Vision Leadership Conference

We were blessed to attend our endorsing denomination's leadership conference this weekend.  The Grace Brethren conference was held in Palm Springs, CA and we are able to attend a few chaplain related pieces to the conference.  We arrived late on Friday afternoon and had special training for the chaplains and wives on Saturday.  We'll have breakfast on Sunday with the Eagle Commission (people who support the Grace Brethren Chaplains by prayer and financial support for our endorsing agents, chaplains, and chaplain candidiates) and then leave on Monday.  Here are some pictures from our travel day and first day...
All snuggled up on the plane!

Moving Day Casualty

Considering all the moving we've done since leaving Aiken, I am surprised that this was the only thing that broke!  I'm going to miss this sweet soup bowl!
