Girls weekend!

I have to confess that I accomplished 0 organizing yesterday or today...Oh well..I take that back..
I organized my scrapbooking stuff so I could pack it for this weekend.

 {My scrap stuff all ready to go! yes...including the office chair. It's important to be comfy while scrapping...And I haven't even packed my clothes yet...I have my priorities in order!!}

Every year the ladies at church have a 48 hour scrapbooking retreat at a local camp grounds. I look forward to this weekend every year, and am very blessed that my Aunt, Mom, and Dad have graciously offered to keep my kids the past couple years since my husband works odd hours.

I wish I could say that I am one of those people who gets 100+ pages done, completing the past year entire scrapbooks for both children, and the family album...But I am not. Not even close. But honetly. I don't care. I am not just there to scrapbook. I am there to laugh, to relax, to recharge, to laugh again, to fellowship, to catch my breath, and did I say laugh??

I love the group of ladies that attend this every year! We always have such a great time..I wish I could say more...but what happens at retreat, stays at retreat.

In the short 3 years I have been a mother, I have learned that you need to make time for yourself...maybe not a whole weekend {though I highly recommend it if you can, at least once a year!} but getting away from the house for a couple hours, going to get your hair or nails done, grabbing dinner with some friends, whatever you can manage!

I will, however, miss my kiddos!!

 {Mr T is 3 years old, and Miss A will be 9 months on the 26th}

I love, love, LOVE my babies!! They make me smile on a daily basis :)

So tonight will be my last post for a few days..Sunday at least. The retreat ends Saturday afternoon, but the kids will be away an extra night so the hubby and I are taking advantage of a date night!! {Another very important thing to make time for!}

I hope to be back to organizing my home on Monday.

I hope you all have a great weekend!! I know I will :)
