Founders Circle 2014 Part 1

I've just returned for a week of Founder's Circle and the Advisory Board Retreat.  My heart is so full from the pampering and catching up with friends and my brain so overwhelmed with creativity from these amazing ladies!
I've got a lot to share, so I'm going to do it over several days - or else you may be here for a long time! *Ü*
 
 
The entrance of the hotel set the stage for a wonderful Christmas themed Founder's Circle.
 
 
Inside was warm and cozy.  The Gathering Place was decorated so beautifully, and not a single detail was left out.  This is a picture of the Candy Bar they set up for us.  We got to keep the mug we filled over and over all week with many more jars of candy than what is here - they were placed all over the room.

 
 
 Our first evening we were divided into groups that we would eat and do a couple of activities with throughout the days.  Our group was called the Fa La La La Las.  Everyone had cute Christmas names.  I love that they divide us up so you meet and get to know people you may not have had the opportunity to otherwise.
 
Our first group activity was to build a Gingerbread House.  I must say, we kinda rocked ours.

 
 
Following that we were treated to an amazing Christmas dinner of ham, potato casserole, green beans and of course bread pudding - it was so yummy!  The room and the table settings were absolutely breathtaking!!
