Busy and Fun Weekend

No pictures to post of the weekend...we were too busy having fun to be snapping pictures. Saturday the girls spent the day with Pa and Grandma while Ken and I went to his company picnic. We enjoyed (thanks to Beitzel Corp) a ski-lift ride, mountain coaster ride, catered lunch, and two hours of white water rafting. We had such a good time! Especially rafting the class III and IV rapids with good buddies Dan & Becky and Diane & Sheldon. Sunday we had a ground breaking ceremony for our new church sanctuary. Since Rachel was the youngest person who brought a shovel to the ceremony, she and the oldest person who brought a shovel got to break first ground. After that everyone else with a shovel dug in too. When the church service was over we had a carry-in lunch and our church retreat. Emma and Rachel had great fun at the retreat. The girls took part in a saw dust dig. Emma dug up over a dollars worth of change and Rachel over two dollars, I'm sure they thought they were quite rich. They also bounced a long time in the moon bouncer and finished the day off with a swim in the pond. To quote Emma "There's lots to do here!" Sure was a tiring but fun weekend!
