So Where Have We Been?






The past week or so has found our family touring the state of North Carolina as we vacationed and visited family. We started out at Ocean Isle where we visited Rusty's parents, enjoyed some quality beach time, and sampled our first Italian ice! The girls had a lot of fun in the sun and will undoubtedly look forward to their next opportunity to play in the tide pools and dig in the sand. After a few days on the beach, we drove up to Cary (Raleigh) to visit more family and join in the birthday celebration of our youngest niece. Time with cousins certainly rivaled riding the waves; the girls had a blast playing with each other! It was a fun reunion and we were happy for the opportunity to see everyone after a year away.

Now we're back on "the mountain" once more and back to the grind of job hunting and holding down the fort for Mom and Dad. We've had a great week so far with a church picnic, lots of deer sightings, playing with new friends at the city park, and picking up a new painting hobby at the top of the list! We're thankful for God's continued blessings poured out on us as we try to settle in to our new-albeit temporary-home! He continues to "daily bear us up"! (Ps. 68:19)
