Catch up

So I really shouldn't be posting with all this other stuff i'm doing, but I just wanted to put a little word in about Easter Break! I was blessed to catch a ride home and again spent about 16 hours in a car. Got to see the bear and Mom and Dad. Mom and I took a trip to the beach as dad had to take care of the golf boys. The tide goes so far out, you can practically walk in the ocean! It's incredible! You can also see all the live snails and creatures, there's a bit of mucking involved and you have to watch out for clams and make sure the water isn't too deep.




Mom and were a funny crew as I didn't want to go then we get half way across the ocean and mom doesn't want to finish. We got across, so that must mean we make a good team. It was so funny to see people setting up camp half way into the ocean, even looked like you could make it to the other side but that was a bit far away and deep. We walked to see some beautiful mansion homes and made it home for dinner and a movie!


On Easter we went to a service and heard Vicky Beeching. I had never heard of her but was so blessed by here songs: The Wonder of the cross and Breath of God. From what I heard, 10 people were saved in that service alone, and there were five total at that church-Hallelujah praise the Lord! It was powerful image to realize that if you are choosing to wait to decide about God, you are choosing to deny God. Also realizing His power and the extant of his love to put up with the crucifixion and all involved. I wonder how many people He touched in His last few days. Everyone He encountered He had an affect on, quite a challenge. You never know what affect you may have on people!




After church we had lunch with dad at the golf course because he had to take care of the golf boys and then mom and I went to Savannah. We drove 40 minutes just for some pralines, I just love them! If you can get a sample when they're warm..mmm! Nothing like it! The river walk was beautiful too!
I almost forgot...at the beach we played with the crabs. When you are really quiet they pop out and dig their holes but if you stand, move, or make a sound, they all disappear! It's so fun!
