We Love Forest Home!

On July 3rd the Heath and Thomas Family headed up to Forest Home for Family Camp 2011. We weren't sure what to expect because neither family had done a family camp like this before. I(Joanna) have a very special place in my heart for Forest Home. This is where I accepted the Lord in junior high as well as had the opportunity to get baptized there as an adult. This was our first opportunity to be at Forest Home as a family and now it holds very special memories for all of us. The kids had wonderful programs and the adults had an amazing speaker that week. Both kids and adults were presented the same bible teachings so we could talk about them with each other. The free time was also a highlight especially for the kids. The pics below show some of the activities we got to do: Fun lake activities (Elizabeth maneuvered a kayak on her own, we were impressed!), horseback riding, miniature golfing(Owen would have done this every second of the day if given that option). Its truly a challenge to illustrate this unique family experience in writing, but that said, we plan to save up and hope to do something like this again. Sharing this vacation with the Thomas Family made it even more fun and memorable. Thanks for sharing in such a fun vacation with us Thomas Family. You are precious friends to us.:)
