Colorado Fun



Yes, this is Gramma Beccy sledding down the mountain in the Rockies with Hunter!  What a blast!



Justin and the little girls soon had their fill of the blowing snow and ice, but it was sure beautiful.




Cousin time has been great...until the Browns succumbed to Strep.  Pray for us...we want to play!




We've loved this time so much.  Yet we are anxious to get back to the task at hand too.  Please pray also that our passports and visas will come back within a week so we can purchase our return tickets.  Thanks!



Snow Days

Monday we got to return to the mountain school where Justin and I met...such sweet memories. We walked through the woods where Justin first told me he loved me, only now with our 3 girls.
We slipped and slid through the ice and snow while the girls delighted in the novelty of it all. (yes, we had gloves, they just took them off so they could REALLY feel it)
We marveled at the beauty in front of us (living and otherwise) that God has designed to reflect HIS majesty.
And we got to spend time with past teachers while encouraging the current students not to settle for the American spin on Christianity, but to chase hard after the God who made this universe and gave His life so that we might LIVE FOR HIM, not for ourselves. What a challenge for us all! What an amazing day it was.

Phoenix

Last week we got the chance to go over to Phoenix to visit dear family we hadn't seen in years...some many, many years. We had such a great time! Reconnecting with loved ones and meeting new ones is so fun.
The girls had an absolute blast with cousins and cousins kids. We sure do thank the Lord for Family!
And thanks to Family for being wonderful hosts.

Brrrrr

Well, it's a sunny 37 degrees up here in Colorado and we are COLD! But lovin' our family time. Shannon's parents and sister and brother along with their families are all here as well as dear friends not seen nearly enough. So we are soakin' it up!

We just sent out a letter to everyone who signed up last weekend at the Conference last weekend. Unfortunately, several got kicked back and a couple were hard to dicipher. So if you did NOT get an e-mail from us around 4pm on Tuesday (check your spam) let us know so we can try again.

That's it for now, I'll post snow pics soon!
