Trip to Shipshewana

Don and I arrived back home from our two-day getaway yesterday. What a wonderful time we had!

Our son and daughter-in-law gifted us with a two-day stay at a Bed and Breakfast in Shipshewana, Indiana. If any of you have ever been to Shipshewana, you will know that it is an Amish community and that there are many wonderful shops where one can visit and enjoy looking at some beautiful items for hours on end. Even my husband enjoyed the trip and yes, he even enjoyed the shops. The flea market was absolutely amazing!

I felt totally and wonderfully spoiled. The Bed and Breakfast home was beautifully decorated--inside and out. It was as if we walked into a page of Better Homes and Gardens. Our host and hostess were very sweet people and the breakfast they served was absolutely delectable.

At 5:00 p.m. almost everything closes and the town is quiet except for the clip clop of the horses pulling the buggies. What a calming affect it has on everyone!

Just a reminder: The June Bible Study for Wonderfully Made Moms can be found on our church website http://www.lighthousebaptistchurchil.org/.

Just finished reading your lesson on your church website I must say how deeply it touches me. It is so wonderful to read that God says it is ok to love ourselves. We do that by being kind to our selves... no guilt!!! Thank You Cindy for being such a good teacher!!!
