Day at the beach

ROCKPORT

We went up to Rockport Reservoir for the day and the kids had lots of fun playing on the beach and in the water.  Grady even rode on the tube and did not want to get off of it.

I absolutely love to just be on the beach enjoying the sun and the water.  It is probably one of my favorite things to do.

Molly & Me

This is Molly. 

We rescued her from the Murray shelter.  She is the most mello chill dog I have ever met.  I think she might be my soul dog mate!

I know I know, you can't believe I am saying this, but I am actually the one who took us to the shelter and decided to bring her home.  (what is wrong with me?)

She also LOVES the water.  We have always wanted a dog who wants to go in the lake, and now we have one.

We do not have Skeeter anymore.  We gave him to Jon's sisters family and he fits in with them very nicely.  He was just way too hyper for us.  We have decided we are not little dog people.   

Accidents & Trials

Many things have been happening around me to family & friends and friends of family and family of friends.

Here are things that have happened all in the past 2 weeks:

Quadruple Bypass Surgery

Suicide

Jet Ski accident

Twins trying to come too early

High fever causing seizure and ambulance ride

Broken bones

Drowning

There are so many things going through my mind. Heartache, worry, sorrow, and so many more emotions. And I am not even directly involved in any of this, so I can only imagine the emotions going on in them.

I have had all of these people and their families in my thoughts a and prayers. 
I know that God's will will be done and I know that he is always there and wants us to
"Be joyful always: pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Jesus Christ" (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)

If you would all put these people and their families in your prayers I would really appreciate it and I know God wants to hear from you no matter what is going on in your life whether good or bad, so make sure you are praying always.

Life is filled with highs and lows, and God is there during them all. At times His will for our lives is very clear and at other times I think He wants us to seek Him and wait for Him to make it clear. It's during the seeking and waiting that we must hold on to our hope in Christ and claim the peace He offers us.

**The will of God will never take you where the grace of God will not protect you**

Take me out to the ball game

BEES GAME

Saturday night we went to the Bees game.  Grady always says he wants "to go to da bees game" and gets so excited to go and then when we get there he is very wiggily and doesn't even watch the game.  He is so totally opposite of Hudson who has sat through movies, games, etc. since he was 2.  Good thing

he is such a cutie!

The famous chicken was at this game and was causing all sorts of havic.  Grady did watch that chicken closely and kept wanting to give him & the bee a hug.

After the game was over (which they lost) the kids got to run the bases

The big win

Jon's softball team won their first game.  It is the end of the season but we wanted at least 1 win. 

We were really excited, I had to take a picture of the score!
