"And Phillip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God". Acts 8: 37
My life is anything but boring. It seems that there is a rare week that is not filled with activity. This past week, the folks at work gave me a "baby shower"for Abigail. I left Shane with Susie so it was all about Abigail and it was her day! She enjoyed opening the gifts and was friendly with everyone. The shower was on Tuesday. On Wednesday, we attended Mandy's capping ceremony in the morning. She was capped by her brother and sister. Unfortunately, most of the pictures (taken by her mother) are blurry so I am only able to include two pictures from the capping ceremony. After the ceremony, we left for our mini-vacation at Virginia Beach.
We arrived at the beach around 6:00 p.m. as we ran into heavy traffic on the way. The weather was PERFECT with sunny skies and warm temperatures. Thursday was spent on the beach and the 3 children enjoyed it very much (Sharon, Andy and Nicholas went with us). As you can see from the pictures, the children played in the water even though it was cool. We returned home on Friday afternoon and Susie's girls spent the night at my house and the boys stayed with Sharon as Susie had a 9:00 p.m. MRI and would be getting home late.
This is a big week for us as Mandy graduates high school on Saturday. I will have 3 of Susie's children tonight as Shiloh has surgery at 6:30 a.m. in the morning. I will be with Mandy at PVCC on Thursday for college orientation and Saturday is the BIG day with graduation and the graduation party.
Next week is my last full week at home and two days (Tuesday and Thursday) will be spent with Abigail at the hospital as she is having a series of testing including an MRI. Please pray that all goes well.
Time has moved very quickly and I will be returning to work on June 8th. Fortunately, I work part-time so I am home several days during the week. Our first grandchild is due on July 19th and all the family is excited.

Hi Doris!
Just catching up on what's been going on your way:-). looks like you've definitely been busy, and enjoying your time off from work. I'm sure your return will be bittersweet.
Abigail looks like she's doing great! What a special time to have a 'shower' where Abigail and you could open presents together.
As for the beach....Ahhhhh:-). I can't wait for it to warm up our way so we can enjoy some sand and sun!! There's nothing like family time at the beach. The kiddos never seem to be bored!
Keeping Abigail in prayer during her testing:-).
