2 April 2009

Last Thursday through Monday, my sister and I had a wonderful adventure with our daddy. It was not dangerous per say, but rather an adventure of encouragement, inspiration, and growth in our relationship with our father.

We attended the Vision Forum Father & Daughter Retreat at the Callaway Gardens near Pine Mountain, Georgia. What a wonderful experience it was!

During the weekend we were able to listen to encouraging and challenging sessions, visit with other like-minded fathers and daughters, and, most importantly, spend time with daddy.

For the majority of the time we were there it was raining, so we were not able to spend much time walking in the beautiful gardens, but God ordained it that way and the weekend still turned out lovely!

Photographs and notes of the memorable event are on their way!

    Thank you for sharing your passion for Christ with the world. I am encouraged by your attitude towards your dad and how that translates into your future marriage (I’ve read your past posts). Anyway, I really believe you are preparing your heart for a lifetime of love….

    Oh, I’m sure you had a wonderful time with your Daddy. I have thought that going to the Vision Forum Father-Daughter Retreat would be very neat, but it is much to far away.

    This picture is absolutely gorgeous, just like the one in the post above it.

    Have a very bright, very cheerful day!

    Emily, I LOVE this picture. I was showing my husband tonight, and he said that would make a great picture for a puzzle!

    Sounds like a wonderful event! We live in Georgia, but it’s been a while since we’ve been to Callaway Gardens. It is beautiful, though, isn’t it! ♥

    (Love your beautiful blog, by the way!)
