Christmas at The Broadmoor

A few weeks ago, Marc and I were invited to eat lunch at The Broadmoor. It is a beautiful resort in Colorado Springs and is well-known for its Christmas decor. Our friends, Bob and June Ewell, used to live in Montgomery and attended Frazer UMC. In fact, they were members of my parents' Sunday School class for many years, and they still keep in touch with friends from Frazer. The Ewells live in Monument, which is just north of the Springs and have been a great "home-town" connection for us while living out west.

When Mrs. Ewell suggested we eat lunch here, I was so excited! I wanted to make a trip to The Broadmoor during "the most wonderful time of the year" to look at the decorations. I thought it would be a great way to put Marc and me into the Christmas spirit since we weren't decorating our own house (such a bummer!) before we left for Alabama. And due to an out-of-town husband, I wasn't sure if we could squeeze a visit into our schedule before heading south. So...this worked out perfect! Not only did we eat a fabulous lunch and see festive decorations...we had wonderful fellowship with The Ewells.

I only took a few pictures while we were there, but I wanted you to get an idea of The Broadmoor during December. Note: the first three pictures were "borrowed". My photog skills are not that refined. :)



Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Ewell for a wonderful afternoon. We appreciate your heart for ministry and mission. Marc and I were blessed by your presence and encouraged by your words. May God continue to reveal His peace and joy to you during this holiday season!

Merry Christmas from The Broadmoor to you and yours! Onto the southeast...
