It's a Wrap!

Lots of happening here….

Well, this month has flown by for sure and for certain!!  Our last week was low keyed as we started preparing our hearts to return home.  This week has been filled with connections.  We had our 3rd fellowship time with the Savage family.  This time has been sweet and we are thankful for them. There has been a huge turn over at Molly’s house and there have been no kids from the Paley Institute but it has been filled with hurting people.  This has given us many times to pray with families who are hurting and are in the area for medical treatment, watching loved ones die or have mishaps while on vacation which set them on a different course.  One thing for sure is that God is working at Molly’s house.  We did our best to be a blessing just like we were being blessed.

Above is a photo I snapped for Jacob…we saw 2 small planes being transported on this flat bed…interesting for us with his dream to purchase a plane.

We walked nightly on the River Walk in Stuart.  It was beautiful—so many folks on the weekends but we have it kind of to ourselves during the week.  There are also lots of jumping fish, crabs and shore birds.  It is such a different way of life that we have been able to experience while here in Florida.  This bird kept showing up around Sara so we made sure to snap a photo of it as we dubbed it ‘Sara’s bird.’

Jacob is sporting a new cast.  His Monday appointment was difficult for him but he did comment it was so much better than the last one on his right foot!  After 2 1/2 hours of x-rays, casting, orthotic fittings, we were finished! —he picked Spider-Man just in case you needed to know!

A closer photo of Sara’s bird in the mangroves.

Florida sunsets are so beautiful.

 Things have gone well at home despite some bumps…we are so grateful for the Winslow's who stepped up to let Becca hang out with them while Darrell was at a Cadet hike with the boys.  Such a blessing...heard our family was stepping up too.  There was a rescue in the bathroom when Becca couldn't get the door unlocked.  One of the boys climbed through the window and took the door off.  All is well now and they have a good story to tell!

Tonight we are staying in South Carolina—more on that in the next post.  We are homeward bound!
