Rena,
I attended Sue Couchman's retreat last weekend & wanted to just let you know how much my group enjoyed your place. Sue is a sweet lady and did a great job. We look forward to returning in the fall. We are spreading the word in West Fort Worth about your wonderful facility! Great job with all the details.
Sincerely,

Wanted to drop you a line and tell you that my kids put my scrapbox together for me after lunch on Thanksgiving.
It took them around 3 hours so not bad at all.
This thing is amazing. Sturdy and roomy. I am not done but have filled a little over half of it.
I was sure I would have it packed to the max and not so.
Thanks and hope to crop sometime with you.

We had an absolutely fantastic time at RRR last weekend!! I am not exaggerating when I say that everyone who was there has asked if they can come back next year. I know we’ll have others who want to come too and hopefully we’ll find time for a Spring Time retreat as well. :o
I’ve spoken with Kelly and we’re both excited about your Hostess Retreat in December! Please put us both down as “YES!! We’re coming!” and Thank You SO much for the invitation. What a wonderfully generous gesture for your hostesses.
Thanks!

I had such a great time this past weekend. Your place is so beautiful and was more than I could have expected. You have some wonderful friends and a huge scrappy family. Not to mention, I ate so well all weekend! LOL. I cannot wait to come back. It was just the R&R I needed. Hopefully I can come once more before the baby arrives.

First let me say Thank you for having the perfectfacility for a retreat! I was with Anne Barnaby's group last weekend and had a ball. I owned my own B&B sold it in August and did retreats ~ It was fun to finally go to one! You have definitely done your home work and created a wonderful spot for women to come and scrap book! You are amazing and certainly have the gift of hospitality! I hope that you continue to be blessed by what appears to be a wonderfully successful business. And Bonnie gave the BEST massage...she was wonderful!
Thanks so much...Looking forward to hearing from you. And I will also be contacting you for the "wall art" that was great and just what I was looking for for our game-room!

Hi Rena! I was a first-time scrapper at a retreat in October. Having so many tools and "goodies" at my disposal made it easy and fun. I made a small book for each of my children. I'm afraid this could be addictive! By the way, I got those pesky PTA cards done later that week too. Thank you so much and I'm sure our group will be back.

Our weekend at Rockin' R was fantastic! Everyone who joined us this weekend is already planning when they can come back. Comments were "It is the best retreat center we have ever attended!"..."We can' wait to come again"..."We can't wait to go back and tell our friends what they missed". This was my third time since the June opening to attend a Rockin' R retreat with Rena. And I have to say that it just keeps getting better and better. Rena has anticipated our every need and then given us the best! I highly recommend this facility to EVERYONE! Just come once and you will LOVE it and want to keep on coming!

Rena maintains a nice supply of products, papers, embellishments for those you "must have", and provides comfortable chairs and workspace, a journaling station, cutters, Cricut machine to use while there .. so convenient. Once you check in you can spend as much time working on your project, visiting, sleeping, etc. ... all under one roof. It is close to Temple just in case you want to go into town. The accommodations are well-appointed, comfortable and the meals are all good. She is well organized and the Rockin R Retreat Center is a lovely place. I look forward to the next great event.

I did 52 pages plus finished my daughter's 2nd Grade School Days Album. It was a absolutely fantastic weekend. I got a lot done and even managed to rest. The food was great and the extra perks were great. I cannot wait to see you again in October.
Thank you again for a fantastic weekend!
