At Uncle Lindsey's on Memorial Day.  Left to right:  Ellen, Cason, Harrison, Clara, Clay, Davis, & Graham.  Homemade ice cream, snow cones, grilling, swimming, and just being together.  It was a fun day for all.

We had a wonderful visit to Mayo to visit family for a brief visit going down on Mon.  On Tuesday, I celebrated my birthday.  Since arriving home on Wed., I've been busy with last minute preparations for leaving for Ireland on Monday. 
Just checking my blog site as I hope to communicate via this venue while in Ireland.  I am getting excited by the day.
 Looking forward to spending time with my cousin, Linda, from Ft. Worth.  Her mom, Burldine, and my dad were siblings.  I think we are both looking forward to being able to spend more time together than we ever have.  I hope she still loves me after being together for 10 days.
Myra Henriott and I will leave Savannah during the middle of the day.  We'll meet up with Linda in Ft. Worth and leave for London.  We should arrive in Cork middle of the afternoon on Tuesday.
Meetings and ministry will begin on Wednesday. 
Thanks in advance to all for your prayers.
Until next time,

On May 7, 2013, my class presented "Bullies Anonymous" to the students of LUES.  We did 2 performances at 9 and  10 A.M.   While it was a lot of fun, it was also very educational.  We learned and taught about different types of bullies, and what usually happens to them.  I was very proud of my 3rd graders.  I will miss them next year. 

School's Out

Last Friday was our last day with students.  It's been a whirlwind of a year.  Three more days of postplanning,  then I'll be making a quick trip to FL to visit mom.  This will be my first time going back since dad went to heaven on March 21st.  Then on June 3rd, I'm leaving to go to Ireland with WMA on my 7th mission's trip.  I'm so thankful for these opportunities to go.

Summer

Enjoying the lazy days of summer.  On my birthday, May 28th, David & I left for Alaska where we rented a motor home for 11 days.  We enjoyed visiting Denali and going out on a day cruise from Whittier.  David went halibut fishing in Homer. It was a relaxing and refreshing trip for us.

Since arriving back home, I've visited my family in FL.  Amy is much improved and is learning to use her prosthesis.  We are so thankful to God for sparing her life.  We have questions that we will never have answers for, but we continue to just trust.

I'm working on this post and plan to contact with everyone when we go to the CUFI conference the week of July 16th.  Then on July 22nd, Myra Henriott and I are to go to China for a mission's outreach with WMA.  I'm looking forward to seeing my mission buddy friend: Gwen Reed from South Carolina.  This is the 4th summer I will have traveled with her on mission trips.  We solicit your prayers for safety in all areas and ultimately for an outpouring of love and ministry to the Chinese people.  I do plan to post from China providing that we have internet access.

Blessings to all and thanks for your prayers.

Christmas 2011

We've had the girls since Dec. 20th. It is amazing how peaceful and contented they have been. Everyday has been an adventure.
