Here we go . . .

Our goal yesterday was to get everyone outfitted with rollerblades, so we could all go rolling around together. Nice theory. India is crusing along while Gary runs, and they are miles ahead. Noah and Ezra take off by themselves while Judah and I are still trying to cross the street! We finally do, and we get to the back of a fire station and just go round and round in their lot. We really never made it to the bike path at all. We were kind of getting it, we thought, until we hit a downward slope, and did you know, that the breaks don't really break on those things? Don't tell me they work, cause they really don't. And concrete is so unforgiving. So, yes, we discovered that one really does need gloves and knee pads if you don't know what you're doing. And I also discovered that maybe I am better suited to running rather than rolling.

We spent yesterday evening with our friends from Estes Park, Texas and Missouri. Fun, fun, fun. They are all wonderful families and we had a really great time. So utterly amazing that we were all here together at the same time - completely unplanned on our parts. Incredible, God is.

Today, we plan to head over the Rockies. It's to be 100 degrees in Grand Junction today - oh my!! But it's the dry heat, you know, so it shouldn't be too bad. :) We just pray our suburban doesn't overheat again, and we make it there before nightfall. I'll let you know how that pans out.

Well, take care and keep in touch everyone!

Blessings,
jill and all
