Awwww...Vacation

It's here!  Our family vacation.  It's not that I don't absolutely love what I do (pastoring the greatest church I know) but we all need a get-away. 

This year we are heading back to Colorado.  I love the mountains! There's just something about the Rocky Mountains that you can't find anywhere else.  We arrived in Steamboat Springs, CO just yesterday afternoon.  It is gorgeous.  We spent the day recovering from the 14 hour drive.  We slept in and then went downtown and walked around and took in the local scenery. 

Vacations are fun for us.  It's a time when we truly get away.  Krystal and I make a promise to each other while we are leaving Siloam Springs.  We promise each other to not bring up church business.  I think this is for me more than her.  Everybody needs a get-away.  We love it for several reasons.  First, we do need a "down time" for refreshing.  Second, we love making memories with our kids.  In fact, we have already reminisced about other vacations we have taken.

We really don't have a set schedule.  There are a few things we said we are wanting to accomplish, but mostly it will be a time to relax and make great memories with the family.  I'll keep you updated and let you know how it is going.  Check back and read about our adventure in the Rockies!  We'll be leaving Steamboat on Friday and making our way south to Pagosa Springs, CO.  Stay tuned!
