Last weekend we went up to Storybook Lodge. We go up there every year with our TEACH homeschooling group. It was very fun and, suprisingly, very warm! Last year there was a onehundered degree difenrence from outside to the dining hall! There was, roughly, 20 families that came.
Here is a picture of everyone how came. This was right next to the Gym and dorms. Storybook is absolutly gorgeous! It has little houses that look like a shoe or a pumkin, or a small shack to represent the seven dwarves' house. The people who run the lodge do it completely on donations and faith.
This is the dining hall. The cooks are so dedicated in what they do and the food is always great. They have Bible study time before every meal and bless the food.
Here are some of the tables of people who wanted to say "Hi" to Camille and Stephanie. On the table above are Christian W, Mrs Walburg, Jessica W, Mrs Wilson, and Mr Walburg.
"Hi Camille and Stephanie!" Jessica S, Josie L, Kate K, Mr McKeen, Mrs. Kinzer, Marie L, Alissa and Amy S.
Here is Mr McKeen and Jono Newhoues playing "Are my Ears on Straight?" for the young children that had come. It was so cute!
Here are Abbi, Libby, Alissa, Amy and Jessica on the lake. It was so fun! We got to walk across the lake and got to some of the islands. It was so beautiful! Some people were even daring enough to
sleep on the ice at night!
Here are all the quizzers that came up. From left to right, Tim W, Marie L, Me (Hope), Abbi, Ben W, Chris W, Leith W, and Libby N. Jeff was there also, but he didn't make it in time for the picture.
"AH! Its a BANANNA!!" I don't actually know what she was thinking for this picture, but I thought Libby looked cute.
On our way Home, we (meaning myself, mom, Abbi, Tim and Ben Wilson) stopped in Duluth. It was so gorgeous there! The waves from the lake had blown ice in thin layers on top of each other and the rocks surrounding the lake were incased in the ice! It was a very fun trip adn I am already looking forward to going again next year. -Hope :)
