Mountain Retreat


This past weekend, we left the kids with my cousin (all the kids, even Jonah!) and went to a marriage retreat up in the mountains nearby. It was a nice little getaway. The fall colors were just starting to pop up. We took a nice little scenic route to get there, enjoying the beautiful scenery.

The retreat included dinner on Friday, and breakfast and lunch on Saturday. There were four workshops on marriage taught by a professor of family sciences at BYU and a marriage counselor. The retreat also includes quite a few fun outdoor activities and hikes, although we weren't able to take advantage of any of those this time around, as we arrived late (there was football game traffic) and had to leave early on Saturday (after the workshops) to get the kids and so I could go to the General Relief Society Meeting at the Conference Center.

Hopefully next year we'll be able to enjoy more of the recreational activities and it would be even cooler if we could get some other couples to come with us! It really is great, people!
