The Wonder of It All....

We journeyed north for our 30th Wedding Anniversary and it was awesome scenery. Crystal Mountain view was something I've never experienced at the peak of Fall during the year.

Our family is experiencing so many happenings. Jodi and Christopher are watching as God's little miracle in Jodi's tummy grows and grows. The nursery is painted and the closet cleaned out. The crib is up and a dresser / changing table is being created.
Chris is diligently working on the last phase of his masters degree.

In NY our Newlywedds, Justin & Tiffany, (celebrated Six month Anniv.), successfully spruced up their laundry room and replaced the washer & dryer that were soiling and eating their clothing with a new set.
Previously we visited them and Don, Jay & and Tiffany installed a beautiful new kitchen window.

It is in awesome wonder that I see everyone learning new capabilities. We all have inside of us abilities to start and finish tasks we never thought possible.

My rush to accomplish my to do list each day almost squ ished my priceless time with God.
I thank Him for all that He is. God knows all that I am. Thankfully I am His.
Hunger for His will brings direction and renewing His desires in me to love and encourage others around us.

GREAT NEWS... our niece, Emily, is coming to our area to student teach! This Thursday is her interview. She will be with our dogs while we are at beach this winter.
