How wonderful that you were able to go and be blessed. I am looking forward to hearing more about from other fellow homeschoolers. Maybe one day, I might be able to go to one of these retreats, OR hold one where I am in our accommodation. I don't know, but my Lord Jesus knows. :)
Twist, twist...:)
Look at all those beautiful smiles, breathtaking scenery, comfy spots, robust coffee, and a twin-sandwich to boot! Well, Amy, for better or for worse, we are friends and I.am.blessed.
What an amazing summer you had! :)
