Beach Days

Me and my girlfriend Rae like to take our kids to the beach. Cold or Hot days, just as long as the kids are having fun and we can get out of the house. Last week it was HOT and yesterday it was overcast and COLD, until 5 that is. The sun finally came out and the clouds started to break apart. About 10 min after that a wedding party showed up to take their pictures on the beach. It was beautiful. God planned that wonderfully for them. So, after we watched them take pictures and leave, we got into the water. Our kids love the water and love dig holes in the sand. They also like to be goofy, you will see this in the pictures I post. Since I have to drive about an hour to get to the beach, we stay and eat dinner there. I have a little propane grill and we cook up hot dogs and then smores. It is a lot of fun. My oldest will start school monday, so he will miss out on the beach, because going on the weekend is crazy busy. Way to many people. Baby Marcus joined us as well, but slept the whole time. I think he likes the sound of the waves, reminds him of mommy tummy. The boys also made us a little sitting area. How sweet. Boys love to build. Nick is 14 and is great with my kids, 11 and almost 3. He is like the older brother that keeps them in line without tattling. Its great.
I am sure going to miss them when they move to Arizona. This is a horrible picture of me. It was the only one taken of us on this day so, I wanted to keep my blog in the moment.

God has blessed me with having Rae in my life. We have helped each other along the way in our friendship. I wish that I could of helped her become closer with God. I have tried to get her back on track. She just isn't ready. I will always be here for her and her family. I love them all.

My secret sister sent me a newsletter from ChristianityToday.com. Have you heard of it? I haven't had time to sit down and read it but, it looks great. That was very thoughtful of her. I am looking forward to more inspirational notes from her. I didn't think that being part of the secret sisters was going to be so rewarding. Surprise! Thank You Jesus for guiding me in signing up with the secret sisters. That is way all my Praise goes to YOU!
