Our Surprise Vacation!

Matt surprised me the week before by coming home and telling me that we were going to be going with Bro and Sis Palmer to Indiana! They were taking some young people from our church to the Still Waters camp, and they said they could use us (or rather our truck) to haul all the luggage. So, I packed up what we needed and we headed out Saturday, the 11th. I'm not going to post all the pictures I have from the trip right now as I'm a bit tired, but I'll put some of my favorites for now. I also want to say a special thank you to Bro and Sis Palmer, and the church of Believers Fellowship Tabernacle for giving us the opportunity to go! I was able to spend several days of the week visiting with family and friends that I haven't been able to see in years, and it was a real blessing to me (err us!).
 Melody celebrated her 4th birthday while we were at my parents' in KY. 
 I caught Dad teaching Paul how to shoot! At least it was a bb gun, but I still felt a little funny. haha Sorry, Daddy!
 This was a very special part of the trip for us. The wonderful lady in the middle is my Great Grandma Lonnia who I named our Lonnia Grace after. The other sweet faced lady is my Grandma Della Riley.
 While we were at the Still Waters camp, a brother took the kids for a ride, which I declined, only to find out later that they had ridden all around the camp! I won't decline that ride again!
This is my Great Aunt and Great Uncle, Sharon and Gene Toy of Jeffersonville, Indiana. They opened their home to us while we were passing through, and I really love them. I have to say that I enjoy talking to them and hearing their testimonies. If you ever want to hear true servants of God, just meet and talk to this couple. 
Anyway, I do have lots more pictures, but this is all I feel up to tonight. Good night!
