The group of gals I went with started with going into Old Towne Scottsdale and having dinner at Cowboy Ciao. Wow! that was a fantastic meal and let me tell you, the eating never stopped till I got home!

| This was my shrimp dish...did I ever tell you how much I love shrimp?? |
 |
| OH MY GOODNESS....we all shared this! |
The evening session started with meet and greets, praise songs, and a wonderful message on Hope. I felt that was timely in my life. I would say there was 125 women that attended. Afterward it was game time...I ducked out and went to bed in my gorgeous resort room.

After the morning session, we had free time....which meant LUNCH. We went to another fabulous restaurant at Scottsdale Fashion Square Mall. Then....oh, the angels began to sing....we went to Charming Charlies!!! There was about 40 of us converging on this store and we were there for about 2 hours! I NEVER knew there is a clearance corner!!!!! I DO NOW!
We came back to go swimming for a bit...it was 114 degrees. Then it was a quick shower and back for the evening meal...eating again!! There was an evening session and more fun time.

| Bunny greeted me Friday morning to say Hi! |

| Great songs of Praise! |
Saturday morning, after what?? breakfast! (Thank God for elastic!) the last session and farewell to all our new friends. Then my 3 pals and I went to Goodwill in Scottsdale and shall I say it....LUNCH! My son and his friend met us at another Goodwill where he took me home....I was done, done, done!!!

It looks like you had a wonderful time! (No hotel room pictures?) I've got to try some of those restaurants whenever I come home again. Please keep us posted on how the chemo is going. You continue to be in my prayers.

Like the sign said, take it to the Lord in prayer. I am stopping to say a prayer for you right now. Lori
What a wondeful retreat. I would have gained 50 pounds!;>) I have to tell you though..(you know me and my weird sense of humor)...look at the picture of you standing behind the donkey (burro?) and you will notice that your legs have disappeared and you have the legs of a donkey!;>) I know..I know...only someone like ME would notice THAT!
I love that you had fun and I am praying for an easy chemo session! You can do this, girl! God bless-xo Diana
Looks like you had a wonderful time! I love old town! Great place to walk around too.
Everything looks fabulous! Take care. We are in your corner through the chemotherapy.
I hope it was a good exhausted. So nice to have some special girl time. Glad you went and the food looked so good. All those days and no cooking. What a treat.
Ceekay! What a wonderful weekend for you!! With your fun loving attitude you will Kick That Cancers Butt! Big Time!!
Fun with our girl friends is the best! Sending prayers for your chemo treatments!

It sound like a wonderful time Ceekay. I'm so glad that you were able to go to be with the girls.

Looks like a fun getaway! I'm sure you were fed spiritual as well as all that great food!

Hi Ceekay,
how wonderful to spend fun time with your very special girlfriends.
Had to laugh at Diana's post that you had the legs of a donkey...I noticed that too and had to chuckle. Only she would bring that up! LOL!
I think you look wonderful and I'm glad that you are ready to fight back. I'll be thinking of you everyday.
hugs
