Houseparty

I know its been almost a week, but this past weekend was very eventful and deserves its own post. The Christian Union had their "Houseparty," or retreat, and we all went up to the Scottish Highlands. It was gorgeous. The weekend was just what I needed. Lately I have been feeling slightly frustrated, because I have soo much work to do, but hate to be cooped up and not taking advantage of being in Scotland. Most of the time was just hanging out, but we had a guest speaker that gave four solid, challenging sessions on God's grace and what it means for our lives. Other than that, the weekend consisted of walks, taking pictures of the changing colors, late night talks, and ping-pong. Or table-tennis. Which is just a ridiculous name, because then you have to call the table a table-tennis table. But I guess ping-pong is just a ridiculous of a word. Anyway, I started off really great, and even impressed the guys with my sneaky serve. But then the pressure got to me and I started to lose it. Not that you are all interested in my ping-pong success. Another highlight was archery lessons, though I was AWFUL. In a one hour session, I only hit the target board once. Needless to say, it is harder than it looks. 

I'm adding some pictures of the weekend. Enjoy!
