In the Details & Thank you so much!

Vintageblackboard
This blackboard that you created says it all- I love reading each and every word that you shared...Showing how so many different women in many different seasons in their life....can come together, share a little something from their life....and in the end when combined makes for a beautiful piece of art.

You are awesome!

The Spring Event is about just that....women joining together to share....we are more alike than we are different. 

Happy Day.

I thought I would make this post the last Vintage Spring Sorbet post....and just share some details in pictures.

Just have to say, that you looked awesome!

All we can say is- 

Our Joy comes from a feeling we now have a connection with you, we are forever connected in this small way because we shared this day together.  I believe we have choices....and we can make the choice to be happy ....we have seen in our lives the connection between gratitude and happiness.  We are grateful for you.

We give thanks in our prayers for that beautiful day.  Thank you , Thank you!

You were so cute- & visiting with Mindy Gledhill

 

BlogVintageSpringsorbet 152
Norma was voted the best "Vintage Spring Sorbet" style!   Norma you were so darling!

Yesterday I recived this email from Norma with the most awesome poem that she had written.

 

TO SHARE A DAY
 
Down the hill to a different world;
Let the magic flow,
Smiles on faces, tension eased;
A place that helps you know.
 
You are special, the world is yours,
There's wonder in the day,
Candy, ice cream, kites and flowers;
Presented in a brand new way.
 
Let go of your worries while you're here,
Let laughter flow like a stream;
Act a little silly, ride a bike,
Close your eyes and dream.
 
The music lifts your spirits,
The words embrace your heart;
Your soul has felt the wonder of the day,
And you're blessed as you depart.
 
Written by Norma Vineyard
May 2012
Thank you Teresa, Sandi and Ruth
Okay, so she made me cry- thanks Norma...how sweet.

BlogVintageSpringsorbet 102

Welcome Leslie- so nice to finally meet you.  {we meet through my blog} 

Photo Booth-

We had several areas around the property for Photo opportunities.

BlogVintageSpringsorbet 059
This area... I believe was the most popular area for a "Photo"-

BlogVintageSpringsorbet 094

It made me smile seeing everyone getting in on the fun-  Here are a few pictures from around the area.

The white bench was used a lot- Even Ellie and Eli got in on the action.

The Hanging frame and blackboard were a big hit- A little about the blackboard- we had each of the ladies cut a butterfly and then glue it to the board along with writing in one word.

The blackboard started off with the Butterfly quote a couple branches from my willow tree a couple banners and a little art work...the ladies added the rest.

Where to Start.....

BlogVintageSpringsorbet 171

(Sandi, Mindy, me and Ruth}

There is so much I want to share, I truly don't know where to start.....With that being said....I think I will just go with the flow.

Mindy Gledhill added a touch of Vintage loveliness to our Event....What I like about Mindy is her endearing nature....the moment you meet her, you feel like you've know her forever- plus she is always doing kind things for other....check this out.  Talent, Beauty and kindness rolled into one.

Mindy's little guy  was such a trooper.

"Spent But still Smiling"-

I have to say....the Vintage Spring Sorbet Event when way beyond our dreams- sweet happy day....and You are the ones that made the day perfect.  I honestly believe that as far as weather for that day....it was the best "weather day" of the year.   The power of 200 women praying. =)

Why we have the Spring Event-

Many have asked why we have the Spring Event.   This is why.....for you, Mothers, daughters, sisters and friends.

 

Shannonandfriends

Shannon and Friends-  These girls drove a combined 1250 miles to be  together at the Spring Event. Read their story here.    Some have drove from as far away as Texas to renew and rejoice in their friendship. {Becca & Allison.} And so many other stories just like theirs.

 We are inspired by . . . 

Women who love being mothers

Women who are happy, positive, and determined

Women who share their goodness, their light, and successes.

 

Tomorrow will be such a day...when women of all ages come together to enjoy life longs friendships, spend time with their daughters and Mothers.  Laugh, be silly...just have fun.  

Listen to and enjoy wonderful music- Thank you so much Mindy.  We are so doing the happy dance!

Mindy

Come ready to share, connect, inspire, laugh.

See you tomorrow. Yes, tomorrow!

Oh, Sweet, Happy Day!
