Vacation!!!
Hi everyone! The entire Cotten clan has been at the beach this week and it has been great. I don’t think we have ever done this before, where we’ve gotten ALL of us together at once in the same place for an entire week! We’ve all needed this rest and relaxation so much, and I for one would like to propose that we do this next year too, except for TWO weeks!!!! We’ll see. For now I just wanted to give you a quick update with a few pictures. Not the best quality pictures because they were taken with my computer, but it is a little glimpse into our world this week.
Here is the view from the front of our house…

we do the beach with Thom's family every year!! There are now 26 of us if we all show up,lol. It is amazing because they (we) are all practicing authentic Christianity….so everyone is serving and helping and loving one another…it is pretty phenomenal. The added benefit is the multitude of conversations that are going on at any one time! You can get in on theological debates, or homeschooling conferences, recipe swaps, or creative job hunting idea exchanges…okay there are a few “share with your cousin” discussions too!!
I love my family. can ya tell?
What a great week it was! I love remembering through these photos, Jess! Thanks!
Looks like you all had a good vacation! I wish that I could go to the beach for the week! I am looking forward to the conference.
