Cabo Get-Away

Thanks to the generosity of our friends Bruce and Taylor Morgan and the gift of miles from other friends last year, we had an incredible vacation last week in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. I met Sheryl in Dallas after Jenny's funeral and we flew out on Friday. The timing of this get-away could not have been better. Our hearts were still heavy for our friends and there were moments of tears over the weekend as we processed our disappointment with God not answering us in the way we'd hoped. (God is definitely big enough to handle my questions and frustrations.) But God made the Cabo sun beat down on us with healing power. We had an amazing time.

Bruce and Taylor are the parents of Lindsey Morgan Wilson (married to Peter who sings with us.) Bruce and Taylor have a place in Cabo at Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach and welcomed us with open arms. I had the honor of performing Peter and Lindsey's marriage ceremony in a beautiful vineyard in Sonoma, CA a couple of years ago. They were also there with us along with Peter's parents, Peter and Gail. It was fun to be with all of them and to get to spend quality time together and get to know Baby Braden better. What a cutie!!

Let me just say, I LOVE my new camera. I had so much fun taking pictures...I was a total dork. Thanks for indulging me...here are SOME of my favorites! :)

This picture was taken at sunset...completely unedited. The color here is God's doing.

We're back home now and so thankful for 4 days with friends and basking in the beauty of God's creation. Please continue to pray for The Bizaillion and Ross Families. They need our prayerful support. More info to come for financial donations to help David and Malaya.
