We returned late last night from the last (we think!) of our summer vacation road trips. We spent several days with family on Hilton Head Island, then returned via Simpsonville, SC so we could visit with more family that we hadn't seen since our return from Africa. It was fun--we had great weather, lots of pool time, a trip to the shipyard, some good seafood, and the girls had a blast playing with their cousins. Rusty and I snuck in a Starbucks date, an afternoon tennis match, and a couple of runs without the jogging stroller. Rusty did, of course, manage to find a place to stick his fishing pole in the water while we were on the island as well. However, after a couple of interruptions from alligators, he ended his efforts. :) We had a great trip, but as always, it was good to come home--even to our temporary one! :)
Which brings me to other news some of you may be wondering about. We still have not found a full-time job for Rusty now that we are back in the U.S., but the Lord did bless us with a part-time one that just started today. Rusty will be the weekend manager for the Buckeye Lake Rec. Center on the back side of the mountain. It's a great fit for us because he'll still be able to job search/interview/visit potential churches during the week but still make some money on the weekends. We're thankful for the opportunity and he is looking forward to beginning the job.
We're thankful for your continued prayers and encouragement as we wait for the Lord to lead us to our next place of ministry. Hope you enjoy the pictures of our island fun!
