Memorial Day 2008





We had a wonderful Memorial Day. Randy was off and we took the kids to the park to play for a little while this morning. Then we took a drive up the Natchez Trace to the Cypress Swamp. We thought that would be a nice little nature walk for the kids. It would've been if the mosquitoes hadn't been quite so bad..they were huge and there were tons of them. We saw a cottonmouth snake that crossed the trail right in front of us. I am no fan of snakes at all. I was quite glad to get the kids back to the van. We saw some deer, snakes, and one alligator on our drive. That evening, my parents came over to eat dinner with us. Randy grilled hamburgers and hot dogs. And the very very best part of all was....that night, Will asked Jesus into his heart to be his Lord and Savior!!! We are so excited that he has made this decision. He has been asking questions for a very long time now and we knew he was getting close. This was one of the happiest days of our life, to know that he has made this profession of faith. He'll go through a New Believers class for children at church and will be baptized later this year, after he completes that class.
