Girls Weekend to Charleston

This past weekend I had the best time with my girlfriends in Charleston! We were a group of 6 & it was such a great change of pace to just wear the hat of "girlfriend" for the weekend. We were blessed and encouraged to attend the Women of Joy conference with great speakers, music & lots of fun. I came home feeling renewed. It's so nice to know that other women face the same struggles. The role as a wife & mom truly is a lot of hard work, but my joy and my rest comes from Christ. He is the one who can give true joy, and trying to find it through my husband, child, home or friends alone will never fully satisfy me.
We were able to enjoy some beach time at the Isle of Palms public beach. The water was cool, but the sun and sand were warm. It was perfect.
We enjoyed a wonderful meal at The Oak Steakhouse. Alexia had a crawfish on her plate - a little exotic.
Chrissie, Alexia, Angela, Teresa, Christa & myself. It was such a joy to spend the weekend with all of you!
