There are so many things that I want to share with you about the trip. I don't even know where to start. Maybe I should begin with the amazing woman who invited me to New Orleans in the first place? Without her, this trip would not have happened and I owe her so much. Nancy Lee met me at the NAWIC Regional Convention in Tunica this past April where I was invited to speak. This summer Nancy called me and asked if I would come to NOLA in the fall. Neither one of us realized it at the time but her invitation would be what kept my dreams within my reach during the most difficult time in my life. It was if God had handed her a rope, told her to hold on and then He wrapped it around me so, that as my life was once again tossed around, me and my dreams would survive. This trip to New Orleans is the foundation on which God will fulfill His purpose for me and forever, Nancy and the entire NAWIC Chapter #339, will be a sweet reminder of how good God is. Nancy, thank you. NAWIC Chapter #339, thank you. I will never forget and when I come through with Wynonna, on my way to the SuperDome, we are going to stop by and pick all of you up and you'll be front and center for it all!
Deb, Melanie and my Kasey, (affectionately known as my crew), I will never travel alone. You made this moment in my life so unforgettable. I love you so very much and I am so thankful that God saw fit to rearrange my plans so that I wouldn't have to do this alone. Laurie, (my new best friend), you made sure that there would be no pressure on me at all (not!). I hope that the time we shared together made a difference. I hope that there are more great moments in your life and less stressful ones. I hope that you know what a difference meeting you made in my life. Oh, and I love my bracelet! Thank you.
Tonight, I am back home, sitting at my desk, so thankful for the trip, the women, the laughs and the memories. My NOLA road trip was exactly what I needed. Start to finish, I loved it all (ok, except for the Bourbon Street thing). Y'all take care. Keep reading your passion cards. Keep enjoying your days. I'll see you along with my crew again soon - we'll probably be on Wynonna's bus! Nancy stay by that phone - soon as I hear from her - NAWIC Chapter #339 will be the first to know - thank you again for everything. You ladies rocked my world!!!
I love you all!
Save NOLA!!!
Good night.
