Six Bountiful Years

Today is our sixth anniversary. Every day I thank God for the relationship he drew us to and for the great joy we have in our marriage. We went away for the night/day (20 hours, to be exact) and had a great time. This was our first night away from the kids. Carter Caves State Park in KY is about an hour away from home; the drive was lovely. We got there at 8:00 last night and went for a short hike in the woods. We stayed in the lodge hotel in the middle of the state park. This morning we tried to sleep-in and then went for another hike along streams and up through waterfall caverns. Every view was lovely and interesting and we saw no one else on the trails. We took a tour of one of the caves, ate lunch beside a stream, and walked through another wide stream to get closer to more falls recessed in a cavern. (Yep, wet feet. It was worth the view!) What a GREAT time away! Sara stayed with the kids and they all seemed really happy with their day with her.
