This past Friday and Saturday I attented the Ladies Retreat at Grindstone Lake Bible Camp in Sandstone, MN. It was such a great time. It was fun being a camper again and spending the night in those cabins. I thought the best part was being able to spend time with my sisters-in-law, Susann and Beth, who I don't get to see as often as I'd like (Mom too!)! Mom was one of the three speakers for the weekend. She did an amazing job (would you expect anything different from my mom?!) Mom is also on the planning committee for the retreat and does ALL the decorating. Once again, she did an amazing job! My mom really is the most talented woman I know!
After I got home Daniel told me he overheard Lillian thinking outloud to herself one day. She said, "Mommy is sleeping in a cabinet? -- That's so small!" Kids say and think the craziest things! Daniel never even told her that I was actually sleeping in a cabin and NOT in a cabinet! The poor girl thought I had been sleeping in a tiny cabinet the whole time!
This was my first time ever away overnight from Rebecca. I have only been away overnight from Lillian when Abigail was born and away overnight from Abigail when Rebecca was born! What an exciting life I live! HA! I couldn't even think of the last time I had eaten a meal without having to feed a child (or two or three!) at the same time! It was really a nice "break."
I don't think the girls minded me being gone at all! They had such a fun time with Daniel. They ended up going mini golfing here in St. Croix Falls and also to a park on Friday afternoon. Then on Saturday they went to the "Wheels and Wings" show in Osceola, WI. (they even packed a lunch!). I think they're going to want me to go away more often! Here are some pictures Daniel took of their fun time together ...

Packed in and ready to go golfing!
The next Tiger!
Lillian's favorite "car" of the show was this purple jeep because it's just like Daddy's (only Daddy's isn't purple!) Lillian is standing on the far side of the jeep.
The effects of spending a day out on the town with Daddy!
I think Daddy likes his girls :)

What a brave guy Daniel was to venture out with all three alone. :)
