Can't come soon enough

It's going to be incredible.

July 18th.

Twitter

Ok, I've been pretty bad about updating this the last few weeks. You can blame the summer time, work, family, whatever. I'm really not sure I have any excuse anyway.

So, here is what you can do to follow me while this is going on. See the twitter stuff on the right side of the blog? If you really miss hearing from me just follow me on my twitter.

I promise that my twitter will keep you up to the minute on what is going on in my life. I understand that may not always be a good thing.

Talk with you soon.

Me and Larry

Ok, I put this picture on my twitter yesterday but someone told me I was a "scaredy cat" for not posting it on the blog.

So here it is, my brush with greatness at Silver Dollar City.



I must admit, it kind of scared me to see Bob and Larry with arms and legs. Maybe that's just me.

And by the way, I sure am glad they didn't get a picture of me hugging them both. Now that would be embarrassing.

God of My World

Check out the new project from the Evangel Creative Arts Team called "God of My World." They'll be working on it over the next several weeks. You can even pre-order your copy here.

And I hear if you hurry you may even get it for free.

Pizza for dinner?

Last night we got back from Silver Dollar City pretty late. So we started getting everyone cleaned up ready to eat some dinner. (We couldn't bear the thought of eating another meal inside the park. Talk about crazy prices!)

After taking a shower and sitting down we come to the conclusion that we don't really want to leave again to eat. It would be better for the kids and everyone else if we just ordered something in.

So we decide on pizza. Easy right? Not so fast.

We decide to go with Pizza Hut. After looking on our GPS device and the internet we finally give Pizza Hut a call. Only it's not Pizza Hut anymore. It seems that Pizza Hut has gone out of business and another pizza place has their old number. But we're not sure we want to get pizza from there. So I call someone else, find out their specials and hang up. I repeat this with every pizza place in Branson.

45 minutes later we've decided to go with Domino's because we think it's the closest to where we are. So Tom and I get in the van and head out to pick the pizza up. (It's now been over an hour since we started this adventure.)

On the drive we pass two of the pizza places that were "farther" away from us.

About an hour and a half later we get back to the condo to eat pizza with some very hungry kids and wives.

Oh, it was Domino's pizza by the way.

Vacation Day 3

Here are the pics from Day 3 of the BIG vacation.

The view of Tablerock Lake from our balcony


Now back to Silver Dollar City.

First, Caden had the opportunity to milk a cow


We took a ride on the Lost River


And we got a little wet


Don't look in that hole!


And Crystal gave some Hoola-hoop lessons before we left, and I must say...she's pretty good. (That's her in the yellow shirt.)






Tomorrow is our next travel day. We meet some more people in Springfield then we start the long trip back home.

Also, tomorrow...I'll tell you about our dinner tonight. (Unless you've been reading my twitter.)

Vacation Day 2

Well we made it through a day of Silver Dollar City. Fun stuff, here are some pics:

Starting out in jail


Riding some roller coasters




Caden was able to find some rides




Never know who'll you run into




They wanted to go home


We'll do it again tomorrow.....
