navy ships are big

I was driving down our street and noticed this huge navy ship moving by! By the time I parked, grabbed my camera and took the picture, it was long gone, but I wanted to show you anyway. Large ships like this (400+ feet long) come in and out of our little channel quite often. The Navy Magazine is where they keep all the ammunition, so all the boats have to come and fill up. 

Just a quick update. I have been so encouraged the last few days - I got to talk to Nick! He called when the boat arrived into their newest port and I have been able to hear his voice. It is so amazing to hear the voice of someone you love so dearly!! The Lord has really been blessing him with cool community, so thank you for praying!! They are going to be traveling again this week, so you can continue to pray for his health (no sea-sickness!) and for more Adventures for him while they travel!

(i love you babe!!!)

    I am so glad you got to talk to Nick. I remember when David called home while in port at an "unknown location". He couldn't tell me where. I wanted to hold onto every word. I am glad you were given this gift.

    I am also excited to hear he is having good community. I know God is on the move...

    Praying for you and your Nick.

Christmas in July

All of our belongings arrived this morning! We have it all! Big truck, three huge crates and a team of 5 showed up on the doorstep at 8:45 AM this morning. They must have thought I was weird - as each item came through the door I got the hugest smile! Like "oh, there is the table from the Hargroves...and there are the couches...boxes of wedding gifts I have not opened yet!..." you get the idea. Here is our bedroom before... and after! Living room before... And after! Kitchen before... And After!! The movers only took one hour to get it all into the house. The first thing I did when they left? Sat down on the couch in the living room. I just remember sitting on them at the parent-Dellar's house and all the fun times I have had at their house; the BBQs, the prayer nights and Bible studies, cuddling up on them when Nick was gone (in Kona, Cape May, Virginia, Honolulu). And NOW I am sitting on them in our house here! I just couldn't believe it. THEN the thought entered my...

The Best Things In Life Are For Free

Well not completely free, actually this chair was $2.00 at a garage sale down the street, and the paint was $10.00 at the Home Depot. the cool life ring we found in the dumpster, and its from a Panamanian Ship, so really it is the only thing that was for free. so all together I guess $12.00 is not so bad for a little beach flare around the house. The drift wood and coral were free! Here you go Mom just like I promised, my newly reorganized closet. And for all you male bloggers out there (So you don't pull my Man-card) My Alpha Black -Dual weaver tactical rail mounts with fore grip. -Raised scope rail mounting system. -Nc Star Red dot sight. -And a Black Hawk 1pt tactical sling.
