Family Reset

We just got home today from Pine Cove Chimney Point Family Camp. One of the dad's last year said it's like a New Year for their family - a kind of reset - and I could not agree more. To say this place is special is true, but special just isn't a big enough word to truly capture what this place means to me and our family and all the families who got to experience it this week. This is our one big family vacation for the year, and I would choose it again and again - and again. To be in a place for a week with these college kids who love our kids so well, have wonderful speakers year after year, and get to see old and new faces is just such a blessing to us and our kids. After the craziness of this past year, this week was MUCH needed. We saw God work in the lives of our kids, us, and many others this week, and it was amazing. Until next year, Pine Cove... Now, I will leave you with a zillion pictures from the week.
