These are words that I long to hear come this Thursday. Why? It's vacation time come this Thursday. Our family loves vacation. In fact, Mitchell has been asking for the past several weeks, "When is vacation?" It's the same question that me and Krystal have also been asking in a joking manner as well.
I have been traveling a bit more than usual lately but it hasn't been vacation. In fact, just a couple of weeks ago I said to Ashlyn, "I'm ready for vacation." Her response? "You just got back from Brazil." I explained to her that just because I was on a trip didn't mean that I was on vacation. I explained that vacation is when you don't have a schedule and you can sleep in when you want and also don't have to think about much of anything. When I'm on vacation, I don't speak, teach or prepare anything except what we may be doing that day. She laughed and agreed.
I did just get back last week from California. No, it wasn't a vacation but I was part of the Fire Bible Summit for Children. It sounds like a vacation since we were at Pebble Beach, CA. In fact, I was able to check off something from m
y "Bucket List". I played golf at Pebble Beach. They had just held the 2010 US Open Golf Tournament there. Wow, it was great. But the trip wasn't about golf. It was about the new Children's Fire Bible. We gathered and heard about this great Bible that is being developed just for children. It is the first, to my knowledge, pentecostal study bible for kids. It was great playing at Pebble, but even greater to be a part of giving the Word of God to children.(18th Hole at Pebble Beach)
Vacation is coming and I'm Ready. I'll keep up posted on our adventures when and if we have internet. We plan to stay around Pigeon Forge, TN for a week and then head to Lure Lake, NC. It will be a blast and I look forward to it.
READY, SET, GO on vacation! Have Fun & Make Memories!
