Making Memories

I am blessed to have parents who made memory-making a priority in our lives. I have so many fond memories of various vacations, holidays, beloved family rituals, and isolated special events from childhood on up. My husband has a similar history. This convinces us to do the same for our children. I am also blessed to have the Mahaneys' example of intentionality with regards to...well, to just about anything. From sports and the first day of Spring to Sunday morning and significant birthdays, this family is serious about investing both fun and faith into their family. We are going on vacation this week. Kind, generous friends of ours are allowing us to stay in their condo at Ocean City, MD. By God's grace we hope to follow the example of our parents, and the Mahaneys and make the most of this unique opportunity. If you think of it, would you pray that we would be able to carry out our simple plans to bless our children this week.

Let us know how it goes w/ the kiddos and some of the things you planned so we can "steal" from you to use w/ our own kids.
