So this weekend was one of those trips that I will never forget...girl gabbing in the car, a wonderful message from God's Word, night owl heart to hearts, great food, some pretty hilarious stories, and a luxury 1.6 million dollar cabin! What a great time!
We ended up changing our plans last minute from driving an RV and camping to renting an awesome
minivan (fits 8 people comfortably) and a vacation home (a real log cabin) in Minnesota. The drive went pretty quick going up as we played the
UnGame and talked
a lot. There were 5 people from my
church Shepherding Group and 3 girls from my friends
Sara's work...man were they awesome! Once we got there on Friday night, we went straight to the
Beth Moore conference, stopped at
Applebees after (around 10:30) and then headed to our cabin...I think we went to bed that night around 1:30 or 2:00. The Friday night conference was amazing and was titled "Between a Rock and a Hard Place." It was based on Hebrews 12. The worship was awesome too.
We left the cabin Sat morning at about 6:30 and went back to downtown Minneapolis. The conference went until noon and then we took the light rail to the
Mall of America...we had lunch there, shopped for about an hour and rode a couple rides (man that was hilarious). Then we stopped at Target for some pizza's to cook, pop, and some birthday stuff for our friend Sara and went back to the cabin. We talked, cried, laughed and hung out in luxury until about 2:30. The cabin is for sale right now for 1.6 million dollars...there was a huge pond, gorgeous scenery, an awesome kitchen and all the normal fancy things in cabins that size. What an experience.
We left Sunday morning about 11:00 and drove back mainly napping. Man was it a blast. I was greeted by a not so happy Jonathan who realized the minute I came back that I was gone that whole time and cried it out right away. We have since then slowly got back to our normal clingy ways and a messy house. The kids did great with John and Caleb wanted to call him the whole day on Monday because he missed him so much. I will be making a fun slide show probably on Thursday to share with you all of the trip. We hope to go again next year somewhere together - maybe Florida (We hope you can make that one Allison because we really missed you and Sandra)!
