Vacation Fun











Last week our family went to the mountains of Colorado. We spent several days in South Fork, and skiing in Wolf Creek. We had a blast of a time.

Up in the mountains we had no internet, and very little cell phone coverage. There was a t.v. but we didn’t watch it that much. It was nice to be away from the hustle and bustle. The mountains are beautiful and a wonderful reminder of the creative power of God.

The girls love the snow—real snow. Back here in Texas if we get a tiny bit of sleet and ice we close the schools. There was several feet of fresh powder on the ground in South Fork. We sledded, played, made snow angels, snow balls, and had a grand time in real snow.

I love these times with the family. With the girls getting older our schedules are becoming packed. I think it is important for us to take time away to spend some time with just us. My prayer is that the Lord will use these times to grow us closer together as a family and, most importantly, closer to Him.
