We have been gone for almost a week and I can say that I am glad to be back and look forward to my bed tonight. But, other than that, I have had a great time!!! After being sick Tuesday, JD and I headed down to the lake Wednesday to be with a few of our friends. They invited us to stay at their place, cruise on their boat and eat their food. Who would turn that down??? We had such a great time. I am so blessed to have friends that are so gracious to open their vacation to the 3 of us!! Tori and I worked on a 1000 piece Photo-mosaic puzzle of Micky Mouse and got most of it finished…except for the hard parts. That is a record for us. She and I started a puzzle before she had her daughter and we just finished it last month. Her daughter is almost 3!! Yeah…it took that long. So, we started this puzzle for JD and made pretty good progress considering we had to work when the almost 2 and almost 3 year old were both asleep. So, I left Sunday after a wonderful full weekend of sun and “wawa.” On my way home I get a message from Crystal saying that they were going to be at the beach until Tuesday and if I wanted to come, I could. Well, how could I say no??? So, I did a load of laundry, threw JD back in the car and we drove to the beach. I was SO glad to get there that I can’t even explain it. Why? You ask? Because if JD asked me one more time “Where’s Ry-Ry?” I was going to scream! So, when we got to the beach (after almost a week of the 2 of them not seeing each other) I thought JD was going to run them over. They were all so excited to see each other. It really is the sweetest thing I have ever seen. We have to have daily Ry-Ry fixes because JD can’t go too long without seeing him. I actually got to the beach this time, got super sandy, did a little body-boarding and was again in awe of how beautiful the beach is. I really can’t believe how majestic the beach is. I am not a big fan of sand and waves, but I am a big fan of God’s beauty and the beach is IT! Gorgeous!! Absolutely amazing. I am so thankful for my vacation. God is so good!!
