  • DIVINELY DRESSED ...

     

    I have safely returned from my trip to South Carolina, where I had the pleasure of speaking for a group of wonderful women. There were more than 70 women gathered on Mrytle Beach for some rest, relaxation and renewal. We, unfortunately, didn't get much beach time ... the schedule was tight and the weather was chilly. We did, however, spend some wonderful time in fellowship where we did a little crying ... and a lot of laughing.

    The theme was 'Divinely Dressed'. In the true fashion of creative women, there were decorations and goodies to follow our girlie theme. Fancy shoes, purses, and hats donned the tables and decorated the room.

    In between my times at the podium, lots of activities were going on. It was a joy to see my little girl (who will be 30 years old in a few weeks ... ikes) taking charge and keeping things running smoothly. I thoroughly enjoyed stepping back, watching and capturing a few of those moments on my camera. When I wasn't able to grab my camera, Court was snapping the shutter for me.

    Here are a few visual highlights of our weekend ...
