Costa Rica Surf Trip
We have landed in beautiful Costa Rica! The plan is a surfing trip to mark my 30th birthday. So far my fist impressions of Costa Rica is a lush, beatiful country with very friendly people. Our first surfing lesson was today, and the surfing was great! We are planning to live it up in this little beach town of Tamarindo. Carpe Diem!

A Happy Day for Jill and Dave
We went to Kansas City for our friends Dave and Jill’s wedding last weekend. The wedding was a wonderful celebration of Jill and Dave’s relationship. It was nice to be apart of Dave and Jill’s community and wish them blessings on their new life together.
The wedding had the backdrop of fall colors. Fall is my favorite season in the Midwest. I love the crisp climate and the palate of vibrant colors as the leaves change colors. I think its amazing that those vibrant colors are always there in the leaves, but only revealed when the chlorophyll in the leaves fades and dies. For me, it is a reflection of the incredible beauty that God has left imprinted in even the most simple things of nature.
We also got to connect with our good friends Jeff and Amy. They are such a fun couple and we share a lot of interests with them. We went on a hike with Jeff through the fall foliage in Weston, Missouri. To my delight, the bluffs of the river were a glow with golden leaves.
