Christmas and Camp

December 25
Christmas was a whirlwind of family activities. We had such a great day. We did make a trip to the airport to pick up sister and J. They flew in from his parents house in South Carolina. While waiting for them, we watched the other families find and greet their loved ones. It was a great reminder of just how blessed we are.

Winter Camp
We left our church parking lot at 6:30a.m. and headed to Wolf Ridge, North Carolina. We had such a great trip. Most of our crew had never done any sort of skiing or snow boarding before. We definitely had a lot of laughs... at others expense. The best part was that we all busted and embarrassed ourselves that it didn't matter. My best bust was not coming down a huge slope, but simply trying to get on the conveyor belt to get to the top of the bunny hill. I really could have just walked up it and in hindsight I should have. I was definitely humbled.










This was a wonderful trip. To get away in the gorgeous mountains, to look around and see everything covered in snow, snow ball fights, sweet busts, victoriously making it down the mountain, wonderful worship times, great challenges from the word, late night talks in family groups, hours of togetherness in the rented vans, countless funny stories, dealing with high school drama....it was all well worth the little sleep, countless planning hours, and all the hard work that was put into this.

D and I were talking and decided we have the best job in the world....well, he does, I just get to tag along.We get to go to all kinds of fun places and hang out with some pretty awesome teenagers. Hearing their positive feedback and their desire to want to grow in their relationship with the Lord is so worth it all.























We are so grateful for the opportunities that God has given us in youth ministry!
To God alone be the glory!
