Fun in the Sun!

We are down to two puppies now and they are the boys. They are so funny...they love to chase Benji around and watch him act all "macho". You can almost see them laughing when he turns on them and pretends to be grumpy. He still isn't sure about why these little guys follow him around and try to catch his tail. Bella just watches and grins....probably thinking"your turn!". LOL We are getting ready to head to the beach with all of our grandkids and their parents and our oldest son. We will have a full week of beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Lots of beach combing and table talks and late nights. We are looking forward to our time together. Hopefully our puppies will all be sold by then and maybe we can take everyone out in the sailboat one day during the week. God is using these kiddos in a wonderful way, and He is letting us "know" it. Praise to you Lord.This is the house we get to be in for a week....Can't wait!

Wow It's been a while since I last wrote

Well I could tell all about what has been going on, but the journey is still going, lol. We are preparing to send our beautiful daughter and her family off into the missionary field. Not that we have anything to do with actually sending them off, but we have to say goodbye. God has surely taken me out of my comfort zone in the past few years and this one is proving to be no less comfortable. But He is a mighty God and He does always have perfect timing, even though it isn't mine, lol.


Kiddos just havin' fun in the water!
We are blessed with family and six of the most beautiful grandchildren in the world. ( no I am not a bit biased) I am posting some more pictures of the grand puppies and some of my grandbabies, which I got from my lovely daughter's site, sorry Heather, yes Mom is stealing some of your awesome photographs. I am also posting some of the beautiful sunrises and sunsets in BC and in Kemah, so bare with me. We are in Kemah at this time, and the RV is in Bridge City, so hmmmm.....where do we live again? Wow, I thought the crazy time was over after the holiday, ...but it just keeps on giving. LOL
Our beautiful daughter and her family...Aren't those just the cutest kids you ever saw!


Cozumel sunset in December

Beautiful Cozumel in December
We are in the midst of caring for five little Maltese and preparing to sell them, and letting go of yet another thing.
Sweet puppies just waking up.
Sunset on Cow bayou from our parents backyard. Beautiful!
God's beautiful handiwork
Amazing....breathtaking sunset from the back yard


Sometimes I think, "I might as well go sailing into the ocean with 'rod" it wouldn't be any less disconcerting ( is that a word?). Life is good, even though we have no idea what is coming next we are moving right along.

Its Been a While (We are in Natchitoches, La)










Wow! Where to start...hmm! Well we are in Natchitoches, La, and if you guys aren't sure where that is, .... hmmmm, well have you ever seen "Steel Magnolias"? Now I have actually gotten to see the house. ( I got a picture),



lol. I hope to eat one of the infamous 'meat pies' I have heard so much about. The cobblestone street is one of those things I just had to


walk on ( and no Heather, I didn't even trip ..now how about that). I got to go to the museum where Jean Batiste' (not sure if this is spelled right) had his army. There is so much history in this town, whew! I am tired just thinking about it. I got to walk the cobblestone street while eating a fresh crossiant, how is that for multi-tasking? I got to go into a huge church with so much history.And of course most of this I did spur of the moment, without the camera, so....bummer... I just have to go back. I took some pics when Rod and I went adventuring on Sunday. We are on a Lake and actually ate at a wonderful seafood restarant on the lake last night. We are on Lake Sibley, and it is a really pretty lake. The rv park is not much , but the lake is beautiful and the places around here are fun to check out. Ya know there is always a silver lining, the secret is remembering to be thankful for the small things and be content with where you are at present.
