Not Ready to Blog Yet

Our vacation was amazing and restful. I’m not ready to blog yet because I’m so mellow and pondering some big life decisions that make it hard to write about trivial things.

Off to Maui

We leave tomorrow morning for Maui and the place we are staying is a surprise to Bea, but I will tell the blogosphere. If you were to see my wife for any reason today, don’t tell her that we are staying at the Grand Wailea Hotel.

This is the view from the center of the hotel down the fountains toward the ocean.

It has waterslides and a lazy river. Check them out in the next two pics.

This looks like an awesome place to chill in the evening.

I think the sunsets will be pretty amazing.

Yeah, I guess you could say that I’m pretty excited. We fly out tomorrow morning. All we have left to do is pack. I can already feel the tension coming out of my shoulders.
You probably won’t hear from me until next Saturday. As they say, “Aloha!”

Overwhelmed

Let’s just say that my brain is already in Maui. We leave Saturday morning and I can’t wait. I still have to read about 200 pages on ecclesiology today and type a position paper on the key issues related to the church. I basically have to accomplish that between 12:45 and 3:00pm today. I’m finding school to be rewarding on one level and horribly boring on another level. I dread having to go each week. It’s a complete discipline to not drop out.

We also have a lot going on to get ready for our trip and have our parents ready to watch Gracie. I can’t complain about that, but it is just another thing to do before the end of the day tomorrow.
