SPRING BREAK

Spring break is coming to an end and we are exhausted. Our trip began with an overnight stay at Kalahari in Sandusky. The kids had a blast. I highly recommend this place for a quick getaway. It also motivated me to get back to running. I did not enjoy putting on a swimsuit. The best part of the stay was the way they took care of its guests. The resort goes above and beyond what is expected. They making staying there enjoyable and easy. There are a lot of places (including churches) that could learn from a place like Kalahari.

The next night we were off to Bethel College to visit Ashley. Here are some highlights:
1) We had a chance to have a wonderful dinner with Ashley and Allison Schuck. It it always great to catch up with Allison and to hear about her plans and possible internship.

2) Our Allison had a chance to stay on campus with Ashley and experience college life. I think she saw some real benefits of attending a Christian College.

3) I had a chance to attend class with Ashley. It was her Bible class with a professor that students stand in line in order to get a spot in this class on registration day. I can see why! Dr. Bob brings the Bible to life with his enthusiasm and relaxed teaching style. He made us feel very welcomed. He had us stand and he even asked Allison to "scope" the class for any boys that she would like to meet. I immediately pulled her down in her seat (ha ha). Allison has grown into a beautiful young lady and no mom wants to rush the dating process. I don't think asking her to wait until she is 30 is too much. ha ha

4) Next stop was Chapel. It was great. They had a guest musician who sang about inner beauty. (my passion)

5) Later that night we fixed dinner for 18 college students. Boy can they eat. We had fun doing this and the best part was spending time with them and hearing about what God is doing in their life. Out of 18...almost all of them having future plans to go into ministry. One guy, who is only 21, will be preaching this Sunday at a church.

All in all, it was a great spring break. We enjoyed spending time with my mom and my sister. Now...laundry, rest ...and back to school.
