Tall Oaks Retreat

Last weekend my friend Jess and I hosted 16 fabulous ladies at Tall Oaks Retreat in Arbor Vitae, WI. Our friend Casie runs the joint. There were many a ScrapFreak and WIScrapper in attendance. It was such a nice mix of people!
It was such a kickA@# weekend. A big thanks to Nick and Grandma Mary Ella for keeping the girls occupied at home so I could escape for a couple of days.



We laughed



We ate



We drank



We stood by the fire pit in the rain



We watched classic 80's movies



We scrapped



We slept very little



We giggled at things that weren't naughty as if they were



We borrowed supplies



We laughed



We ate



We drank



We oohed and aahhed over layouts



We survived 36 hours without wireless



We survived intermittent cell service


On Saturday we headed into town for some scrapbook shopping and lunch. Here is the group at The Thirsty Whale. Yes- I'm laying on a whale.
Casie, Jess and I did share a room but didn't plan to be all matchy with our black shirts. But we look pretty cute if I do say so myself.
When I'm the zone going on a few hours of sleep I turn into a ScrapNinja!!! I completed 14 layouts. That's pretty durn good!
I will cut you!
I cannot wait until our next Retreat!!
