We had a fabulous time in Colorado Springs with our friends that we met in Mississippi. The altitude is 6200 feet above sea level so we had some getting used to... Willie snoring, Olivia’s lips bleeding and I couldn’t stop yawning (apparently my brain was lacking!) Going from sea level in Louisiana to over a mile high in a few days is a bit of a shock to the system. We got to see the Focus on the Family ‘head quarters’ and we went to an amazing display of God’s creativity in a place called the Garden of the Gods. I’ll post pictures soon (seriously... I will do it soon). Jim and Cyndi Curran put us up for the night so the kids got to sleep in a bunk bed which was pretty exciting (oh to be a kid again!) We got to meet some of their family and their two grandbabies who were 4 and 2 years of age... God’s lovin’ the details!!
We are thankful for safety - we almost blew away in the strong winds today but alas we remained grounded; for now... we set up camp in Cheyenne, Wyoming and we’re doing well. Thanks for the prayers... it’s only a few more days and we’ll be able to put our feet up and get out of the truck for a few days in Magrath.

wow, you guys are going to carry so many memories with you, how awesome!!! I hope you don't go too crazy in your truck and that you have safe travels. I drove past your house today and your car is like totally snowed under so dont expect to use it when you get home!lol Anyway, take care, enjoy your last bit of time away from `normal` and we`ll all be waiting when you arrive!!!!
I am so glad to hear that things are going well. We loved Garden of the Gods too - it was beautiful! I can remember going there with my mom when I was about 10 and then Kent and I went with Corey and Carson 4 years ago. Hugs and kisses to all! We miss you!
Okay, now I get it. I thought from your facebook status, "They can't possibly be back in Canada?!". I guess Canada isn't the only place that is cold! :)
