Visiting on the Lord's Day

Since we have moved to a new church building on Sunday's and have to be out early (at least to our standards) we have been visiting with fellow believers at home.

A couple of weeks ago Ike, JuneBug and I went over to the M family's home but regretfully I didn't get any pictures.

The Lord's Day before last we went to the L family's home along with the G family.

Mrs. L, Mr. G, and Ike

 

Mrs. G reading to JuneBug

 

Our Host, allows JuneBug to touch his beard. I think it reminds him of his Grandpa M!

This past Lord's Day we had a couple families over.

 

Mrs. H, Mr. & Mrs. B, Mr. H, and Ike.

 

Young Mr. B and the Misses B & H on the floor. Lucy Belle (the B family's young puppy) also attended in a cage in the sunroom and JuneBug was present but had been put to bed.

"Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend." 

Proverbs 27:17 

Baby Growing Up

On Friday JuneBug and Ike got out and played a little baseball. I so wish I could upload some videos because it was so cute to hear him. Pictures will have to suffice, though!

Looking for the ball. JuneBug would lose it in the grass.

 

 

 

A lot of the time he was throwing with his left hand.

 

 

~~~

I also had to throw in these two pictures of JuneBug in his long underwear. Too cute!

 

Videos of JuneBug

Due to Blogger difficulties I will be posting pictures of JuneBug later. Sorry! It is too bad too because he is really cute! :)

New Years at the Beach

It was a beautiful dawn the day we left.

The beautiful colors only lasted a few minutes.

 

~~~

When we finally arrived in Edisto it was too late for us to get out on the beach. So we...

 

Unpacked and made the beds...

 

Ate supper, did devotions, sang "Happy Birthday", and Daddy V. quoted the birthday poem to Mama.

~~~

 

Happy to be back at the beach

 

I already found me some shark teeth!

 

The children fed the birds bread

 

while the adults tried not to get "bombed"

 

We found a couple of starfish

 

Look at the cute little footprints

 

There were lots of conch shells, some with conchs still attached. Yicky!

 

The boys collected boat loads of shells and shark teeth

 

After being tuckered out from our morning walk we played games and ate chocolate.

 

 

W and G made this sandcastle

 

The last sun set of 2009

 

"Wait for me!" 

 

The tide coming in

Waves eating away at the castle...

 

until it be no more.

 

We tried getting some good portraits...but this one didn't feel much like cooperating

 

I like this one!

 

See he didn't want to look at the camera

 

I guess he gets it from his father

 

Yep! Definitely related

Aww. Isn't that precious?

 

 

The "Blue Moon" closing on 2009

~~~

 

JuneBug looking out at the new year. Although, he was quite oblivious that it was now 2010.

 

He is still cute.

 

 

It's a shark! Not really, only a dolphin.

This guy came really close to shore and we could see almost his whole body at times.

 

"Okay let's get this group organized for a photo."

 

"Not much hope I'm afraid"

"Nope not much at all" 

 

Turned out pretty good, if I do say so myself.

 

Making a boat

 

Blue-eyed Beauty

 

Ham-Bone

 

Removing a conch from the prettiest shell you ever saw. It was bright orange.

~~~

We awoke to this beautiful sunrise

 

 

 

How can we go on vacation for 4 days and still look so tired?

 

 

One last walk on the beach before heading home

 

 

This interesting scene caused some major rubbernecking on our side of the freeway which caused some major traffic jams

 

Wonder how he did it?
