Mountain Views with Great Friends

This gorgeous weekend was even more beautiful because of who we shared it with. Our community small group took it's second annual retreat to the North Georgia Mountains. On Friday night we left out after enjoying a filling dinner at Loco's together. We made it up a little before 11 pm. The road to get to the neighborhood was a one-lane dirt road, which had us all telling spooky stories on the way through the winding trail. The map said 2.3 miles, but it took us about 15 minutes because of our turtle-like speed and dodging ditches. What were we in store for? Thank God it was perfect! The Snow Fort was fabulous and super accommodating. We stayed up late talking and snacking. At one point most of the ladies were asleep while the men were chatting away. Time for bed! The next day, we woke up to a yummy french toast casserole along with some filling bacon, sausage, and fruit! Nathan and Sarah did a great job.

Ryan turned 26 on the 26th! I am so happy he loved his presents - more workout stuff, a trip to the gym, and a dinner and yummy (red velvet from a local bakery) cake to enjoy! That's all he wanted. I love my giving, Godly, loving, hard-working, and handsome husband. Happy Birthday, Ryan!!

Life has been crazy since 2012 came. I can't complain because it's been a wonderful one . . . just BUSY! So, this weekend we are relaxing with our community group. Living life and sharing life with others makes us better. Our group from church has been together for a year and a half now, and we could not ask for more. Philippians 4:6 is a favorite of mine, and one I need to refer to from time to time. I get anxious, and when given the opportunity to relax it's a bit harder than I would like. That's why I am grateful this was my view this morning. How do you relax?? Have a super Saturday!

Sunday night

I couldn't ask for more, God. You are so giving and just. Thank you for your true love. This song played on Friday, and it's so powerful. Just close your eyes and listen!

Happy Wednesday!
