TOFW

I had the awesome opportunity over this past weekend to go to Time Out for Women in Nashville, TN. My friend Anna and I drove up there Friday afternoon and attended the Friday evening event and then stayed overnight and went to the big Saturday session as well. I'd never been to a Time Out before and I was amazed at the quality of the presentations. I spent about 70% of my time there crying (in a good way) because the Spirit was so strong. I missed Kevin and the boys but it was so nice to get spend time with Anna and have a little vacation.

Our trip was also extraordinarily special because Anna got a call a few weeks ago asking if she was interested in going to this Time Out and if she would be willing to give one of the presenters a ride from Nashville to see her family in Atlanta. The lady said that if we could do that, the presenter would provide two free tickets for us at will call. So Anna called me to make sure I could commit to go and we jumped on the opportunity. 

What we didn't realize was that the presenter was actually giving us her "Guest" tickets. Which meant when we got to the Convention Center we were escorted through the audience to reserved seats...in the SECOND ROW! We were sitting with the presenters and their families and friends! On Saturday we got to eat lunch with them and to kind of formally meet everyone. So fun! Then of course we got to road trip it up with the lady we were taking to see her family. Her stories are so amazing; some tragic, some inspirational, some HILARIOUS! It was awesome to get to talk with her with Anna.

Anyway, if you've never been to a Time Out for Women, Oh oh oh, you should go! Even if you left our "Guest" experiences out of the equation, the time and money were SO worth it. There are still a bunch of stops on the 2011 tour. Go to the site and check it out. I definitely would love to go again one day.
