A fun little gift to give....

I was sooooo excited about going to BGC to serve on the staff.  I wanted to make a gift of thanks for Melody and Kathy.  This is what I came up with.

More from BGC....

The best part of Brave Girl Camp are the relationships you come home with.  Here are some pics of the beautiful women I had the pleasure of getting to know.

 Everyone of us has a story.  Everyone of us needs to be heard.  Everyone of us deserves happiness.  God bless us ALL.

Some more memories from BGC

Here are some more wonderful memories from Brave Girls Camp, a week ago.  Oh how I miss each of the wonderful women that I had the honor of spending time with and getting to know.  Life can be so good if we let it!

This is all of us on the very last night...Look at how happy we all look!

Our beautiful home for that week....

Then when you enter, it gets even more magical....

A little peek....

Here's a little peek at what I've been working on for the last couple of days.

Fall is in the air....

Fall is definately in the air around here...it's beginning to get that festive feeling that comes every year at this time!

Halloween is just around the corner-BOO!

Brave Girl Camp October 2011

I am home now from an AMAZING week, feeling so blessed.

Somehow God has placed me with the most amazing souls.  Our week was full of laughter and tears, music and singing, crafts and yummy food, walks in the woods,  healing and miracles.  I'll post more pics as they come in over the week.

There is definately something magical that happens when we are all brought together and open our hearts to one another.  It is truely life changing, in the most wonderful way.

Can't wait to post more......xo

A little trip....

I have the most wonderful trip coming up.  I leave on Sunday to fly to Boise Idaho, then from there to Beautiful McCall Idaho.  I can not wait!   I 'll be heading to Brave Girls Camp, but this time I won't be a guest, I'll be serving the new Brave Girls!  I know it will be amazing and I can't wait to share the pictures and stories when I get back.  I'm just so honored to get to go and be part of the staff.  I can't stop smiling!

Here is a link to the Brave Girls site, incase you would like to check it out.  They are wonderful women, with a message that I hope the whole world gets to hear one day.  Brave Girls Rock!

Here's a few pics from my trip last year.  It was magical!

Just a message for the day....

BE WHO YOU DREAM TO BE.....

Wishing you a wonderful day!  Love, Kelly

Check this out!!!!

My friend Julie shared this blog on her facebook site.  It's so wonderful, I just had to share it here too.  I'm definately going to be making some of these up!  They're perfect!  I like the idea of putting a encouraging note inside also.

Also, I think I will make up some bags for the homelss out there that have dogs with them.
