Vacation 2011

This is the first time in years that Steve and I have gone on vacation.  We have taken short trip to Branson, Mo, Dallas, Tx.  We actually took a week this time.  We went outside of Pensacola, Fl to Perdido Key.  It was one of the most relaxing trips we have ever taken.

It rain on us Saturday on our way there and Sunday our first full day.  We went to church and lunch. After lunch it cleared up and we went swimming.

The next day we went the the Navel Aviation Museum. It was so cool.  They boys throughly enjoyed it.  I even thought it was neat.  They had a play area for kids and all the airplanes.  They even had part of ones that you can get in.  That was their favorite part.  They would sit there and pretend they were flying through the big blue skies.



If you are ever in that area I definitely recommend stopping by there and seeing the museum.  If you go on certain days you can see The Blue Angles practice.  We went and did that the next day and the boys loved it.  It was their favorite part.  They got their airplanes that we bought them from the museum and were pretending to be the Blue Angles.  The museum even has a cafe where you can eat filled with all kind of memorabilia. That is where we at lunch on day.

They rest of our trip was spent at the beach and pool.  We went out to eat a couple of times.  We at at Flounders and Peg Leg Pete's.  Both places were wonderful in their own way.  It was a wonderful and relaxing vacation.   We are hoping to do it again in a couple of years.

The boys had never been to the beach, so they were so excited about our vacation. I am going to post some more pictures later. I think it was worth the trip.

sorry it took so long.

WOW!  It has been three months since I have updated my blog.  We haven't had internet access so that had contributed to it.  When I have had internet access, it has never been convenient to blog.

We have now been living in Sapulpa, OK, for three months now.  I can now say that everyone is adjusted to living here.  They boys were throwing big tantrums when Steve was living and that how now stopped.  They now give him hugs and kisses when he leaves.  It makes our lives a lot more peaceful.  Levi and Micah are both looking forward to starting school in the fall.  (which is really just a couple of weeks away! Can you believe it!)

We have had a very busy summer, with VBS, youth camp, and a fireworks stand.  It has flown by.  It was all a lot of work but very worth it.  I have been back to see my mom and they while Steve was at youth camp.  It was a very enjoyable visit.  I just wish it didn't take so long to get there. The boys still go around singing the song from VBS.  They loved it and had so much fun!

We all love living here and feel blessed to be here.  We really and truly enjoy being the youth pastors.  We love each and everyone of the kids.  We can't wait to see what God does in their lives.  God has some awesome things in-store for these kids.

We also went on our fist family vacation this year to Florida.  It was wonderful!  I will blog about it with pictures later.  Now sure when but later. I have a very full rest of the week.  I have to get ready to send the boys to my mom, and Steve and I are getting ready for National Fine Arts.  It is in Phoenix, AZ.  We have never been there or apart of National Fine Arts.  We are really looking forward to it.  Hopefully since we now have internet access I can update more.

Thank you all of my friends and family who have been praying for us during this time of adjustment and change. It is greatly appreciated. Now what I am I going to do while the boys are in school.  My world is going to change even more!
