Well, mortonclan is full, y'all!! From our (or, dear Kress and "Charlie", aka Alan's) first post here back in September 2005, to yesterday afternoon! LOL, looking back in the archives is amazing...the Lord has been, as He always is, so gracious and faithful to us.
You can now go to:

Weekend Family Retreat at Calathora-Installment #1
Goodevening, y'all!!
How are ya' this lovely July evening? We're having a wonderful day here-I'm so happy. While all these pictures have been loading, I've been just soaking up some of God's Word-That is amazing that we get to read the inspired Words of God Almighty. Ah. Thank You, Lord. Please give me Wisdom...
"When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth: While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world. When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth: When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep: When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth: Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him; Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men. Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways. Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not. Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
Ah-now to the post-this is the first part of a quite a few pictures from a wonderful weekend of fellowship, encouragement, learning, and just reveling in the peaceful Spirit of the Lord with the Body of Christ!!

God's Word and Notes
My Father speaking...
Mama spoke to the ladies some about how our thoughts eventually come out in our actions and words-we must be so careful to renew our minds and take every thought captive to the obedience of Jesus Christ-I really enjoyed Mama's fun and memorable way (notice the thought bubble) of communicating such an important message to the wives and daughters. God bless you, Mother dear!
Mr. Marc speaking...
Lovely Em!

We are rather missing our dear Mama and Daddy, though, who are off to the Sanders over night to check on the job and such-so that just leaves us kiddos here! We shall have a grand time, however, for Dee's made homemade pizza and Lord willing we shall all curl up on the couchling this evening and watch a moving picture show!! :D I can smell the pizza now...Ah-now to the post-this is the first part of a quite a few pictures from a wonderful weekend of fellowship, encouragement, learning, and just reveling in the peaceful Spirit of the Lord with the Body of Christ!!

Saturday night we had a grand time playing cards and playing instruments and singing-I just love sitting around relaxing and visiting together...

Alan was the fiddler...
And Edger, Cleve, Mr. W. and Nick played guitar, and Jake played the piano-it was all so beautiful.
Mr. W. also played the mandolin-oh, y'all, this is incredible-he makes his own instruments! The one he is playing in the above picture is one of his, and he also brought several others that we all really enjoyed looking at. The mandolin added allot to the music.
