Vacation Reflections...

Here's a few, random, thoughts bouncin' through my brain since returning from vacation...

1. I really, REALLY, love my family!
2. I could get used to living near water.
3. Foof-chairs are awesome (gonna get one soon)!
4. A hot-tub a day keeps the tension away.
5. My sons & I are the Three Amigos (I'm 'dusty bottoms').
6. My wife is beautiful!!!
7. Real Church can survive 2 weeks without me (I'm shocked!).
8. I like my dog, Oreo, more than I want to admit.
9. I really do live in the ghetto!  It's crazy! Ha!!
10. I'm a fast reader (took down "IT" in 2 hours)...
11. My kids are NOT typical homeschoolers!
12. I'm gonna have 'guest bloggers' more often (great job!).
13. Hurricanes SUCK!
14. I like sleeping to the sound of waves...
15. my iPhone does not enjoy the hot-tub like I do (ouch!)!!

Thanks a lot to ALL of you who prayed for us while we were away. We had, perhaps, the best vacation EVER!  I'm blessed to have such great friends and allies.  Would love to hear your thoughts, questions or comments to this random list... please leave a comment or two...

Also, stay tuned this week, I have a BIG change coming...  (curious?)  Much love, Chilly

The Three Amigos is awesome! Dusty Bottoms is so funny! ("Lip Balm?")

iPhones don't like water - I hope you didn't try to baptize it! (Maybe you were anticipating the Big Splash?!?)

I'm excited about what ever change will happen! I love changes (usually)!!!

We really missed you @ REAL Church! This ran, but you were greatly missed!!! (thanks for the opportunity to be used!)

"Real Church can survive 2 weeks without me (I'm shocked!)." ~ I was told once that you can tell a good leader, not by WHO is following the leader, but who is following THEM... so yeah, no suprise here (though you were missed!)

"My kids are NOT typical homeschoolers!" ~ HA! Rock on!

and as for the news... can't wait!

Even though we survived - we missed you at REAL Church! I love the 3 Amigos thing with your sons. I'm always so amazed at how cool of a relationship you have with your kids. Your girls are definitely not typical homeschoolers!!!

interested in what happened to your iPhone. i'm curious about the big change. I'm grateful to be in the fight here in Hamtramck!
