Prague Pictures

I thought I would post some my favorite pictures from our trip to Prague. I'm sure as soon as Kate gets the computer back with the pictures, (I'm in AZ) she'll do a more comprehensive review and post tons more pictures (and videos?)...

I'll come back and add some commentary on my favorite parts of the trip as well...

Be blessed,

Jason

Don't you crave efficiency and order? Given my disposition and tendency toward things that are wasteful and frustrating, I constantly have this desire. We struggle so much to connect the dots, to make things work, and to keep things organized. We long for perfection, for it's fullness to be displayed (and one day it will happen). Until that day, it seems the best course of action is to let the creator of perfection and order, the author of our lives, help us through this fallen world. It's difficult but it's infinitely more difficult when we rely on ourselves for these things... and that is the crazy part- I (we?) do it all the time! We are very nearly content with inefficiency as long as we are the ones making it harder on ourselves- as long as we are in control, even to our detriment. My dad used to always say to me and my sister.. "you are killing me." I'm fairly certain that the cigarettes were killing him more than us (but then again, I'm not a parent yet). Do we see the double standard in our lives? It's selfishness. It's the desire to be in control. We have the right to self-destruct ourselves but when someone else does a fraction of the damage, all the sudden its unacceptable. God's yolk is easy, His burden is light. Are we willing to experience something more promising- stability, order, etc... at the cost of relinquishing our control? Trust me, I'm on the front lines of this battle... perhaps we are at war together.

Otherwise, Kate and I are doing well... having the time of our lives, I guess?

Did you guys watch the VP debate last night? I didn't get a chance to see it but I plan on doing so this weekend. What are your thoughts on Palin and/or Biden- two interesting characters I think. I just got my absentee ballot in the mail the other day and I'm still undecided.

Everyone should comment Kate and tell her she needs to make a new post.

Love you guys,
