i heart her.
