Vacation is as Vacation does

I've been out of the blogging loop for a bit while we were on vacation in Frisco, CO. We get to go to some pretty cool places with our ministry...San Diego, Colorado, Orlando. But a few years back we were encouraged not to let our ministry assignments be our vacations. Though they are incredible opportunities, we are working.

But there has been very little work involved in the past 4 days. Unless you want to count my huffing and puffing to make it to our third floor condo in the high altitude. Our vacation was not about work, but about play.

We slept in...
Went on hikes with breathtaking views...
Went biking...
also with breathtaking views...

Played at parks with, you guessed it, breathtaking views...
And kissed with those same breathtaking views as our backdrop...
Ate Ben and Jerry's out of the containers...
Played in mountain streams...

Where the cold water makes you do this...
Since frigid water was notsomuch our thang, we made daily trips to the indoor pool...

Where the pool water was almost as warm as a hot tub, and the outdoor hot tubs were nothing short of bliss.

At night we played Charades and watched episodes of "Jonas" and "Hannah Montana" together...
And ate breakfast one day at our favorite local restaurant The Butterhorn Bakery and Cafe...
Not that I have an unhealthy fixation on food or anything, but I am still dreaming about their Eggy Bread and Eggs Butterhorn.

Vacation was good for us. God was good to us.

If we ever get another dog, Frisco is his name for sure.
