Our group, minus Erik who was running and Cindy who took the picture.
Last night Erik and I got home after a long weekend on Drummond Island, Michigan. We had a great time with an awesome group of friends and are so thankful to the Wengers for opening their house to us and allowing us to use their boat/jetski. Oh, and we did make some great progress on an action plan for Connection - the church service where we are on the Leadership Team.
We had a deal that the girls would prepare food if they guys would clean up. It worked out very nicely!
Some male bonding and game playing took place.
This crew took the boat out on the first day. Erik chose to nap a little during the afternoon instead.
The girls' bowling team. Even though we lost to the guys (despite having Cindy Sheppard on our team who was awesome and a 100 pin handicap), we probably had more fun! Josh and Raquel proved that 9 years of marriage has paid off by winning the Newlywed Game.
Boating, day 2. The muscles had to push us out before we could get the motor started.
We found out that Alicia is a really fast swimmer when she, Cory and Christina flipped the jetski. Christina was fearless!
Erik second-guessed his desire to ski when he felt the water temperature.
We didn't let Raquel get on the jetski - she couldn't even sit on the boat without falling out of her seat! Ed held on to Erik as he untangled the ski rope from the boat's motor. We didn't have as much success untangling it from the jetski.
We enjoyed a beautiful sunset over the lake on our last evening.
What a fun and relaxing weekend! We enjoyed every second of our time together, but also really missed our boy. Malachi's been in Tennessee with his Yaya and 'Buelo and warned me that he wouldn't have time to miss me because he was going to have so much fun. I think he really has enjoyed himself that much because he hasn't even wanted to talk to us on the phone! You can see some pictures of his adventures on Aunt Jessica's blog. Now I'm off to get him and bring him home!!
