In this episode, we are off to Texas again, this time to remind ourselves why we try to stay away during the summer months. As it turns out, Courtney and Alexander had a tree blow over during a storm which narrowly missed their house. This family truly is blessed, as this tree could have easily crushed their house. Let the chainsaw work begin!
After a week or so of sweltering chainsaw work, and many gallons of sweat, this tree was bucked up into reasonably sized pieces small enough for their friend Willie's tractor to haul. Thanks for the save, Willie.
We even were able to get away and visit with our high school friends Eric and Jennifer. We stayed at their house on the lake for a few days and they even took us out on their boat on Cedar Creek Lake.
During this wonderful visit, we received the amazing news that we were going to be proud grandparents once again! Elisheva got to make the announcement at church one Saturday with her new shirt:
We were able to be there during Elisheva’s birthday, and we all went to the Dallas Aquarium in Celebration. She REALLY loved seeing the undersea life in person, and we all had an excellent time there.
This was an incredible trip to Texas, and well worth enduring the heat to make it happen. It was such a blessing to be with family and present during some special moments in their lives. These moments are priceless and will be cherished forever. We will be back as soon as possible for sure!
