Fall Retreat 2012

 Collected Annette from seatac and rode the Seattle ferry home  it was her first time on this ferry route, and a beautiful sunset as a bonus. a quick stop in Sequim and onto home and a very restful nights sleep. the girl time has begun !!
 Dear B2K ! she had double carpel tunnel surgery on Monday and doctor clearance to spend her weekend scrapping !
 Dear Lulu, no will ever charm me as much as you do ! I am captivated by your wisdom, and nievety. your talents and desire to help the planet make me strive to be a better me. Thank You for choosing to be my friend !
 this is my oh don't cry Larena face... 20 retreats this beautiful woman has put on at my insistence. 19 of them I have been blessed to attend.  How can I make you understand what these weekends mean to me... they helped me get through many tough times, knowing there was a place I would get to go be safe and loved and so well cared for !! this Darling Heather has created a weekend wonderland for so many, she makes magic happen it is her nature. if you leave a retreat hungry you are at fault ! I usually leave heavier than I arrived and Happier too. always with great memories, sometimes with photos to prove it !
well as a thanks for so many memories we put together some fun things for her. I am so blessed with great girlfriends !
Vanessa made a yummy cake !

 such a beautiful friend!
some of her fun stuff
 damn bifocals worst part was it took me so long to stop moving it was funny !
 we even got Lulu over her fears of this one eyed monster.... however the other one might make her squeemish for a while... LOL !
 great fun ! Pumpkin eyes I had bats Cindy was a ghost
 lesson learned: when story teller is laughing so hard she's crying the punch line is gonna do you in !  "the Bitch fired ME!"
LOL !
 LOL!
 LOL!
 Saturday evening crowd and mess !
 I started to take the spider picture, as they are a normal (along with penis's at the retreats) i realized that I recognized two of the feet.  they have walked the globe and have the photo books to prove it  then listening to the voices above I realized the  2nd set of feet have spent time in other countries. 14 years in Saudi Arabia I believe. is  my go to medical knowledge filled person. these women have such a grand amount of knowledge!! I am continually blessed to keep company with these Ladies.
 this is my Cristel. she has added to my life in ways  one could never imagine ! she is down to earth and natural and the Mom I always tried to be. and with the fun of facebook she has saved a bad day for me by showing "a nice happening" at her house. God Bless her and our darling Sarah B that brought her to us !
 ahhh yes the penis.... LOL !
 good witch  bad witch dont let the smile fool you !!
  and sadly I cannot remember what they were pointing at but it took 5  shots to get one where we were all paying attention ! LOL! I knew the day I met Annette that she had to meet Cindy, they are cut from the same cloth in many ways and polar opposites in other. and both are as dear to me as can be ! they help my brain stay global. I do more research and reading of big words because of these 2 women!
 aren't they beautiful !
 Annettes Dragon came out soo cool !. as this gals artsy fartsy side begins to show even she is impressed !!  and she is stepping out of her bubble a little more, and opening up to a private showing of her pictures. I wish her great riches because it will not change her !
 
 eagle poop on the roof.
 fall in Washington
 the only hiccup of the weekend was solved quick and efficiently and made a new story to tell about a retreat ! thanks for all the help  ladies :)   
and on my return to the house has a nice black-tail deer. so we will have red meat this winter. ! I am so very blessed.
