2007 is a big year in our family: Scott and I already celebrated our 20th anniversary. But since we were married the year that both sets of parents reached their 30th anniversaries, that means that 2007 is a major Jubilee. Scott’s parents are hosting us as well as his sister’s family for a week in Switzerland to honor their 50th wedding anniversary. Yes, you can suspend all pity for the next week, we are headed to a chalet accessible only by train in a mountain valley near Interlaken. I do feel a twinge of guilt, but then again many of the images of the presence of Jesus involve parties and wine, celebration and feasting. . . . So we leave behind our team and work and fly off tonight to a long awaited week of reunion and beauty. I only wish we could have enjoyed this milestone with my parents as well.
No guilt needed. Enjoy away!
ReplyDeleteI always find it tough to leave work behind but the Irish in general do this very well.
ReplyDeleteThe idea of resting is very biblical.
I pray you all returned refreshed.
Congratulations to Scott's parents and you both!
