Memorial Day

I am a slacker.........no other way to say it. I have great intentions when it comes to updating this blog, but something invariably seems to prevent me from following through. Maybe I should start sending myself Twitter nudges!

So anyway....David and I had the opportunity to take a weekend trip to Savannah to visit our "adopted" daughter (a.k.a - "daughter from another mother") this past weekend. We left after David got home from work on Friday night and drove back this morning. Although we had hoped to spend a couple of days on the beach at Tybee Island, we settled for an hour there yesterday afternoon! Ah well, it is what it is! Since it rained on Saturday, we spend the day shopping (yeah, it was rough) and then went to The Lady and Sons for dinner. Talk about overeating! By the time we left the restaurant, I thought I was going to pop! I was absolutely miserable--I guess the second piece of fried chicken was a bad idea after all! On Sunday we made our token trip to the beach where we hauled our beach bags, chairs, and cooler to the shore only to haul it all back about an hour later. Oh well, at least we got to put our toes in the sand, and David was brave enough to put his in the water! We then had a low-country boil where we once again gourged ourselves on too much of everything! I guess tomorrow I'll have to go back on the dreaded D-I-E-T. It was certainly fun while it lasted, though!

Jonathon has begun his internship at the church and seems to be enjoying it very much. He is working with middle school youth and will be travelling with them on a couple of weeklong trips. He is very excited and most grateful for this opportunity. God is so good!

Fading fast after a busy weekend........ciao!
