Vacation - Quick, Refreshing, and Rewarding


We made a VERY Quick turn around trip to North Carolina to see our DEAR friends, Meg & Casey, who were home from Peru for the summer. We served with them in Brasil and love them DEARLY! We were able to visit them at Meg's parent's lake house, which is amazing! Meg's parents were there with us too, and it was so great to get to know them better also.
Caleb had so much fun digging up muscles, riding on the Jet Ski - which he got to drive!, tubing with Meg, loving on Meg's mom, riding in the boat - which he got to drive! Meg's mom and dad completely took Caleb in and loved on him as a grandson! Although we were only there like a day and a half, it was so refreshing.

On the way back, we stopped in Gatlinburg, TN. Caleb got to chase the chickens at the Dixie Stampede! He was a bit nervous, but is so proud of his medal! He was in AWE of all the horses and then entire show. COMPLETELY WORTH THE MONEY!!! Chris was most excited about Bubba Gump Shrimp Company! He got a great hat "Run, Forrest, Run" (as posted previously - he's training again for another marathon!). It was a LONG drive in a short 4 days, but totally worth it. AND... Praise the LORD for portable DVD players!
