					<description><![CDATA[When I was a kid, I remember putting on a pair of khaki pants and a green button-up, looking in the mirror, and thinking, I look like Jack Colton from Romancing the Stone.

Now, if you don’t remember that 1984 Rom-Com adventure classic with Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner… that’s okay. You’ll be just fine.

I loved that movie, and others like it, Indiana Jones and The Goonies. Over the years, that love for adventure films has carried through to National Treasure, Uncharted, and Fountain of Youth.

There’s just something about the idea that ordinary people can get swept up into something extraordinary. One minute they’re doing normal life; the next, they’re exploring ancient mysteries, uncovering hidden truths. Don’t we all want to be swept up in something exciting? And by “swept up in something exciting,” of course I mean watching other people be swept up while we’re comfortably at home.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This past week we went to Disney World.  Sarah and I both hadn’t been in about 25 years or more.  I remember the wonder and magic, the rides and more.  

It’s grown, it’s changed, and you no longer stand in incredibly long lines.

Don’t worry, there are still lots of strollers, lots of Mickey ears, lots of tears and exhaustion…and some kids are crying and exhausted too, lots of hopes and expectations, and lots of credit card debt.    

But now there are also virtual lines, and lighting lanes, and queue groups, and magic genie plus on a Disney World app that tells you wait times if you do stand in line, and gives you directions to where you want to go, and ability to make reservations, and mobile order food and it was my room key and more.  

In some ways, this feels almost nothing like the park I went to 25 plus years ago…and yet in other ways it is oddly familiar.  It’s just grown up.  ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Whenever we travel, inevitably someone in our house forgets something.  

A travel pillow.

Headphones.  

Deodorant.  

Winter coat.  

Kevin!

Just kidding, we haven’t left a kid home alone while we went galavanting in Europe…yet…

We know in the next several weeks people will be traveling.  

Some people will be coming to town for Spring Break.

Some people will be leaving town for Spring Break

Some people will be staying off 30A because of Spring Break.

Whatever the next few weeks hold for you, I want to let you know about a few things.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Over the past few weeks we had a house full of family, kids were off school, we had extra worship services with Christmas Eve, and less of our “normal” schedule.  

One of those days I got up early to spend some quiet time praying, reading, working, and writing.  

As soon as I got up, this miracle of a dog named Brittany followed me.  

She followed me as I snuck out of the bedroom.  

She followed me as I prepared coffee.  

She rang the bell and wanted to go out.  

She then barked because she wanted back in.  

She kept wandering to our bedroom door trying to get in to lay down with Sarah.  

She figured out how to open the door, hopped up on the bed and started to wake Sarah up.  I ran in, tried to pull Brittany out, and now I am on dog watch the rest of the morning.  

She kept ringing the bell to go outside.  

She then kept barking to get back inside.  

She then kept trying to get back into our room.  

This was on repeat for quite awhile.  ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Too many Christmases and Birthdays I am sneaking out the day before trying to buy really meaningful gifts for people.  There is really no way to get a meaningful gift at the grocery store or pharmacy on Christmas Eve.  My first Christmas with Sarah I bought her a build a bear and wrote her a poem, in which I think I said I would write poems for her forever…I’m pretty sure that was the last poem I ever wrote.  

Quit while you’re ahead, right?

					<description><![CDATA[Several years ago I tried doing the Whole30.  In case you don’t know what it is, you probably will not want to pay attention for a few moments.  The idea is that you take all the fun things…sorry…I mean…processed foods and foods we don’t “need” out of your diet and eat only lame things…sorry…I mean…whole foods for 30 days.  ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Sometimes it seems like it is feast or famine.

It is all or nothing.

It is chaos or calm.

This is Holy Week. A week that is set apart, a week that is specifically set aside to reflect upon what happened 2000 years ago in Jerusalem. A week with high highs and low lows.

During a week that is so big, that is so full, that we see so much of what God has done and is doing, it is also a week where we have so many people in town.

It is a bit of a feast, a bit of chaos, a bit of everything.]]></description>

"oh man, it is almost time to file my taxes…"]]></description>
