LWML Portland Convention and more...

 

YWR 2009 Portland 030

This is a picture of my roommate and fellow Floridian, Juanita!  We spent the entire convention together and she is such an amazing person!  Here we are at our dinner with President Jan Wendorf who reminded us that we are all princesses because our Father is the King!  Honestly, I have never really thought of that, and it was really nice!  That is one thing from the convention that I will never forget!  Juanita and I are already planning on going to our district retreat together and future national conventions! 

YWR 2009 Portland 045

This is a picture of Crysten Sanchez who I worked with at camp many years ago!  I was really excited to see that she was also going to be a YWR at the convention!  I didn't have much time to sit and talk to her, but it was really nice to see her!  Check her out on facebook because she has made some of the most gorgeous looking cakes! She has a real talent, people!

YWR 2009 Portland 012

Here's a picture of Juanita and I working on our servant event project.  We tied quilts and we met some really awesome women while doing this!  It also has me thinking of some great service projects that I could do with ladies of my congregation!

Here's a picture of the ladies that I hung out with during the convention.  What cracked me up is that most of them are nothing like the people that I normally hang out with, but they just loved that I am from "Hollywood".  They are amazing children of God!  Tina, who is standing on the left side of me in this picture, is a friend of Margaret's from college!  It really is a small lutheran world! 

YWR 2009 Portland 001

This picture is not from the convention at all, it is from the night before I left.  This is Margaret and I when we went to see STOMP for her birthday!  I wanted to surprise her and bring her to something musical, so I didn't tell her where we were going until we were in the parking garage!  It was cute to see how excited she was!  It was also nice to surprise her with a fun outing!  She is an amazing person and I am truly blessed to have her in my life!  As you can see, I was supporting the Johnny Cash outfit this evening!

These pictures are awesome!  You look like you had so much fun!  Sorry I didn't get a chance to call you back today... I will call you back this week!  Also, your black outfit reminds me of the time we skipped class and went to the mall of America and you were dressed in all black because you had to go straight to pit orchestra afterward.

Ah yes, I remember being in the pit!  It was a great time that I got to bond with Cindy!
