#20 is in the books

For twenty years now, a group of writers has been meeting in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, and I’m beyond grateful to be included in that number. These women are such a blessing and JOY in my life!

I just returned last night from our 20th retreat, and it was such a rich and fun time. Here are some glimpses…

We plot, play, and pray…and laugh like crazy.

Me and Brandilyn (Collins) during a plotting session. : )

Robin and Janet plotting in their pretty little hats!

It’s four days of sharing and praying and praising and singing and laughing and eating, and just incredible sister time.

One night we sat around the fire pit and talked and laughed—and made S’mores, of course. Delicious! Somehow I got voted to brown/burn/”completely annihilate” the marshmallows, and I happily fulfilled every one of those wishes. : )

I’m so grateful for our CdA time together every summer, and for these women in my life every day!

When’s the last time you’ve gotten together with friends and family for a fun evening or weekend? And have you sat around a fire pit and made S’mores lately?

As always, much love from Nashville,

Tammy
