it's been warm here

Wow. This has been a crazy week. Trevor and I have been struggling with school and all that goes along with it. We would really appreciate your prayers. God has been unchanging and faithful through it all. He is so good and full of steadfast love. I haven't yet written the post about our theology that required the last post's disclaimer. I haven't had the time or energy. I'll get to it soon, and when I do, I'll title it 'disclaimer post'. That way everyone can know whether or not to read it.

Did you notice that my blog got hacked? Yah. The problem is fixed now, but apparently it was distributing malware without my consent. Lame. But like I said, it's no longer an issue and you can once again visit my blog with reckless abandon as frequently as you wish.

This past week was Trevor's spring break, and we planned to go camping. But it was still in the 40's at night. We were not very excited about Piper getting sick or being unable to sleep, so when my neighbor graciously offered us her family's lake house, we accepted. It's a cabin on Lake Oconnee in a great community. It had a cozy hammock, running water, a shower, a refrigerator, warm beds, and heat. Notice all the warm things I am mentioning... it ended up being cold and rainy the whole time we were there. We decided to come home on Wednesday. The next day was in the high seventies with lots of sunshine, and I was really wanting to get Piper outside. My friend Elisha told us about Sandy Creek Park (click for a picture)... it's a gorgeous state park that has a lake with a beach, an awesome playground, tons of woods, a frisbee golf course, and it is super clean. we packed up the car on Friday and headed out to the park. We had so much fun!! We got some sun, played in the sand and water, swung on the swings, met some other kids. I went ahead and bought an annual pass for $30. We plan to live out there this summer. Actually we plan to live out there two to three days of the week, and then work the other days. Until we can move to a farm or at least a place with some woods and grass to roam, it gives me so much joy to be outside with my girl. Our friends will be out there too!! I am so excited for our summer. 

The pictures above... there's a Mexican family that lives close to the park. They built a large patio next to their house and turned it into a restaurant. The food is so amazing. It's like being in Mexico. I love the family too... they're so sweet and they really take pride in their business. Every detail is perfect and the place is so clean. I hope we can stop to eat every once in a while and support their business.

Be back soon with some pictures from a memorable night with friends... music, lovely home, sweet friends.
