"So let my whole life be
A blazing offering
A life that shouts and sings
The greatness of our King
Glory to God, Glory to God, Glory to God Forever."
Excerpt from the song Glory to God Forever by Fee
the endless list of thanks continues...
stream walk with our cousins...crayfish, salamanders and frogs in their new temporary home...Star Wars on the porch...forts in the bedroom...the Yough river salamander...building dams...Topps Attax games...Josh's first sleepover with Ry and Nick...cousins sleeping over at camp...skiing at sunset...Grandma's apple pie...vast expanse of clouds and skyline...zip line rides...waking to gently falling rain...campfires...rainbow lollipops...boys retrieving water and discussions about our friends in Africa doing the same...ice cream for lunch...waterfalls...and hikes behind them...family bike ride along the river...wind chimes making music in the wind...brave boys...all three boys tubing together...hanging clothes on the line to dry...Joshua learning to ride his bike without training wheels...and Eli following very close behind...9 mile float trip down the river...lunch along the river...that Micaiah made it all the way in his own ducky...the beauty of God's mountains...visits with family...a walk through PA's largest cave...kayaking on the lake at sunset...boys jumping off of the dock...an hour or two spent trying to catch minnows...Western Maryland Adventures...that the three older boys caught fish...Eli's large mouth bass...finding his footprints on the rock...his hair...my aunts gift of a pedicure and massage while she watched the boys...stopping at the fair on the way home...riding the Ferris wheel as a family...
and some of the "Ugly" things that challenged us to see the beauty in these too...
forgotten bike seats...dead batteries...rain...missed naps...a tube going under instead of on top of the water...scrapes and bruises...a dock ladder thrown in the water...a river rat that went in to drink...forgotten camera battery wall charger
