An Overdue Update

Hope ya'll are having a simply wonderful summer! We lost our thingy that downloads our pictures on the computer so today, my mom and I finally got another one! Sooo... without further ado, here's the 'fun event' as promised! And what my family and I have been up to these last few months!

We went to a Jerusalem Market, set in the time of Jesus!!!

My mom and I picked up cousin Haydon.

{Haydon's many faces : )}


They had a rock climbing wall.

And all the little "David's" tried to kill Goliath.

"He's too far away!"


:: My Favorite Part ::

WE ROAD A CAMEL!!! (how cool is that!?)




The whole ride, Haydon was in awe and kept saying, "Wow, this is so cool!"



One of the smug ol' camels. I love that face he's making. ; )

There was a small booth with goats and huge chickens.

And this guy. Does anyone know what kind of animal it is??? I'd love to know!

There was a skit played by these men.

As you can tell, it was pretty funny. : )

"Hail Caesar!" 
After we took this picture, the Roman Guard went over to a tax collector and I heard him proudly say "We get new recruits all the time."

There were crafts.

A little lone boy...

eating a chicken leg...

in a crowded market place in Jerusalem.

The End.

And here's where we've been this summer:
At the Lake!

Adrian and I.

Cousin Dylan and Benjamin.

Dylan loves swimming.

Adrian wasn't so sure. : )

Isn't this place beautiful?

And then we went camping up in the North GA mountains.

Dad, Benjamin and Dylan went looking for a river which was suppose to be near the cabin. They did find it, but got hopelessly lost in the process.

THE TRIUMPHANT RETURN
 It took a long time for them to find their way home but....
Soaking wet, battered and bruised they returned.


We went whitewater rafting on the Nantahala River.






It was the first time Dylan had been rafting and he loved every minute of it.


Blessings!

Of Sunshine and Seashore

We had a glorious time at the beach last week! My family and I went to Amelia Island, FL and stayed in a beautiful condo 2 blocks from the ocean!



The shore was covered with seashells!

A small wave

This is not a sea turtle. A man came by and showed my family this little guy. He had found it by the shore and explained that the turtle had wondered from the mainland.
It sure was cute!

We took a tour of the downtown and boat docks.

Sleepy baby.

A tranquil sunset over the harbour.


I love taking pictures of ropes. ; )

I'm Really Off!!!

Now I'm really off! See you dear folk in a week!
Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.
"With Christ as my vessel I can smile at the storm!"
In Christ,

I'm off...

. . . to the ocean!!! I won't be back for a while and I shall greatly miss reading all of your encouraging posts! It will be something I shall eagerly look forward to on my return!


Many blessings dear readers!
