Marriage Retreat

A couple weekends ago, Chase and I had the awesome opportunity to go to a wonderful marriage retreat up in Prescott Valley. We had a blast. There were 9 other couples there, and we got to share stories of times when God worked through tough times in our marriages in an informal atmosphere. Chase and I got to hear some really good things and it was neat to see other couples giving advice about mistakes that they had made or how they would have done things differently. We also got to know the couples in our Faith Forward Sunday morning class a lot better. The retreat was laid back and really focused on spending time together as a couple in prayer and talking about issues in our relationships.
On Saturday night, which was date night, Chase and I went to downtown Prescott and had a casual dinner at a local brewery. This town was so cute! It had all these little shops and "saloons" at every corner. All the retail was old western. And best of all, it was a normal October temperature! Now I do NOT miss cold weather. But it was nice to have a night to walk around when it was quite brisk outside (ok let's be real, I got pretty chilly). I brought these fall scented candles from Bath and Body works that I have been waiting to burn until the weather changed. It still hasn't changed in Phoenix, but thanks to Prescott, we got to burn them and get into Fall mode.
