Time for some fun!

Every year the owner of the company that my hubby works for,
takes all his employees and their families on a vacation for an extended weekend!!!!
(He is so generous! I could do a whole post about this inspiring man! His love for the Lord shows through in everything he does!)

The whole trip feels like a big church event full of homeschoolers! (because almost everyone is homeschooling their children or they were home schooled as kids)

It's lots of fun!!! The kiddos spend their days fishing, swimming, playing tennis, basketball, archery and riding bikes. It's a great time for all of us moms to relax since all the meals are served in the dining room. (I LOVE that part)
The employees attend meetings in the mornings and then have the afternoons to goof off with their families.
On Saturday night we all get dressed up for a company awards banquet which is always a special evening. On Sunday we all worship together and then we get ready to head for home!

It's something we look forward to all year long!

This weekend sounds more relaxed than last weekend. I do hope you have a wonderful time.

I saw a tv show the other day where a man was talking about giving your employees hugs. He said they are not necessarily physical hugs, just a token of love to show them how much they are appreciated.

This sounds like a wonderful hug to me. You husband has a great boss.
