Down From The Mountain

Hey! Sorry it's been awhile since we've updated. The family has spent the last couple of weeks at camp in the mountains of Colorado!

The first week, we went to Timberline Lodge in Winter Park with the seniors from Fayetteville and Springdale. It was awesome! Kerrie and Abe had their own room next door to Kerrie's girls and Abe would come over and have a sleepover with me and the guys for a couple of nights. Dad did a ton of mountain biking while mom and Abe hung out and mom went whitewater rafting while dad and Abe had a guy's day out. It took a little while for Abraham to get used to the altitude. For a few days he was breathing like a fish out of water, but after a bit he was sleeping like a...well, a baby. He's started sleeping through the night--sometimes even 12 hours!

The second week, we headed over to Ravencrest Chalet over at Estes Park for a camp with the sophomore and junior Fayetteville and Springdale students. Fortunately, the whole family got to stay together this week. We got to spend the Fourth of July watching the fireworks in Estes, which are amazing! It was fun to hang out with the students and leaders, and really fun to get to see the camp staff, who we know and love very much. It was a real treat for them to get to see Abraham. Many of them have been praying for us for a long time.

Our first real family trip was a great time! I've attached a ton of pictures. Thanks for your prayers!
