We had a blast!




Kayla and Allen the "Fire Starter's"






We had a blast! We made it back from our camping trip in one piece and with much needed relaxation. Everyone had a good time and a relaxed time. The fellowship and quiet time was truly a blessing. The cabin was beautiful and the inside was so spacious. It had a loft with a queen size bed and a twin bed and a huge round window to look out of. The girls had one cabin and the guys had another. We were right on the lake and the geese would swim right up to us so Jen threw bread to them. The lake was beautiful and so quiet. Allen and Kayla made the fires at night and had a lot of fun doing it. I like camping and I think the only way to camp is to stay in a cabin, not really, I like camping in a tent also.

I got up early every morning and saw the dew was coming off the lake. It was something watching it lightly dissipate into the air as the sun arose. Just the quietness of it all made me think of how God is such an awesome God to have thought of all this beauty around us, and sometimes we forget what it is like because we get so busy in our everyday life. It reminds me that event thought we are building homes and lives for people here to take time to smell a flower or look at a sunset. God is in everything that is created and yet sometimes we miss it. Needless to say the Lord spoke with me in everything I saw while camping. I would like to say to anyone reading this to take time out of your busy day and look at the beauty around you.

Until next time we love you all.... Allen and Dovie
