We Survived Spruce Mountain

This morning we got out and enjoyed the crisp morning air, as we hiked the two mile Spruce Mountain Trail, here at the camp. It was a wet trail uphill which led to a beautiful waterfall which the trail weaved through. Good thing the boys had their hiking rubbers on!


I loved this sign.....obviously a bear has been scratching at it! Good thing we brought maise.


A beautiful vista view at the top overlooking the camp! Well worth the hike.



Me and my boys! Love them.




We did it!

Bikin And Fishin

The boys have been keeping busy on these spring days riding bike. Ethan got this new bike and is able to go much faster than on his trike.



Kaden, being the motivated boy that he is, learned how to ride without his training wheels!!!! Yah, Buddy!!


Brian and Kaden have been busy fishing the creeks of Northeastern PA.


Kaden loves to touch and play with the fish. He is a good fishing buddy.



The catch for the day.

Easter Festivities

Here the gang is at the Annual Espenshade Extravaganza Egg Hunt
'which we celebrated last weekend
My fiercest competition....Melanie and the girls had pictures of me on the back of their egg hunting shirts.....they are so inspired by my egg hunting abilites. The front of the shirt says "We want to be just like Lisa!"

Hannah took home the prize for most eggs. (she learned from the best)
I tried to kick some out
of her basket but she held on tight!!

Kaden pulling his egg wagon...Brian is his body guard!!

See what happens...even the young ones try to steal the precious eggs!!!!


Some of the eggs were filled with symbols of Christ's life, death and resurrection. We put flowers on this cross to remind us that he is risen and alive!
It was a great Espenshade easter



Our latest egg hunt was held here at the camp with the staff.
Kaden got distracted by the flowers


Ethan got the prized frog egg


The boys with their new friends

We have been very blessed this Easter by family and friends.

But most importantly by the blood and resurrection of Jesus
that has brought each of us new life in Him.

Have a blessed Easter each of you!
