Life at 7000 feet

Well, for all you folks suffering in the south in the 90+ degree April temps, just know that we didn't make it out of the 40s yesterday (in the 50s today). Last night at 9:30, it was 27 degrees outside. How's that for April weather? Anyone wanna move to Colorado? Or come for a visit?

We got our taxes finished up late Sunday night and mailed on Monday. What a relief that was. We got a small refund on our federal return, but we owed the state of Colorado. Our federal refund was enough to cover what we owed and still come out $50 ahead. We were thrilled!

Just when we begin to think that all the freelance work has dried up, God seems to show up for us in big ways. Like yesterday. John got a call from an editor wanting him to write a book on Christian denominations. Back in December, he wrote on one worldviews (he actually did a re-write) and this is to be a book in the same line. I think he's going to give it a shot. Exciting, huh? We're grateful for any and all work that comes his way.

Don't you like it when John posts on here? I love it, but can't seem to get him interested in doing it too often. I was laughing out loud as he was typing the post about Sarah's easter vomiting episode. I'm going to stay on him (nag, nag, nag) to share on this blog more often!
