I did it! I took L I T T L E R E T R E A T S on the road, and it was a success! And by “I” I mean an entire team of WE! Especially this last weekend. In fact, I’ve been overcome with gratitude for my family, and friends who support and help me in big ways to make these retreats possible.

This time around we rented a trailer, loaded up our tables, kitchen supplies, and more.

Cedar City, Utah!!!! I am headed your way!!! This is really fun for me because I went to SUU for college, it’s where my husband and I met, where we were living when we got married, and where our first baby was born! I have so many good memories in Cedar that I’m thrilled to be planning the next L I T T L E R E T R E A T there.

On Friday, March 20th, 5-8pm I will be joining forces with Recycled Consign & Design, and Kitchen eighty-eight to bring you a lovely evening of good food, drinks, and making.

On the agenda – are these driftwood mobiles!

This cozy retreat included an introductory calligraphy lesson by Melissa Esplin. Ridiculously delicious food by Kitchen eighty-eight, and the friendliest atmosphere supplied by the guests – thank you to everyone who joined us! xo.
