Come Home
I had a wonderful time going to classes and feel totally spiritually rejuvenated. I learned a lot but mostly I was reminded of what is important and that is to keep Christ in our daily lives. I have come home with a new goal to simply FIND JOY IN MOTHERHOOD! That is something I struggle with on a daily basis. I have a tendency to get caught up in the mundane things of daily life and forget about Joy, and what it truly means to be a mother. I need to remember that I WANTED THIS!! But enough of my ramblings. If you ever get the opportunity to go to Women's Conference Do IT, it is worth ever thing you have to sacrifice to get there. I also have to say most of the sacrificing came from my dear hubby, he was so good to take care of kids, shuttling to lessons and what not, I so appreciate him for giving me this opportunity!
Staci got a new camera and followed suit when i jumped out of the car to get pictures of the beautiful tulips blooming everywhere. Sheri and our friend Lisa were also there so I grabbed a quick shot under this awesome weeping willow tree.

There is on average 17,000 women that attend womens conference each year, with numbers growing. I took this shot of the opening session on thursday, it is quite a site to see that much girl power all in one place.

I'm jealous -- but glad you got to go. The flowers are gorgeous! I wish it didn't already feel like summer here!
i am loving those blog boards you put together. the photos in them are fabulous. i would love to go do this one year with some of my really dear friends.
Great post! Awesome photos:) I love the one of your mom and the one of Staci with her camera.
I hear such great things about womens conference. i really hope to make it there someday...
I can't believe I didn't even see you guys outside of the hotel! I have moved on to all of the "teenager" geared classes, I guess!
I soooo wanted to go to Women's Conference this year. I have never been and so many of my friends were going. Jim has camp-outs 3 weekends in May, so I opted to stay home. It looks like you had a blast and your pictures are beautiful!
