Does Life Get Any Better?

My 3rd year anniversary at work rolled around and that means my vacation time renewed. I get 2 weeks every year -- which will roll over if I don't use it. To date, I've always used my vacation for some reason or another...mostly a day here, a day there. The only longer stretches I've used in my time with the company has been in 2003 when I took several days for a family vacation and earlier this year when I used nearly all my two weeks for Hannah's birth. Now that I have more time, I decided to kick out of the office for a couple of days and relax. We decided a few weeks back to take some time and go to Val's folks over in East Tennessee for a weekend. It's her dad's birthday this weekend so we decided it would be a good time to go. It's been Easter since we were there and I hate the fact that we don't get to go more often so it was time -- past time really. So, I took two days off (Friday and Monday) and even though we will only be at her folks' place until tomorrow (Sunday), life doesn't really get any better. We get to relax, have some great food (her mom is a phenomenal cook!), the kids get to spend time with Grandpa and Grandma, the scenery is awesome and, well, no work. God's blessings are overflowing!
