All in a week!


Tim and I were blessed to go to a Family Life Marriage Conference this weekend. We are sad to say we have never been to a marriage conference in almost 8 years of marriage. The boys went to Tim's parents and had a blast! Something that I learned this weekend is I need to always put God first, Tim second, and the kids third. Also, we should never stop dating each other. We are looking forward to going to more marriage conferences and getting away for a few days to spend together.

Now we are off to our friends lake house that we go to a few times a year to get away as a family. When we go to the lake house we get to spend lots of time together (there is no cable TV or Internet). We play games, read books, go on walks, fish, eat at fun little restaurants, and laugh a lot.

After we leave the lake house we are going to Mounds, Ok where Tim grew up, for the Knox Family Reunion. The boys have looked forward to this for a long time. The plan is for all the boys to sleep outside in tents and the girls to sleep in the house=)

(This is a picture of the boys practicing putting up the tent before we go)

As you can tell this is going to be a wonderful week for the Knox family. Tim and I spent alone time together, we will have family time at the lake house, and extended family time in Mounds, Ok, all in a week.

When was the last time you got away and what are things you like doing with your family?
