Well we actually got away for a weekend without the kids! Woo-hoo!
Our ABF growth group leaders organized a great get away at Beavers Bend for a marriage retreat. We and 2 other couples camped...yes in a tent instead of staying at the lodge! It was cold (at night) but we had a blast hanging out by the camp fire. Luckily I kept enough bug spray on me to keep the ticks away. Jarrod and John weren't so fortunate. So far, neither of them have had any weird symptoms so we think they're healthy.
Our activities included biking, canoing, hiking, and smoring. We had lots of fun but did miss the kids. We'll definitely have to take the kids camping at Beavers Bend. It was beautiful and they would have loved canoing the mini rapids. Our biking experience was interesting. We rode/pushed our bikes up what we thought was a bike trail only to figure out that it was a steep hiking trail to a lookout. Jarrod was the only one that rode all the way up...the rest of us pushed our bikes to the top. I'm married to such a hot stud! :) We ALL rode down the trail (which was a blast) just in time to get reprimanded by one of the park police officers. That's when we found out that the half torn up no-biking symbol at the trail entrance really meant NO BIKING! Oops!
