 Friday afternoon check-in lodge & received a package for the entire retreat.

We went back to our room until time for our pajama movie "Steel Magnolia".

There were snacks to eat while watching the movie but I was too full to eat. 

Could not believe that I enjoyed watching an old movie with a bunch of strangers. 

After the movie, everyone retired to their rooms for the night.

Saturday morning we ate a light breakfast followed by painting class from 8-9:30AM.
