There are a couple of summer time trips scheduled for the summer, but nothing major - so it should be pretty laid back. We have fenced in the yard, and are expecting the backyard playset to get delivered/installed (Bob Villa I'm not) any day now - so there is always the option of booting the yard apes (kids) and yard horse (dog) into the backyard to burn off some summertime energy.
Other than summer time a' comin', life progresses as always. The eldest child hits 7 in a few weeks (single tear), proof positive that I am getting flippin' old.
God continues to bless us in all sorts of ways (some I'm sure we don't even see), and we thank Him for that. Speaking of The One in charge, whilst y'all are having your own conversations with Him, please lift up the Chapman family (Steven Curtis Chapman, et. al.) in your prayers. SCC is a singer who has been a big part of our marriage/lives for a lot of years now (not necessarily personally, though we have met him a few times - but certainly directly through his music and testimony). He and his family have recently suffered a horrible tragedy that is difficult to fathom, much less discuss. For more info (and to marvel at how they are able to glorify Him during such heartbreak), please follow this link.
Other than that - I'll catch y'all up with how the "break" is coming along (although again, JT - since you're the only reading this, and we live together - it probably won't be much of a surprise).
