We're Back!

We have safely returned from vacation.

It was a truly great week. The pool was literally outside our back door. We spent hours and hours there. The other hours were spent jumping in the waves and digging in the sand. The only slight casualty was a jellyfish sting to Dawson but he was a real trooper and I learned a method of dealing with the sting that worked wonders.

Valdosta (where Nelson and I headed without the kids on Thursday) was also wonderful. Nelson's best friend got married in the church where my brother is assigned so not only did I get to witness and serve the altar for a dear friend's wedding, but I also got to see my brother do his first wedding.

Thanks for all of your prayers. I had a fairly good week. I think I paid the price yesterday and today with two fairly bad days. Maybe my body is just yearning to be at the beach again.
