This year at rendezvous they did so many fun things for the kids. They carved pumpkins and played lots of games. Their favorite part was sitting around the fire, telling stories. For the adults they had organized shoots and lots of interesting historical presentations--'How to skin a beaver'-I missed that one and I felt bad, I really did want to see it.
Good friends-Brock and Shannon and their beautiful family.
A game of tug-of-war.
Saturday night we had a potluck dinner with everyone in the camp. This picture doesn't do it justice, the food was so beautiful. Yummy cakes and pies and beautiful breads and stews, it was wonderful to enjoy all of this in the fall weather. Speaking of weather, it was just perfect for camping. The leaves were amazing and the nights were clear and full of stars. A very much needed weekend. I am so grateful for these times to slow down just a bit, to step back from busy life, and sit around a camp fire and realize my blessings. We had a wonderful time and it was great to enjoy it with loved ones. A great time was had by all.Earlier this week, Emma and Abigail's school had reserved a local corn maze for the students and their families. We had a great time running thru the corn maze and getting completely lost.
