We spent a wonderful week last week at Laguna Beach, near Panama City, FL with Mission 28 (CrossWay's college ministry). Since Nick is leading a third of the group in a small-group setting, we were invited to go along this year so Nick could preach one of the messages. Jeanie and I drove down with our three girls in a rental SUV, which was smaller than we thought. So we had three carseats across, which actually worked out well. We stayed the night at my sister Margaret's house in Atlanta (which was a lot of fun!), then headed the rest of the way to Florida the next day. We beat most of the people there since we left a day early, so we got to enjoy a nice afternoon at the beach with the girls when we got there. Kathryn really liked the sand (liked eating it, too!). The weather was pretty nice- a little chilly all week, but sunny every day but one. The highlight for me was enjoying the Worship and messages, enjoying time with friends, and getting to know some of the girls in our Care Group a little better. The ride back was interesting. Jeanie and I got to Atlanta around 9:30, and decided we thought we could drive the whole way back that night (4-5 hours from Atlanta). This was probably a bad idea. The first hour was great- girls were both zombies in the back, watching their DVD's (they were so tired but were just sitting there in the dark, eyes wide open, losing brain cells by the minute), and then the rest of the time involved loud crying/screaming, Kathryn and Alathea taking turns waking each other up....so, it was.....interesting. But we made it back to sleep in our own beds, which was nice.

"Vegging" while watching TV...too funny! Feet crossed and everything.

I think Kathryn was trying to imitate the sound the birds were making in this picture

On our balcony...right on the beach! Amazing.

The view from our balcony...beautiful!

The last morning was warm enough for swim suits, so Kathryn got a true "beach experience"

Sitting in a giant hole one of the students dug

loved the sand...eating it, too!
