This weekend was the annual Women of Grace Getaway, a time of solitude, relaxation, and reflection. For the husbands, this weekend was none of those...five dads, 9 kids, 2 vans, 1 house, and quite possibly the beginning of an annual tradition!
From: Jeff, Josh, and Katelyn
To: Sam, Parker, and Macy...Jon and Ania...Dirk, Molly, and Ellie...Mike, Jack, and Luke.
Thanks for a great time!!!
Here's how it started in the "girls' van"...
Katelyn getting some alone time...
Order among chaos...
Dirk playing "around the world" with the kids...or vice versa?
Another trip to Swallow Falls...this one full of falls of a different kind (slipping on the ice!). Josh is getting up right before Katelyn fell down...
Getting 6 of 9 kids to stay still long enough for a picture...a minor miracle!
Getting 8 kids to sit still...only Dora could pull that off!
