Family Camp 2013!

 "Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus."
-1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

Following on our Family Camp from 2011, Camp Director Daddy planned a fun-filled and fabulous weekend for us.  From an egg toss to sparklers to a hike at the river to a cookout to adventures with chocolate pudding to our own camp mini-sermon, we had a blessed and bonding weekend...  One of those weekends that leaves you wondering why you don't set aside a weekend simply for intentional family time more often!!!  (As you can see, we missed last year!  But we won't let that happen again!)

Take a look!

Opening Ceremony included sparklers... at a safe distance, haha.

Fun with sidewalk chalk!



 Yes, Meade bought us all Duck Dynasty t-shirts as our camp uniform!

Activity where the boys and I threw popcorn at Daddy's shaving-cream covered face to see how many we could get to stick!

 Walk at the River


Official Camp Pancakes! 

 Chocolate Pudding Adventures!  John showed Daniel the ropes!


Daddy B (or just "B" as Daniel now calls him) and Honey stopped by.

Great Daddy John was our official camp pastor and gave a wonderful talk about Jesus giving us His peace and directing us despite the storms that may surround us.

"
Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go."-Joshua 1:7

  2. Such nice photos. I liked the photos a lot. I am also thinking to host a family dinner party. But instead of a house party I would prefer booking an outdoor party spot. I was just wondering if you have any suggestions regarding the best Chicago event venues.
