Life

My family and I are in Michigan this week to celebrate my inlaw's 40th anniversary. It's great to be here and we surprised them by not telling them we were coming but wow is it COLD here! Who in their right mind takes a vacation in Michigan in January when they live in Florida? It was -4 degrees when we got off the plan Thursday night and I think it has topped out at 33 one day. I can not seem to get warm. My feet are always cold and so are my hands.

Despite the cold my husband and I have enjoyed our visit so far. Sofie is having a blast with her grandparents and they are really digging seeing her so unexpectedly. Ken and I have also been able to go to the movie twice by ourselves. I told him that I think the last time we were out alone together was in October when he took me to the dermatologist to have a melanoma removed off my leg. My mom watched Sofie and Ken took me to the docter and Walmart for my perscriptions. That was a big day for us! I think we have not been to a movie together since maybe July ot August. So thankfully the grandparents love to have Sofie to themsleves and we get some much needed alone time.

It is always surprising to me how when God tells you to do something and you actually do it, the results are always positive and rewarding. Without going in to a lot of detail God had directed me to take this trip with my husband and it has been really great. We have had many blessings along the way in the form of friends and family. I know it shouldn't be surprising that God would reward me for being obedient but it still does. I serve a great and wonderful God and I hope I can be more obedient in the future as well.

Well thats all for now fromt he great white north. 3 more days and I will be back in sunny Florida bound for a cruise ship to Mexico and Grand Cayman. YEEHAW!
