Wow, what a summer it's been already! Dan and I along with Kevin and Carolina Dodge took our youth group to San Jose, CA for the Mennonite USA convention. What a blast! There were 12 of us total that went. We left Sat. June 30 and returned Sat July 7. The convention didn't start until Mon. night so we had some extra time on our hands. We went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium Saturday night.
Sunday we got to spend in San Francisco! I got to drive one of the vans, I was following Kevin and in order to keep up with him ended up going through only... about ...ummm... 9 stop lights!!
Then Monday we went to the Winchester Mystery Mansion and the Henry C Cowell state park to see the Redwoods! Both were a lot of fun and rather spectacular!
The convention was awesome! Great speakers! Great Music! Just so much fun all around! I slept in the most comfortable bed with feather pillows! We also just happen to have a great group of kids in our youth group who are a blast to hang out with!
My girls went to Indiana to stay with Dan's Uncle Blake and Aunt Marianne. Who took such good care of our girls. They had so much fun swimming, riding horses, feeding goats, singing and more. Madisyn even told Miranda (Dan's cousin) at the beginning of the week "I thought I would miss my Mommy, but I don't". Don't worry, my feelings weren't hurt. I'm just glad they had such a good time!
I tried to upload some pictures on here, but we back woods folk can't get high speed internet yet and are stuck with dial up. So maybe I'll post some pictures later when I have an hour :P
