Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb is a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one's youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them; they shall not be ashamed, but shall speak with their enemies in the gate.

Psalm 127:3-5

Day 5, Tuesday, December 16 La Veta Pass, Tammy's

We made it to Colorado Springs! La Vita pass was a breeze...metaphorically speaking.
And it was beautiful too!
We were blessed by the hospitality of a warm family Mama and Daddy know in Colorado Springs. Tammy Maltby, who led Mama to Christ when they were in college had us over to her home for dinner. The fellowship was a blessing; and it was so much fun to get to know her family. Fun is the right word. There was never a dull moment. :) We got to meet Tammy's husband, Jerry, her children, and her little grandson, who was a baby and therefore the star of the show a good part of the time. :) We talked about dreams and personalities during the delicious enchilada dinner. One of the six arrows, we won't say which, has a similar personality to Tammy's... and was the favored guest thereafter. :)
And tonight, the boys are swimming in the pool at our hotel...I don't know how they thought of bringing their suits along. I didn't. I mean, it is December, and we aren't exactly on the Equator. But they did think of it. Mama, Aubrey and I are enjoying a girl chat with our feet up (when we can bear to sit down). Goodnight :)
