The Sisters Hideaway
One half of scrapping area
More scrapping area
Beautiful, peaceful sceneryI enjoyed a wonderful weekend of scrapbooking this weekend. My scrap group from my home church went on a retreat to the Sisters Hideaway. It was wonderful. The location was away from the noise and distraction of the world. It is located in Gunter, Texas. The sister who runs the retreat took very good care of us. The food was delicious and the beds were so soft.
Kalen and Vicki from our group planned the retreat. They did a great job. The theme was Hollywood and we watched movies while we scrapped and tried to fill in the answers to a list of movie hints. I never watch movies, so I did not know many answers. I think I saw more movies over the weekend than I have seen in the last three years. We each received Oscars for our great performances over the weekend. It was so fun. Todd created this great layout to hang on the memory board and we all signed it.
I shared a room with my friend Terry and her daughter, Erin. Unfortunately for them, I snore. Then my cell phone made noise during the night. I was not the best roommate. I did bring ear plugs for my roomies to use. Terry and Erin did some power scrapping. They created two giant books with 5 years worth of Erin's photos and memorabilia in it. They were a scrapping machine. Erin helped us find our way in and out. If it was not for her, Terry and I may still be wandering around the Gunter countryside.
There were three sets of Mother/Daughters on the retreat. They all had such a good time. I would love to scrap with my daughter, but I am not sure she is ready for that yet. I did make her a little scrapbook of pictures of her fur baby Finn. I think we all felt like family over the weekend.
I want to go back again and I would recommend this location to anyone who wants to plan a retreat. It was a wonderful weekend.
