reTREAT

My RA staff went to Lake Arrowhead for the weekend.
Isn't it great to just take some time off once in a while?
My favorite part: sitting.
Sitting and breathing.
Reading A Wrinkle in Time
Talking
Sleeping
Walking
Such a necessary part of life that sometimes gets pushed to the side.
It was nice to give rest the priority for a few days. Mmm.

On our way up we stopped at a gas station
which had some lovely lovely light.

Justin, Jon and Alex

While on a walk on Saturday we came across a wonderful tunnelalEX.

Katie and MonicaOhhh Alex again.A shopping cart in the marsh!Juli, Katie and Mon. Sure love you girls.
A highlight: we ate the most delicious food. Here's my very fresh avacado, berry, pesto cheese wrap. So much can happen in your soul through good food.Brother BEARS. They're such great buds. I love it.We did Heidi's senior pictures in the grocery store.
Well, we'll do some real ones, Heid. But these definitely have some...uniqueness! ;)Denise is a dancer, and one of my favorite people to photograph.
Hohhhhhhhhhhhhh.Be-dazzled.
Rachel: hero status!
Thanks for the retreat!
