CATCHING UP......

We are both STILL peeling from our trip...gross! Work is so busy too. And of course, THE WEDDING! I almost have the rehearsal dinner invitations complete and will send out this week. I hope I do not forget someone. Who is invited? Anyone helping in the wedding and anyone who is coming from out of town. So if you don't get one, and you fit in those categories....let me know!

Remember when I joined 2 years ago the MGMA-MO Board? I thought I would join and change these folks. Well, I failed. I am very glad to finish my 2 year seat this weekend. I will have one more chance to share the One I know, but thus far they are uninterested. I asked what we will be doing Friday night as a Board, and was told we will be calming the Conference Chairman down.....of course with alcohol, is what they meant! Again, I will excuse myself from this activity. I go to Tan Tara Friday, and the conference will not begin until Sunday night. At least Sunday night, there will be St. John's managers coming. Tuesday morning, I am DONE with the Board. I am sorry I did not accomplish my self-given task for Him, but maybe, just maybe, they saw Him in me. But then, rarely were they sober....

And of COURSE we agreed to do the Concession Stand again for 10th Inning Kids! We are excited (and CRAZY, I know). And I found a fabulous group to handle it the Saturday we will be tied up...you know, 06-07-08 CLINT'S WEDDING!!!!!

THE LAST OF THE PICTURES

Well, here are the last of the pictures. They were not as nice as the ones below, since they were taken from a disposable camera. Most were of the pool area of the hotel, which is right behind the private beach area from the pictures below. There were at least 3 pools, and 2 restaurants right there.

CB bought me another camera Friday night, so I would have a camera for all the wedding festivities. We had a shower from Jody's (Kristin's mom) friends, and it was very nice. I will blog those pictures soon. We are in full swing, the wedding is 7 weeks from Saturday!

STORMS

Being a TEXAN, I LOVE hearing that thunder all night. It makes for great sleeping.

I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE IT...AND I WENT

I am still in a quandry as to how I won this. But I did, and we went, and it was beautiful. I DID NOT get the flu (thanks for your prayers about THAT), and we made all flights (even though one we had 10 minutes to get to). After the last picture above, apparently my camera broke...which is VERY sad (as there is a wedding coming up). Anyway, the first six were views from our balcony. We arrived at night, and had a 60 minute ride to the resort. It was interesting, and I asked CB "where are we and how did we get here?". But as we pulled into Wyndham my fears were relieved. We couldn't see out so we did not see where we REALLY were until morning. The worst part was trying to adjust to the pace there. No one gets in ANY hurry. The bottom 3 pictures were taken as we laid on the beach, and this was our view. Someone got BURNT, and that was the last day we 'sunned'. Right behind us was the pool area, and I will blog that when I get my portable camera pictures back. We had wonderful meals, and we sat hours on that balcony reading and just watching the boats go by. When they came to pick us up, it was on one of those open buses. Again, no one is in a hurry, and the driver stopped at a roadside market (no one ASKED him to). I am thinking...HEY WE HAVE TO GET THROUGH CUSTOMS!! But again, all went well, and we had plenty of time.

We continually thanked the Lord, from Whom we know this trip came....

WE WERE LIKE LITTLE KIDS.....

We were like little kids all day Saturday. Starting early we were texting each other, counting down the hours until we were together (it had been several weeks). We went to Cracker Barrel and then to play cards, cheating included (right boys)? And apparently SOME could not remember what we were playing, so we had to get the blackboard out..... always fun times, lots of laughs, lots of food....

TRUTH PROJECT and BABYSITTING THE DOGS

This is a few pictures of Franklin and Colby (when Franklin was being good, which only happens when he is asleep!!) They were asleep on my lap!
Here are a few pictures of our weekly Truth Project, minus the Youngs. We really are enjoying the videos, and our time together! Thanks Arnolds for opening your home!
