My last 3 weeks of traveling and speaking have been crazy. This has meant I’ve spent most of my time communicating with Brandi via text messages when time would allow.
I love texting but it’s a sorry excuse for the real thing.
Yesterday afternoon I took a break from my message prep (I’m speaking this morning at the Radicalis Conference here at Saddleback Church around 10:30 PST. You can watch live HERE) and we headed to Laguna Beach.
So thankful for a few hours away from it all to recalibrate, renew, and just remind ourselves of how blessed we are.
Tom travels a lot, and texting, skype and phone chats are vital to keep communication and connection, but I totally agree, TIMEOUT’s are VITAL! I cherish my time with my husband, who after 20+ years of marriage, he is still my best friend! It helps me to be a better mom, wife, and person. You give so much to so many, with such a fast growing church, it is so nice to see that you continue to make family your priority, and keep your marriage strong. I also love that Jett is tweeting his Mom, very cool! Great pics!
Have a good time you two deserve it!
Does Brandi still pack for you?
Yes she does.
Hope you’re having a beautiful time enjoying each other.
Those pics are so old school! Love it! Happy you guys are getting to spend some time together where Skype isn’t involved!
Good luck at the conference!
California is gorgeous. I hope you two really get to enjoy your time here. I love my state. Will be watching Radicalis live and praying for you today!
Beautiful pics. The real thing is far better than the fake thing, that’s for sure.
So good to see you both spending some quiet time to yourselves, it’s so important!
You are a great pair! Thanks for modeling this priority even though it costs money and is tougher to do with your schedule Love you guys.
Pete,
This is the most important thing you can do
Take good care…
Love you guys!!!! So glad you had some sweet down time together!! Praying for your talk today!
much peace,
vic
that looks like a great way to enjoy each other. glad you have had this chance.
I was at Laguana Beach once, beautiful. God is good. Enjoy
I’m sure the time together would have been just as good even if the location was not as beautiful as that one. My question is who took the pictures?
Looks like you guys had a great time…I love the Pacific coast…absolutely beautiful!
And…great talk today, Pete! I have pages of notes…pages!
I hope you get some more “timeouts” in the near future!
Is there any way to go back and watch your session at Radicalis? My husband watched and loved it!
By the way, we visited Laguna Beach when our family had the opportunity to travel to CA with my husband (work conference) in 2009. It is so beautiful, and I’m so glad you got to spend some quality time with your wife there! Great pics and memories!
