What a fun time we had at the ladies fall scrapbooking retreat! There were 31 ladies all cropping, pasting, cutting, and remembering family and friends for a full 24 hours of scrapbooking. I always find it to be so enjoyable to walk around and see what other women are working on. Some were working on fun trips they took as a family, some on albums of their children, and some on wedding pictures from 20 year ago! What fun and meaningful memories to preserve and share with the people around. That is one of my favorite things to do – listen to others as they share their story. Some stories are sad and hard to hear, yet amazing when we look deeply at it and see God’s hand in the whole thing. Other stories are exciting and full of laughter, another great avenue to see God’s love and know that he is laughing with us as we enjoy the people He put into our lives. All in all, a great time was had by all who came. A final thought and word of encouragement to all of you fellow scrapbookers – remember to share your faith in your books. A simple verse or story to share God’s grace, love and mercy in our albums now may affect generations to come in way we may never know.
Happy Scrapping!
