Franklin Festival in Charleston (Sept. 19-21)


















Jason and I were invited to attend the Franklin Festival this past weekend to see how the festivals are run. We drove down with Jason's boss and wife and were kept really busy! We did have about 2 hours to go downtown on Saturday, so we saw the market and the beautiful old trees and ate at a fun crab restaurant and enjoyed lots of sampled treats at the candy store. We enjoyed everything so much. The hotel was really nice, the morning devotions were great, and the nightly meetings were well attended. We were able to walk "behind the scenes" to see how things work... like the video taping, the decision counting/co-labor after the service (which sometimes lasts all night!), the volunteer and counselor preparation, the donor dinners, etc. One of the pictures you can see the large choir that sat behind the stage on the 2nd level.


It was I started week #28 in the pregnancy! As you can see, the baby is growing and so am I!
