Fall Marriage Retreat

Ben and I are so thankful for our Sunday School class at FBC Boerne.  A couple in our class planned a marriage retreat for the weekend and it was amazing.  We had to go late due to a throwing up Hallie but made it early Saturday morning and didn't miss out on much.  So thankful for Ben's parents for watching a sick baby and a crazy two year old so we could really enjoy some time together and with friends.  We had a total of 26 couples that came!  What a blessing!  When Ben and I started going to church in Boerne there was a total of 5 couples in a Wednesday night class and we didn't even meet on Sundays.  Oh how it has grown and blessed us tremendously. 

The retreat was wonderful and Ben and I both walked away with some great biblical perspectives of our marriage in today's society.  We both really underestimated what we were going to learn this weekend!  We are excited about making this an annual tradition for us to go one.  We felt it really helped us have a goal of not just living day to day to make it by, but really striving to have a GREAT marriage focused on God. 

We had lots of free time and enjoyed the afternoon canoeing, riding the four wheeler (my country girl came out in full force on this one, just ask Ben:)) and taking a tour of the property in Junction.  We had such a great time!
