It was our first time too and it looks like you covered everything! We didn't arrive until Sunday afternoon due to illness but it seemed like the lord redeemed the time. Everyday I kept thinking we had less days left then we did.

I'm a part of the family, the family of God!" <br /><br />One of my friends has been going to Spofford since she was in elementary school, and she's headed up to staff there next week! She says she loves it there . . . and this confirms it's a special place. ;DA&Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00199451832512165484noreply@blogger.com
