Today my mom, sister, and aunt treated me to a wonderful trip to Elegant Farmer. Oh it was so sweet, time with people I love, time in the sun in God's beautiful creation. Sometimes there are glimpses of Eden, what God intended our home to be. Sometimes there are glimpses of Heaven, where we will be in wonderful fellowship with one another in the presence of our Creator. Something so simple as a day trip to an apple orchard wouldn't seem to be such an amazing event. But it was today. We just hung out. I loved it. The kids had a great time, we went home to Mom and Dad's and enjoyed more time together before we all went on our way again, splitting up, back to our husbands and homes. Left with cherished memories of a few hours together.

We've been there before, way back in 2008... Look how little they were!
Is any pleasure on earth as great as a circle of Christian friends by a good fire?
