i am going to attempt to update this blog every week until i catch up to real time (and then probably take another long break), so enjoy this while it lasts!
the first week in may, david and i escaped the country with some great friends and found ourselves in the most beautiful location! the views were great, relaxation better, and time with friends...amazing!
on our way to the 14 hour tour of the island
we have no idea right here that this was going to be a looong adventure!

(just a side note...david and i opted to ride the 4 wheelers which looked way more boring at the time, but we did not get covered with all the mud!)
the whole crew
this is what we got to look at all week long
or this view....
However, while we were doing a bunch of nothing, Nashville was falling apart. We saw the clouds coming in as we flew away to paradise not realizing that the flood was coming. So many friends and family stepped in for us to take care of our house and all we can say is thank you!!! I dont have many pictures of the house because 1. we were in another country, and 2. everyone was evacuated by boat, so no one could take pictures at its worst. thankfully, water stayed outside of our home by about 4 inches and we just had to fix the outside stuff (car, air conditioner, duct work). we were to grateful to have been spared, but feel forever grateful for friends and family.
this news piece is about someone who goes to church with us, but has a picture of our house before the evacuation (about 42 seconds in).
