Field Trip!

 
The girls and I enjoyed a glorious day in the PA countryside at Camp Sankanac with our COMPASS group earlier in the week (Tuesday, May 3).  (COMPASS is our home school co-op.)  First we enjoyed a short group time about plants...it was also a devotional parallel for our life with Christ...nicely done and meaningful.  Then the kids broke up into groups and headed off to learn more about plants and enjoy a nature hike.  Meanwhile, the ladies hung out on lawn chairs and blankets and enjoyed uninterrupted conversation...a rare treat and blessing :)

It was time for games and lunch after the nature programs. We enjoyed our picnic and I enjoyed watching my girls have so much fun!  


Then it was time for a hayride.  I passed on climbing into the hay wagon and being pulled around on bumpy roads...considering that I was almost 38 weeks pregnant :)  I happily waved to the girls...and then sat down again.

The girls very favorite part came after the hayride...rowboats out on French Creek.  Once again, I bowed out of the fun and just took pictures.  My dear friend, Christina, bravely manned a rowboat so our kids could enjoy the creek...thanks so very much, Christina...it was the highlight of their day!




Christina was a rowboat rowing machine!


It was a delightful day...fabulous fun and friends...wonderful weather...and our Glorious God!




Have a blessed day~
