We had a great trip away- even getting away into a Winter Storm, and sloshing around all weekend was worth it. Actually, though the weather added it's own inconvenient flavor, it was also beautiful- lots of white snow falling, Christmas music everywhere, cozy coffee shops, and Christmas shopping- it wasn't bad. I taught, we napped, we ate out, saw a movie, broke out the kids' Wii we'd just bought them (don't tell them. The blog is still kid-safe territory. I don't think they read it...), played it in our room until 2 AM, and put it back in the box for Christmas, we slept in, I made some big important business decisions, we did some nothing, Jim watched the Vikings play a terrible game, not to anyone's surprise, while I snagged amazing deals at Anthropologie and Pottery Barn.
It was good.
We also of course caught this. Actually, as I sat there, I realized it was a lot like A Prairie Home Companion for Christian intellectuals and hipsters. Lots of Toms, lots of Thirtysomethings. Music, words.
Derek Webb, Sandra McCracken and Robbie Seay & Co delivered as always, and Don Miller read some poetry and shared some great stories.
It lasted 3 hours, and honestly, it flew by. I'm so glad we made it.
