Slam Dunk!

This is what I had the awesome privilege of doing yesterday morning as I baptized my nephew - Cole Berryman - at First Baptist Church - Russellville, Arkansas.

What great fun! (And I'm thinking that I might start wearing a robe!)

Then we celebrated with about 4 more hours of everybody being dunked in the lake . . .

We had an awesome time here! Thanks Brad, Jolyn & Cole!!

But all things end . . . and today we head back towards the Sparkling City by the Sea!

Lake Action!

We had a great day on Lake Dardanelle . . . and here's some shots to prove it . . .

The big 5-person 'hot dog' was awesome . . . I laughed so hard watching the kids that my stomach hurt

. . . and then watching Sarah ski was worth the whole trip!

Relaxing by the Pool

Yes, this is me right now . . . relaxing by the pool in Russellville, AR . . . We're having a great time, I think my mind finally hit 'vacation mode' late yesterday . . .

And yes, that is a Razorback hat I've got on . . . a fan for the week . . . Sooooey Hogs!

R & R

This morning we leave for a family week of R&R at Cindy's sisters house in Russellville, Arkansas. Can't wait to get there and start relaxing (is there such thing as relaxing while you're traveling to your destination??).

Gonna be an awesome time as all 6 of us will be together . . .

Ahhhh 70 degrees!

Corpusites, enjoy our 70 degree winter weather!

These are pics from Cindy's sister in Russelville, Arkansas THIS morning!
(That's our nephew Cole . . . and yes, for those of you who knew the Wojteks this is where they moved to last week -- so this is what they've been welcomed by!)

When I look outside it's hard to believe that these pictures are of the same planet!!

What incredible variety in God's creation!
