Disconnecting from the electronic world

Personal
Disconnecting from the electronic world

This spring Beth and I celebrated our 10-year wedding anniversary. Someone found an old wedding picture of us and tagged me on Facebook (are we friends?). That picture should be outlawed! I hope I look more cool today than I did back then!

Tomorrow we leave for vacation to celebrate our anniversary. I told Beth that I have been thinking about this big trip for a few years and I can’t believe it’s finally here. We’re doing a European tour – Venice, Rome, Pisa, Spain, the whole 9 yards.

I am going to try doing something on this trip (although Evan Doyle doubts I can really do it). I am going to disconnect from the electronic world. I’m taking my laptop and iPhone, but I’m not going to stress out about the blog, Twitter updates, Facebook and email. If you see a few new blog posts, it’s not because I added them! Evan will be adding some posts while I am gone. And if you email me, you probably won’t hear from me because my assistant, Lara, is handling my email while I’m gone.

I’m jazzed about getting away and spending some QT with the most important person in my life after God – Beth. We will miss our litle Luci to pieces, but we know she’ll be in good hands with her grandmas and grandpas.

I’ve gotta run. I need to make sure I packed my toothbrush. See you in two weeks.

    I cannot tell you how happy for you I am and that you are doing this. Being in ministry “lots” of years…enough said about that…I can definately say it is so important that you do unplug and focus only on your family. Ministry will still be there when you get back. You are doing such a wonderful job for the Kingdom but we all need quiet time away. You have an absolutely wonderful time with your beautiful family!!!!
