"Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate."
Psalm 127:3-5

A trip to the mountains!

We have some friends who have a cabin in the mountains of North Carolina. They have let us use it for the past few years and it has become one of our family's favorite vacation spots. We went up there for the weekend this month with some good friends from Tennessee and had a blast.

The crew out for a hike


"Come on girls, you're almost to the top!"


Nothing like playing in a river!



Battling the strong currents and slippery rocks



A little wet and a little cold



"...When through the woods and forest glades I wander,"


"...And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees..."


"...When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur..."



"...And hear the brook..."


"...And feel the gentle breeze..."


Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
