Weekend O Fun

Jason went to the annual Harris family reunion in Comanche, TX last weekend while I was at the women's retreat in Pine Cove, TX. Julia and Johnathan got to play with their cousins, Mallory and Morgan. And they got to spend time with their BMom and Pop.

Here are pictures from his weekend:























And pictures from my weekend...we went to Canton on the way to Pine Cove on Friday (left at 6 AM, thanks to Jen Bishop being obsessed with getting to Canton when they opened....mission accomplished!). There, we saw some pretty interesting scooter concoctions.

We were totally making fun of all the young people renting scooters, only to find that at the end of the fifteen thousand two hundred and twenty two miles of shopping grounds, WE were the silly ones and those people were making fun of us walkers! Here's a pic of a husband and wife scooting around, well they were actually going negative two miles per hour. He had a trailer hooked up to his scooter and they had tacked down a white plastic lawn chair to the back of it, equipped with a basket underneath for her purse and purchases. So cute! And then we have the classic John Deere Scooter. Very clever.




























The retreat was called Tea Time in The Woods (the reason for the crazy hats). We canoed, played team building games, had lots of free time, learned the Lord wants us to pour our lives out to others (the tea pot theme!), we got to know other gals in the church better, squeezed in a game of wahoo, we did the zip line (thought I was going to die!) and rested rested rested (something I cherished every moment of!).

Let me just say something about the zip line video. Even though it may look like only a few feet off the ground....it WASN'T! And although it may look like we are just slightly flying by.....we WEREN'T! We were FLYING.FAST!
