HURRICANES...without destruction...but added renewal!!



Our wonderful friends from Lake Charles, LA came for a welcomed visit. Even though the main reason for a visit was to evacuate from Hurricane Ike, we were excited to spend some "long awaited" time together. I was excited to hear the news that not only was their house spared but they had very minimal damage from the flooding. So...looks like April will get a new treadmill, new hardwood floors, maybe a few new clothes (not hurricane related) and mostly a well appreciated heart as she enjoys the comfort of her home! We enjoyed their time with us. They all impart a spirit of thankfulness and meekness with each visit. I'm so thankful for our friends and their precious children.


Here is a picture of their home during the flood. I randomly found this as I was searching the internet for any news of the area. April was a little shocked to see a picture of her home in this condition. After seeing this picture and getting the word of minimal water damage is evident of God's mercy!



Here's pictures of the kids playing with our pets! They all had so much fun!
