This summer is simply flying by.
We have been busy day in and day out just being. And just enjoying the lazy days of
summer. No rushing out the door, no
making lunches before the sun comes up, casually working on summer workbooks,
reading in the middle of the day, spontaneous plans- life is good in the
summer!
I joined a bible study on Gideon by Priscilla Shirer. Absolutely blew me away. It’s the kind of stuff that meets you right
where you are, full of conviction, truth and wisdom. I’m so grateful that I said yes to this study
this summer. It’s like a whole other
post just on the study and what it’s done in my life.
We traveled down to Corpus Christi in June and experienced
the gulf. And lots and lots of
jellyfish. Gross. It was a great getaway. Not sure that we are totally “beach”
people. We kept finding ourselves at the
hotel pool. I’m pretty sure we still have
sand in the car….it never goes away.
Earlier this month we visited a friend’s ranch. Now folks, let me tell you…there is no place
that we've been here in Texas quite like this ranch. It’s beautiful-incredible house, serene pond,
rolling hills, peaceful and perhaps best of all, no cell reception. Our little family had such a fantastic time playing,
laughing, quiet time with God, fishing, swimming, swapping stories, fireworks,
cooking out, rides on the tractors, pulling fish hooks out of dogs, oh wait
that was just ours. But it was just what
the doctor ordered.
We’ll be wrapping up this month with our anniversary and K’s
birthday. Crazy.
