RETREAT ~ !!!!

aaaahhhhhh ~ the retreat that we had last March 15 - 16 was A BLAST. I'm ssssooooooo happy going to this retreat & I regret nothing, considering that I didn't want to go at first (skepticism blocked my way of thinking, so . . . . )
It was a fulfilling experience for me, since me & my family are experiencing a lot of difficulties & trials right now, so it was relaxing & fun retreat that I will NEVER FORGET. I hope . . . (@_____@)



And now, for the PICTURES~!!! that was my first time taking a LOT of pictures in one place, nut it was so fun taking pictures of the beautiful scenery, surroundings, &, well . . . B-E-A-UTIFUL people, I guess . . .

the only thing that I regret during my stay is TWO THINGS: one, is the trip back home, where I had one of the worst headaches that I could possibly have in my entire lifetime; & the other one was that I was NOT ABLE to SIT on various places, like the large rocks, the bench by the pond, the fountain, ETC. the only place that I really sat on was the gazebos . . . uuuugggghhhhh ~
