Thursday the 16th of March has arrived and is the start of another retreat. This weekend's theme is Party Like a Rockstar and Stephannie went through the house making the changes. She is so creative. Let's start with the door signs.
Someone got a private room -
As did someone else.
The party room!!
The room fills and sounds are all around me. Once again, Linda is teaching the Origami Bag.
Ramona starts things off with a TA-DA
And that's the highlights for today. Lots and lots of chatting and laughing. So fun to meet new people and share in their stories too. Last ladies pic.
