Covenant Pines - BCC Winter Retreat 2009

This weekend we went to Covenant Pines Bible Camp in McGregor, MN, about three hours north of the Twin Cities. We once again didn't want to miss our Bloomington Covenant Church's annual winter retreat at CPBC - it is one of our favorite weekends of the year. We had so much fun! I grew up going to camp with my family and as a camper since I was a little girl, Matt and I worked there on staff one summer during college, and now we get to bring our daughter to camp too. Mckenna did great - she pretty much stayed on her eating/sleeping schedule, enjoyed everything that was going on, and of course, got a lot of attention from all of our church friends. Here are some pictures from our weekend.



This picture was taken literally minutes after we got to camp on Friday evening. I wanted to get a picture of Mckenna right away when we arrived - her first few moments at Covenant Pines. She will be spending a lot of time here in the future, I'm sure. As you can see, she's happy to be at camp!

Such a big girl, sitting up (with some help!)

All bundled up and ready to go outside!

This was the second year for the annual ping pong tournament. Matt is really good, I'm really not... but we all play for fun. :)




"Daddy, time to wake up - we have a lot of fun things to do today!"



Before we left to go home on Sunday, we took a walk around the camp. Here is Mckenna all ready (and fast asleep) to go on our walk.
