Great weekend

I'll have more pictures when one of my dear buddies Linda shares her pics, but for now, here is are a few photos I stole from another buddy, Beth, of our time at Pendosis Holiday Village.

Our entire group. I think there were 23 couples in total for the weekend. Our Chapel has a variety of services Traditional, Mass, Gospel, and the Contemporary Service which we attend at 6pm. The majority of people seemed to come from the Gospel service, but there were a few people there from our 6pm service, and some people who aren't church attenders at all. Can you find Wendi and JB?
We can actually see these mountains from our home on a clear day. But here they are up close and beautiful!

The building we had our meals and conference sessions in.

The front gates

Another view of the moutains. See the building on the far right? Our building was right behind that. It was located in the farthest back corner of the complex -- not too easy for a still quite gimpy Wendi and two little boys with very short legs.

So quaint.

Another beautiful shot. We hope to return here when the weather warms up with some families for a hiking adventure. The guys will hike and the gals can hang out by the pool!

Once I steal a bunch of pictures from Shane and Linda, I'll have some more to share with you, but for now I'll just tell you that we are home from a trip most of you had no idea we took. Our fam just got back from a great weekend at a resort about an hour from here where the Base Chapel hosted a marriage retreat for couples. Included was free childcare! Can't really beat that. JB and I had a wonderful weekend just having the opportunity to talk uninterrupted. We really reconnected. We also had fun with friends like Micah & Sarah and Shane & Linda (who had a very productive weekend -- they came home with two new family members ... dogs!) More to come on this fantastic time.
