The Beautiful Thing About Camping

 
 
What a special group of people this is.
 
 
Whether we're spitting,
 
 
smiling,
 
 
making music,
 
 
boating,
 
 
or working, we are striving to glorify God. No, we're not perfect, but Christ is evident in these people's lives, and what a blessing it was to spend the weekend with each one of them!
 
 
On our last day, Aidan gave his heart to Jesus and was baptized in the lake. What a day of rejoicing for us, but even more so for God and all of heaven!
 
 
Oh, and did I mention that we have fun?

      Not a family camp goes by that I don't reminisce about Camp Wilkerson! Fun times, with all of us together. ;-)

      You're welcome, Elanee! There's nothing quite like getting to spend an entire weekend with brothers and sisters in Christ!

    Oh, by the way, would it be okay if we kept the group pictures and the one of you and me on the lake? If we use them on our blog we can credit you if you want.

      LOL! I was trying to get the mop from Uriah and he was going to hand it to me when Susanna came over with the camera and said for us all to smile. I did what she said but photo-bomber Uriah obviously did not. I thought Jared had posed too but it doesn't look like he did in this one. Oh the craziness that come out on the last day of camp. ;)

      Yes! I think one years advanced notice is good enough for a mop. ;)
