I won’t be around until Sat. sometime. My 12 year old son and I are heading off to the Creation Festival.
It will be just the two of us camping out for 3 days!
Camping in a hot tent, cold showers, smelly outhouses, humidity, perpetual bad hair days, no fresh brewed coffee, cheerios every morning for breakfast ( I found a good sale), no internet or laptop, sweat and perspiration are normal, grizzly unshaved legs, lack of sleep, dust everywhere……………………………………………………………………….
AND
Great christian music (like Switchfoot, Toby Mac, Casting Crowns, Third Day, Pillar etc..), inspirational speakers, endless time with my son, down time away from the rush of our often chaotic life, time with the Lord, some time to read a book, campfire cooking, ( I love the smell of a campfire), hiking up to the top of the moutain at the Agape Farm and looking down on the vast festival, X-treme sports, worship, new friends and special old friends………It should be a great time, and I am really looking forward to it!
If you think about us please pray for us, please pray that I do not get a dreaded migraine. I am prone to them, and the heat and humidity often make them worst. They tend to come monthly ( if you get my drift), so timing wise that would be this week. So I am praying for a migraine free week!
We leave bright and early tomorrow morning….coffee in hand and a cooler packed with a few dark chocolate treasures. 🙂 It should be a good time of Jesus and Dark Chocolate. LOL!
My prayers to you and your son! Have lots of fun… and, yum, enjoy that chocolate! And Jesus too!
oh, you are going to have so much fun! I was just telling Simms that I look forward to when Jeter and Barber are older so that we can go together as a family and enjoy. The last time Simms and I were there was 2000 – right before I was pregnant with Jeter!
I dunno. Sounds pretty fun to me. But showers are a good thing. Nice. Warm. Showers. 🙂
BTW-I linked ya! I just love your blog.:-)
I loved Creation. My husband and I were recently talking about how much fun it would be to go there again. Right now our kids are a little young for that: 18 months and one on the way! I went in 2000 with TCC and Simms (TCC is my older sister), and then in 2001, I went up for a day with my friends, and my husband (who was my boyfriend at the time).
Have a wonderful time, and I look forward to hearing about it!
Sammie Sue…………..You and T-Man: Have a great time! Really, try to relax and roll with the “punches.” This should be fun and relaxing because there is really no responsibility. Just ENJOY!
ILY, MOM
Sandy,
You are the winner from my Laundry Sample Give-Away!! LOL! So, email me your mailing address and I’ll get that to you.
Also, someone emailed me and told me that there is a filter for the water in the washer that gets clogged from sediment and such that once cleaned your water will flow again. You may want to look into that! If that is it, ughhhh…I’m going to be a little ticked that I bought a new washer! LOL!
We have something sorta like that called Cornerstone near us. What a great time you and your son are going to have! I will remember you in prayer!! Enjoy and post pics when you get back please. But not of your hairy legs ;o)
Be sure to check out the Summer Must-Have Solarveil Sling Give-Away on my blog! You could win it for you or a friend!
