We have something to look forward to this April we are all excited about. We haven't ever been on a family vacation with all the kids. Being sick has made that not a priority or even an option. We have a 16 and 17 year old now and it won't be long before they begin leaving our nest. Grandpa and Grandma gave the kids and us some money for Christmas and we decided to pool it and buy Silver Dollar City season passes and go together. Lucky for us, this year anyone born in 1976 gets a free season pass from SDC! (Me!) Also, each season pass comes with several free passes for a day for a friend. So, we were able to buy only 4 season passes and we will be able to get the other 3 people in our family in for free for 3 days.
So, we reserved a cabin for 4 nights that sleeps 8 and is backed up to 400 acres of Ozark woods between SDC and Eureka Springs, AR. It's a house, not a condo, so we will have space for us, no annoying neighbors and we will be able to cook meals for ourselves there. Interestingly, there were issues getting the rental agreement and through calls to the owner, we've discovered the cabin owner is sick like me, is also a Christian and he is from Oregon! He's excited to meet us and we plan on visiting a bit when we go.
We all needed something to look forward to and hopefully everything will work out so that our family vacation is as relaxing and enjoyable as we hope and that I'm well enough to go.
Thanks for caring about my family and praying for us.
