It has come that time again. It is retreat time. One of my favorite times of the year. I can really use it right now. It couldn't have come at a better time. And the plus is that my Mamma and sister are coming too. Since Pappa died in September Mamma has been really lonely. I know that there is a kind of healing that being with other women can give that is like no other kind of healing. My sister just really needs the break and the fellowship of other women as well. I am going to be sharing a room with Mamma and Jill. I think it is going to be so much fun. I think the last time just the three of us did anything together was when I was under 12. I really can't wait.

And then next weekend comes my second favorite time of the year. Making Pumpkin Rolls with Miss Laura. I so love this time. Too me this is the kick off of the holiday season. We have such fun and fellowship and I just love baking. I can't wait till my girls are old enough for us to all bake and talk together. That is one of my favorite things about the Holidays with my family. When all the women are in the kitchen helping to clean up and we all sit and talk. My husband also looks forward to Pumpkin Rolls with Miss Laura.lol He does LOVE the end result. The wonderful tasty Pumpkin Rolls. I told him I would be gone all day the Saturday after the retreat and he of course said why. I said it is Pumpkin Roll time. He said "take all the time you need." lol
