So, we had our Holiday Boutique. And it was so much fun! Are boutiques supposed to be fun? I suppose most women attend boutiques to shop. But anytime Heartline girls get together, there is always lots of FUN involved!

Although there were also treasures to be had… from wonderful vendors, like Bridget and Amy here, who were selling creative, one-of-a-kind gifts.

The highlight of the boutique was the themed auction baskets, created with love by our small groups, to benefit our Spring Retreat scholarship fund. The bidding was competitive, but polite and in the end Kathleen was the proud owner of the gift card wreath and Audrea went home with the Family Game Night basket. Of course, there were many more “winners” as every themed basket went home with a proud owner. Thank you to all of our Bible study small groups who created such beautiful baskets and generously donated their time and resources, so that together we can make it possible for more women to attend our retreat.

Huge thanks to Heather, Cathryn and Brenda for planning such festive fun. I photo bombed here, but truly they did all the work. I must have jumped in the picture to let them know, on behalf of all of us, how much we appreciate their efforts to bless us with holiday cheer and a wonderful event to benefit our retreat scholarship fund.
