Quilt Camp!

 Noni and I got to go to quilt camp! She was asked to be the speaker and T agreed to hold down the fort so I could go with her. These camps are always fun and relaxing, but much more so when you're with the speaker because they get a nice hotel-like room, haha. 

Years ago we had gone to a scrap-booking camp when she was speaking and it was great so we tried another scrap-book camp and discovered the not-so-comfy camp bunks that the girls have to sleep in at summer camp. :P A bad night's sleep combined with the bathrooms in another building cuts down on the relaxation part of the trip, haha. But the speaker gets one of the nice apartments that the camp staff use during the summer so this trip was much better than the last one! 

We actually slept really well both nights and had a great time getting to know all the ladies there. It was beautiful weather the first two days so we would sew for a few hours and then go for walks in the Fall sunshine. It was so beautiful with all the trees changing colors. 

 

 

We walked down the lake more than once. So pretty! 

 

 

And Noni did an amazing job speaking to the women!!! She was engaging and funny, but also brought tears to many eyes! She gave her testimony Friday night and then Saturday she talked about the blessings of cancer. She did a beautiful job and so many of the women came and talked to her about how it spoke to them. Such a blessing! I am so proud to be able to call her my mom!

 

 

 While we were doing all that Daddy was running around with the girls. There was a park outing for the littles and Peaches' teacher was going to be there so she really wanted to go! He said they had a great time playing on the playground. 

 

 

 

But meeting Mrs. A was definitely the highlight!

 

 

Daddy bought them slushies afterwards and took them to Grandma and Grandpa's for a few hours between the park outing and one of Boo's volleyball games. 

 They definitely didn't like me being gone that long and called me multiple times, but all in all they did really well and had a great time with Daddy. 

 

 

And Noni and I had a wonderful time enjoying the Fall weather, quilting, and having great fellowship with each other and the women at camp. It was a wonderful weekend!!
