Well the retrteat was totally awesome and amazing. Nine couples came and enjoyed the beautiful surrounding in Smith's Cove, at the romantic Harbourview Inn. Darren and Vance treated us wondefully and the Inn was so very nice. The food was amazing as well - especially the breakfasts. I went swiming in the pool, which was the first time in over 5 years I have been in the water.
I want to thank God for sending the couples/people that He did; for the weekend would not have been as enjoyable and special if they hadn't come. The workshops were enlightening and the games were very fun. I especially enjoyed watching Ted and Linda roll a ball back and forth for over 45 minutes (quality time).
But the highlight of the weekend came Sunday morning at 9am, as Brenda and Henry Ford rededicted themselves to one another in a Marriage Vows Renewal Ceremony. Genos gave the bride away. Linda stood as Brenda's maid of honor and Sankey was Henry's best-man. The Ceremony was not a planned event for the weekend; and was brought on by the Holy Spirit. The bride was beautiful, carrying pink roses, and the groom was very handsome, with a pink rose on his lapel.
All the rest of the couples were emotional, as well as a few other Inn patrons. Brenda and Henry had a wonderful second marriage ceremony. God bless them.
The weekend had so many highs and amazing things that happen. Just ask anyone who was there. I want to thanks Peggy for her help organizing the weekend and helping out, while I did other things. Thanks so much Peggy. Also, thanks to Tanya who aided us at getting ready.
Well, just wait until next year!
Blessings and love to you all.

I heard soooo many good things about the weekend, and I'm glad it went over so well.
You're very welcome dad for helping you with everything. Photocopying definitely worked up a sweat. Lol!
Congrats to Henry and Brenda. Everything sounded so sweet.
I also heard there were some tears shed on the weekend, and some play time.
Oh, and by the way, Craig... that picture of you in the pantyhose.... niiiiice. :)
Yes, it was a lovely weekend... I look forward to the next.
I'm dying to see Craig in pantyhose. When will you be sharing the pics???
Thank you so much for organizing (you, Peggy, and Tanya)... you put a lot of work into it and it showed. I LOVED the games!
