Revolve...time for God!


I left boyville this weekend to spend time with 6000 girls
basking in being what God made them to be....
themselves


So many images of life girls see without God.

As believers...It's time we take that ground back.


Girls are told they can be....

everything in society... but themselves...


God wants them to be real.


God designed and purposed their lives.


God wants them to live...


for Him...


And now's the time!

Mother and daughter time...
(one of our moms blessed to have a suv that carries a small country)



girlfriend time.....
(really close friends who will be soon separated by distance)




shopping time....
(someone sold their lamb and was carrying cold hard cash...)



avoiding the camera time...





instead of dressing to flirt...let's dress for fun time...
(disclaimer...these girls weren't ours...but aren't they dressed cute...)



But wouldn't you know it...

that
TIME
of the month....

second day we were there - can you believe it....

So I didn't get a chance to get a photo of the mom who organized us, Ms. V and a picture of our entire group. You know I love to document stuff!

She spent a few moments with me in the parent's lounge.... (that's Ms. V. on the left a pic stolen from last year's conference...)


we were sooooooooooo
relaxed....

one of the best parts of the conference.
Chilling and relaxing

without the 6000 (sorry girls we needed a break)

it was mommy relaxing time!

On our way home...
Of course a Target was found before we left and it became...

Starbuck's time.


Look closely.....
There is no Starbuck's in my hand.
I'm so proud of me... ('cause I LOVE Starbucks...but I had it last week)
and I was thinking...it's "Let's not spend any money" time!


Be blessed.
