On a lighter note (from my last post) this is the newest member of our family. He is Teddy, the hamster and we all love him! He lets us hold and pet him and Rob and I have talked about hooking his wheel up to a light bulb or something cuz he literally runs ALL NIGHT!! We thought maybe we could harness all that energy... No solar panels for us, 100 hamsters would do it! Of course they eat dried corn and we all know that's not getting any cheaper as a source of energy! So maybe this idea wouldn't work as well as we thought...
Ok, random picture but how cute is my daughter?!
Here are some picture from a women's retreat that was held Saturday April 12th at Wiseburg Methodist Church. I had come up with the idea last year and held one at my church. Someone who attended that day asked me about 6 months ago if I could come do a women's retreat at her church - so she and I put it together and it was a great day. We had praise and worship sessions, and devotions/lessons (a mix of live talks and use of media), a big lunch, and free time which included the choices of a craft station, Mediterranean hand treatment station, reading station with used Christians books the ladies could take home, music listening station to sample a variety of Christian artists, prayer/meditation station with finger labyrinths and stones to write your concerns on and leave at the foot of the cross, and a coffee and dessert bar. The day's theme was "You're God's Beautiful Daughter" and the whole event was 100% free to the 32 women who came (I don't believe in charging people to tell them how much Christ loves them). It went well - but man, I am exhausted!
And last random photo: The sky last night... beautiful.
