We took our first family vacation in a long time during spring break, enjoying a week with grandma Terry in Phoenix, AZ. Perhaps the highlights of the trip included our encounters with creation. Every Music Together lesson begins with the song, “Hello, Everybody!” Someday I may create a special page for family and ministry videos but for now you can watch this clip of Jana and Max sledding in my parents’ pasture with about 30 miniature horses. |
