Rehvyn jumped in this so much he put himself to sleep.  What a sweet and precious gift from God

I got up early to get ready.  Bill got ready and went to Good News Riders Meeting in Flint.  I had time to go to Costco and get gas before going to the retreat.  The Great Hall was just across the street and down a little way from Costco.  Got there and walked in with Tina and Amanda.  I saw Sue and Marlee right away, so went in to put my stuff at their table.  I saved a seat for Maddy too.  They had cinnamon rolls and fruit cups for breakfast.  They were so good.  Maddy got there, so I stayed by Baby Mason while she went up to get her breakfast.  Cheryl W. and Andrea P. came and sat at our table too.  Andrea and I were telling people about how we met at Nori’s after having breakfast at the next table.  Bill had a New Life sweatshirt on.  Andrea asked us about our church and she and her family came the next Sunday and have been coming for 2 years now. Andrea was the leader for our table and did a great job.  She read our table Scripture which was Psalm 46:1.  She also would ask the questions after the speaker was finished so we could discuss them.  

The speaker and her husband started out with worship.  He was so gifted on the piano and they both sang so well together.  It was awesome worship.  Marlee was very interesting to listen to and very encouraging.  We had lunch at noon.  It was a baked potato bar with a salad.  Then at another table they had a person dishing up squash soup.  All the food was really good.  They brought dessert out later.  Maddy and I took turns watching Mason while the other one went up for their food/drinks.  He was just such a good baby and never cried once.  I loved holding him.  He’s so sweet.  We did a couple more worship songs, played a couple of games, had breakout sessions at our table, fellowshipped lots and had a great time.

I was happy Sue had a great time too.  We were blessed at our table with such caring people who love Jesus and are such encouragers.  We all prayed at each table and then were dismissed to go home.  I called Vikki and Rehvyn was there, so I headed over to see him.  Bill had let me know he was at Ron and Bev’s for the chili cookout.  I thought he meant Ron and Barb, so was going to go there.  I called him and he was in Owosso headed home.  I told him I was going to Vikki’s to see Rehvyn.  He ended up coming to Vikki’s so he could see Rehvyn too.  We loved spending time with Vikki and all the kids at her house.  We re so blessed.  Bill left, and then shortly after I left.  I took Evan home on my way.  I went in and visited for a few minutes, then headed home.  We read our Bibles.  We relaxed in the evening.
