Well we are spending our last day in Tennessee today and fly out of Memphis at the crack of dawn tomorrow. This trip has been absolutely amazing. Usually when I go on vacation it is back to back scheduling and things to do, but when I come here, it is very slow paced and the only things we do are exactly what we want to do, whenever we want to do it. It has been so nice to just be able to go to sleep early and get up late. I have done lots of cooking and exercising, and just spent time with grama on the porch talking about life and how Christ is always at work. Leaving tomorrow is definitely bittersweet. It will be good to get home, start up my busy life again, working and swimming and getting real involved in our church again, only to leave it in August, but its ok. Every year that I come home from this trip, I feel so rejuvinated and ready to take on what life throws at me. I can tell that my parents are ready for us to get home though, my daddy called and talked to me for a long time this morning, never admitted he wanted us to get home, but I could tell :) Then a few minutes later, I talked to mom and she doesn't mind telling us that she wants us HOME! haha. The other day we all sat down and watched the movie "Fireproof". I have been thinking about it a lot since we watched it. While reading "Redeeming Love" and watching that movie, the idea of absolute unconditional love have seemed to be all around me. It is something that is so abused and not clearly defined hardly anywhere these days. But it is defined all over in God's Word. Loving through circumstance is the trend.
I will write more in a bit
