As we enter into summer we wanted to do something fun and memorable for the children. They have worked hard this school year under some not so "roomy" circumstances. They've been through a lot of emotions and heartache but have learned to praise our Lord through it all. They've watched their parents go through some emotional roller coasters as well - it's been an interesting year to say the least - we made it! Thank you to all of you for your prayers and support....the Lord is good and worthy to be praised in all circumstances. Habakkuk 3:17-18 is a verse we have been thinking on throughout the school year and it is clearly what we are learning! "Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the stalls and no cattle in the stalls, YET, I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior" - Now we still have food and a garden and milk girls providing us with plenty but most of you know what we have endured and what we have lost...and if we as a people of God can grasp this, rejoicing in all things, then we will not be shaken or moved. Oh, Lord that we truly would stand and rejoice in you!
So getting to the pictures...we decided to start our summer break on an adventure! That is my theme for summer "Adventure"...I've got so many ideas running around for summer and hope they all come to pass so I can blog about them...anyway our first summer adventure - cave hunting!
What a fantastic adventure this was. The caves were very interesting and the experience was unforgettable! So the caves were more of a "shelter dug out" from "millions of years" of erosion, water etc..., of course we know that it is a world wide flood that created these magnificent caves which native Indians would use for shelter as they gathered the sage and hunted for wild game in preparation for the winter months ahead....Enjoy the pictures!
