Just when you think you know what is going on, that is usually when you're the furthest from it. That was pretty much my story today as I continued my quest of framing windows. The first few were a bit troublesome as we (Becky and I) lacked what many might call beginners luck. All in all, the window frames started to look better with each passing cut until we finally reached the maximum point on our "awesome-perfect frame" scale. This window frame was without a doubt our BEST one thus far and we were untouchable from that point on with our deserved arrogant panache attitude. Then we hit a brick wall so to speak or, in our case, a steel one with little people laughing at us. After replacing 2 boards, 7 screws, 4 drill bits, 5 lollipops, our pride, 3 turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree we lit the bat signal. To our surprise our friend Sarah responded to our distress call. With her help things seemed to go a smidgen better or at least resulted in the finalization of the frame.
Our reward was much like God's grace (thumbs up to God), but not quite as cool. WE WENT TO THE BEACH (ok...everyone went to the beach) and many magical things happened there, but I won't go into grave detail on how the water tasted and the way the sand and seashells made intricate designs with flickering sunlight that reflected off the water and......ok, ENOUGH WITH THE RUN ON SENTENCE AND GRAVE DETAIL (sigh). Anyway, we all had a stupendular time and had some unforgettable moments...today, with more to come.
Yay God,

Okay... I'm officially jealous! It's 50 degrees (yes, sunny) with a cold north wind blowing today. I would love to be wading in the Gulf!
Good work on the windows... you all have a lot more courage than I!
We continue to pray for you all, wishing you God's rich grace and mercy as you begin to conclude your time down there!
