Naturally high...

I really just wanted to check in and say that i am here...i am still breathing...

but i am exhausted.

Happiness wears me out.

This is the only picture i have of the entire weekend spent with my sweet friends
{Jill, Martha and Kim}

that came from out of town.

the.only.one

gasp

gulp

sigh

but i am one lucky girl....because that cute girl on the right...is a photographer

and she took hundreds of photo's of the weekend...

and of saturday night's Inspired event.
Truly an Inspiring evening...filled with wonderful women.
It was amazing.


I can't wait to tell you about all the fabulous sponsors that

sponsored wonderful gifts for the guests that night...

I can't wait to tell you about the people...

the food...

the creativity ...

and most of all...

The Inspiration.

So hang on a few more days...please..

i promise it'll be worth the wait.

Until then though....

I have a bunch of new c.d's mixed with all of

my new songs....so just leave a comment and i'll

pick a handful of you to get one.

{and yes...i love my button hat...and wear it ALL THE TIME}

What a great photo of you and your dear friends. Women friends are what sustain me. I still have friends all the way back to the fifth grade. That's not as far back for you, but still, I can't say enough about what my friends have meant in my life. I love the music you play on your blog, by the way. Can't wait to see your photos and hear about the details of your girlfriend weekend.

Room Service ~ Decorating 101 said...

You gals look too cute. I love your music. I saw where you did a guest post and there was no music, it was so differant. Most the time, I prefer "no music", on blogs, but not yours. It fits perfectly.

Laurel said...

Kasey I can't wait to hear about it. Wish I could have attended....

And love the hat! I would wear it all the time too.

You're just too cute for words....now go take a nap.

How great to be exhausted from happiness? Throw a little my way, please?? lol Everytime I see St. Charles I get a jump and then remember it's St. Charles IL not MO - our St. Charles main street's not to be missed, just wondering if you've see those cool shops and cobblestone street??

Anyway - if you're not too tired I'd love to invite you and your friends to 58 Cherry Lane at my blog - just for fun.

Happy Holidays and wishing you more fun and button hats. I love buttons, but I can't seem to wear a hat, is hat hair a phobia? :)
