Day 5 - Thursday, June 24

Today was our fun day. We had a blast at Kings Dominion. There was good news and bad news. The bad news was it got up to 101 degrees today. The good news was that the temperatures kept the crowds down and water was free. Our kids got to ride everything they wanted to. I hope you enjoy the pictures from the day. It was hard to get pictures of everyone since we were divided in groups, but rest assured, we all had a blast.

Tonight's devotion time was led by Madison and Connor. Madison spoke about faith and works. Connor spoke on what success really looks like. We took time tonight to talk about yesterday (since we didn't get a chance to then) and to talk about today. We also spent time thanking our chaperones. We gave the seniors a chance to address the group individually one last time, and gave the rest of the group time to say a word to them. It was another very touching moment. The love this group expresses to one another is so very precious. They are so eloquent and genuine in their words. I was blessed to be a witness to it and am continually blessed to have each one of them in my life.

To lighten the mood, we then gave out awards for the week and the top 10 list. You can check them out on separate posts.

Finally, Connor made the announcement where we are going next year... but you'll have to come on Sunday morning to hear for yourself!

Enjoy the photos!
