We had a fabulous time at Retreat this year at the North Shore of Lake Tahoe. Here are some of the highlights from the weekend. We tried several new things and they ended up to be a big hit. Our retreat study/theme was I Do Hard Hard Things!
I can do everything through him who gives me strength.

I made 2 signs that helped decorate the room and allowed us to achieve the rustic decor we were going for. The pom poms helped bring a whimsical, girly vibe to the room.

| Mum centerpieces in reclaimed wood planter boxes. These were raffled off on the last day. They were a big hit!
We were so blessed to have Havilah Cunnington as our retreat speaker again this year. Last year she taught her Keep Calm and Finish Strong study. Everyone loved the newest study, I Do Hard Things. If ever you have a chance to hear her speak don't walk...run to the chance :) She's amazing!
This was our first year offering an accessory sale. It was great to see so many women donate their accessories. It was a huge success and great fundraiser for the Women's Ministry.

Here is one of the many giveaways (chalkboard trays). After each session there were great items raffled off.
Here is the amazing view we had all around us for the two days we were away! I am so thankful for our retreats they are such a special time to move away from the normal day to day distractions and focus your attention on God!
Love,
Ashley
