5th Anniversary Celebration!

We've been having a great summer at Gull Lake, but we decided to take this past week off and get away into the mountains for our 5th anniversary.
On our wedding day, our good friend Jeff Dyer spoke to us about how we should live our married lives out as eagles, soaring on thermals, allowing God to direct and lift us up, rather than acting like ducks who look as if they're struggling just to get off the water, flapping and making a fuss under our own strength.
As a symbol of our desire to allow God to direct and "keep us in the air" we went tandem paragliding! That's the one where you use a "wing" that's sort of like a parachute and run off the side of a cliff into mid-air, then, just like a hang-glider, you look for thermals to lift you higher.
Here's a slide show to show you what we got our selves into! It was amazing!



We're really thankful that we live in a place where we can have experiences like this creating memories and renewing our oneness.

That's all for now, but you should be getting a prayer and support update from us, via email, in the next day or two! Thanks for reading!
