Mount Hermon

We enjoyed a wonderful week at Mount Hermon! It was a treat to be there again with my parents. It gave us some special time to share with them. The week was also special because my good friends, Julie and Jen, were there as well. It was so nice to catch up and to see our kids playing together. The girls enjoyed Day Camp - well, Allie enjoyed it once she was there - and Nathan loved going to "school" each morning and evening. During the afternoons, we went to the fieldhouse for board games, ping-pong or basketball, swam in the pool three times, and enjoyed special snacks at the fountain. We were spoiled with wonderful food and good fellowship. The speakers were excellent and we learned so much. We are so thankful that we can continue this tradition of family camp at Mount Hermon each summer. As we packed to come home, Beth asked, "Why do we only stay here for one week?" She wasn't ready to leave just yet. It is such a special place for our family.

Amen to that! Does it typically take about a week at home to recover from the week at Mt. Hermon? :)

I like reading your posts and reliving what was a super vacation. I'll email you some pictures soon...

Love, Jen
