Travels and Camp

Well, we have officially traveled with our child, and to be honest, the airports are so helpful and it is so much easier when you are traveling with an infant as far as checking in and security go! Thankfully, Benton traveled well. We spent some time in Clemson with Rachael's family and then a few days with them on vacation in FL before flying out to AZ. Vacation was actually somewhat of a business trip for Bert, so the little grandsons stole the show. It was a time of wonderful memories.

We flew into Phoenix over the weekend,  are picked up some additional people who came early to help out with preparations for camp. We have been working on finalizing a lot of little details over the past couple weeks and are excited to see the Lord bring everything together. 

Matt is the assistant to the director and will be helping run everything. Rachael will be Mom to Benton and then working in the office and helping out wherever she is needed. Benton will be tagging along but cannot wait until he is old enough to help out. He is excited to spend the summer with his friends.

We are currently at the camp site in Alpine, AZ and are enjoying the beauty of the mountains, crisp, cool air, and a rain shower every afternoon. Matt's parents packed up their home in Sanders on Tuesday and Wednesday and will be permanently relocating in the Fall. We are working with Matt's parents, the Noggle, Dalporto and Olsen families. The rest of our summer staff arrives on Monday, and we look forward to having everyone together!
