Sweet Life Cafe wrap up

>> Friday, October 16, 2009

From Ahab (a.k.a. Elvis), to trading our burdens for promises at the cross, Sweet Life Café was a time of Jesus, retreat, relaxation and girlfriends.

We got to know each other a little better – and in some instances, maybe a little too much!

The pajama party was a riot. Bunnies, devils, leopards, kitties, and Whos (as in Dr. Seuss).

My favorite drummer, Stephanie Jolley, won the prize for best pajamas on Friday night, with Tiffany Witt and Jan Frierson rounding out the top three.

There were regular pj’s in attendance, and then there were … the other pj’s. There will be no pictures posted from the pajama party. After all, we are a godly group of ladies and wouldn’t want to embarrass one another for the world!

Or would we?

Just kidding!

Family Feud.


We made special gifts of cinnamon pancake mix wrapped up nicely in a tea towel.


Each Cafe group worked through devotions as a group. The small groups allowed for quality discussion time.




We had a visit from two heads of state: Ahab (aka Elvis) and Jezebel. See their crowns?




It's not naptime yet.




Praying for one another.


A game of spoons. Before.
(there will be no "after" pix - an innocent game of spoons can end brutally)



More Family Feud.


Hey! Do you mind? We are huddling here!



And .... ummm... exactly what are they doing?


Cafe groups working through devotions.




Assembling the pancake gift bags.
Communion.
A parting shot.
We missed every one of you who could not attend. There is a special, lasting bond that forms between the women who attend these getaways.
We are always stronger together .... than alone.
