We're Home!

We are home at last. Being gone for almost 3 weeks is too long for me. But we are so thankful to God for all the blessings recieved while traveling.

Here are some pictures of our trip. I wish I had gotten more, but I was so tired or busy (as well as my co-photographer) that not much got done in that area.

The silver yucca just east of Albuquerque.

We saw our first tarantula at a rest stop near the Texas border.





Emily busy creating a dinosaur.



Windmills in Oklahoma.



Back to civilization.



St. Louise.



The Dog.


We spent Sabbath afternoon at our favorite place - the Ludington State Park.
Being Sisters!


The more solemn crew.

The LAKE sisters

Jack gets into everything --including pictures. He loves having his picture taken. Whenever you pull out the camera he comes and sits in front of you.

The Beautiful Lake.

Dad attracts the animal. Jack loves him, although the feeling may not be mutual.

















We got apples while in MI. Here we are enjoying "real" apples.









IN Family Campmeeting

We went to camp early so we could get a start on cooking. Here are some photos of us deep in food.
This container was use for granola. We filled it to the top and used most of it by the time camp was over.



"Snitching"


Thankfully, we didn't use all these onions. I would have hatted to see what would have become of the kitchen staff if we had cut them all up. As it was, we suffered stinging eyes every day before camp started.











Lauralea was a big help to us, as were many others. We appreciated everyone, from the dishwashers, to the servers, to those who just thanked us for the food.








Making fudge.

The inspector.


Adding the final touch.





Making cheese sauce. I don't know how many batches I made, but it seemed as though that was my job the whole time.

Coconut milk makes everything better!

Spinach for Lasagna.

The other things we had to prepare alot of were tomatos and cookies. People went through them as though they grew on trees outside the kitchen.

Playing freez tag. I was glade that we got to play this year. Last year it rained the whole time, and the year before we only made it to one game.


The Sabbath morning rush.




We had so much fun, but I am thankful to be home.

Dad, Mom, Ashley, and Emily left yesterday for WY to pick up our new business equipment and inventory, so pray for them as they travel.

God bless!
