Family Conference

Last week Dave and I attended Family Conference, a yearly get-together for any state-side workers, members on home service, appointees, etc. It was in Holland, MI, which was a convenient 20 minute drive for us, so we saved a bundle on life insurance by commuting each day.

We went to one adult morning session, which consisted of updates from different areas around the world and a very theological speaker. After that experience we decided to play our "MK camp" card and hang out with the teens, who drank lots of coffee shop beverages and shared life stories.

Highlights were: a "fashion show" that poked good-natured fun at modern styles from around the world; the chance to see the new baby of some friends we'd made at our training in January; and a Parents vs. Kids soccer game that gave Dave an excuse for walking like an old man for several days. (Dave played on the Parents side. :)
