Weekend Retreat






This has been a wonderful weekend! Nathan and I have found throughout our years of marriage that when we feel the weight of the world the best thing for us is to go outdoors. So Nate came up with the great idea to go rent a cabin by Smith Lake. Now it's really only about 10 minutes away from us but it felt like a million miles away. It was so nice and peaceful! The girls thought it was awesome. We cooked hamburgers and hotdogs and peach cobbler. The girls had fun throwing rocks into the lake and playing in the woods. I truly wish we could of stayed longer. We got home just in time to watch General Conference. Wow, it was so just what I needed. I feel refeshed and invigorated and ready for anything.

Sounds like a fun weekend. It's always nice to get away from the normal daily routines even if it's only 10 minutes away.
