Doodlebug Scrapbooking Retreat

This weekend I along with Misty, Sara, and Nicole attended the Doodlebug's annual scrapbooking retreat! What an amazing time. The retreat starts on Friday Night and ends on Sunday afternoon. Although the Friday night is optional. It's a weekend filled with scrapbooking, classes, food, fun, friends, good times, and very little sleep! We spend the entire day scrapping. We scrap until 3 a.m. Well there are a few break in there too. We have the opportunity to take classes, snack, and of course we stop for meals!

We arrived at VUJC around 9 a.m. on Saturday and unloaded all of our supplies. We then searched through our goody bags to see all the good that we got. And then set up our space for the weekend. This crop is the mother of them all! You get a full 8 feet of space all to your self!! Perfect for spreading out and being able to find what you need when you need it!  After we were all settled in we got started!

We scrapped all day and well into the night. We only stopped to eat, to snack, to potty, and to go to the store for a shopping spree!! Lunch was catered by The Millhouse and supper was catered by Sanders! It was all so yummy! And the shopping spree at The Doodlebug was so much fun! Misty's name was drawn to be the first group to go! We were so excited! Even tough we didn't really need anything we went and bought all kinds of goodies!!  We scrapped until 3a.m. before calling it and night and getting a little shut eye!

We were up and at it again at 7 a.m! We continued to scrap until noonish, only stopping for breakfast! Around noon we started packing it all it and the prizes were drawn and then we headed home!

I think got 22 pages done which is great, but still not enough. haha All in all is was a great weekend and I look forward to going again next year!
