Our good friends Patrick and Keri Harmon live in North Augusta, where Pattick serves as the youth pastor at First Baptist Church NA. Patrick asked Bert to be the speaker for their youth fall retreat at Lookup Lodge (just a little above TR) last weekend. We had such a great weekend!! They had about 70 students come up for the retreat, the weather was absolutely beautiful, and Bert did such a great job!
Keri is one of my very best friends, so I'm always excited about spending time with her!
On Saturday afternoon they had free time for the students and Bert and I decided to take a paddle boat out on the beautiful pond/lake. It was fun and peaceful! I love spending time with my hubby!
It was encouraging to see the Lord working in the students' lives. They really were a great group of kids and we really enjoyed spending time with them.
Mimi and Papa offered to keep the girls for us so that I could go on the retreat with Bert. We really appreciated their help and it sounds like they had a fun weekend!! On Saturday they took the girls to Toccoa Falls. Emily loved it but they said Hannah was a little scared when she came around the corner and saw the falls. If you click on the picture below you can see her crying...cutie!:)
Papa Stan has to work most every Saturday, but he took of this particular Saturday just to spend time with his girls. Hannah was fine as long as her Papa was holding her.:)
After naps they took the girls up to my parents' church where the youth group was selling pumpkins to raise money for some of their activities.

Thanks, Mama and Daddy, for taking such good care of our girls! It was a fun weekend for everyone!
