•  Yesterday we had the privilege of having some nieces and nephews come to visit us from other states! My nephew Neil, from PA, was down in GA and then he and my nephew Tyler and nieces Nicole and Carmen and their friend Tia came down after lunch to spend the day.
   We all went to the beach for a little while. It was cold and windy, so no playing in the water although we did get our feet wet!

  The sand was blowing, making ripples….

  

  The water was blue and choppy from all the wind~

  

  Proof that it was cold!

  

  The whole crew minus Dan & I…..Tamara, Carmen, Tyler, Nicole, Neil, Tia and Danny

  

   They were throwing small shells in the air and got quite the gathering of sea gulls thinking they were being fed….imagine their disappointment!

  

  

  Came back and had a late supper of burgers, chips, Symphony chocolate cake and ice cream!

  

   This morning I had an appointment at the Jackson hospital for an echocardiogram. Thanks to Ruth D. for offering to go with me while her girls kept our kids. It was nice to have someone go along since everything was “unknown”. Of course it went well…now I just have to wait for the results. I also am going to my regular doctor tomorrow for blood work and an EKG. Praying for answers….but hopefully nothing serious!
   
   It felt so good to turn the calendar page and see a very empty March schedule….compared to February! Tomorrow is sewing circle which I am going to try to take in after I’m done at the doctor. Then in the evening we have our homsechool Mom’s night out! I always look forward to that!!

   Saturday is the annual GEMS Fundraiser Ladies Tea. There have been so many “issues” with this tea, but I know God will bless it and am looking forward to it being here! Thanks to Candice for all the time she is putting into it, while also preparing for the arrival of their new blessing! 

    Next week is E.M.P.T.Y. on my calendar and is also Dan’s final week of school for this semester!!!! He is taking the last part of the semester off! Yippee!! We are looking forward to putting our plans together for our trip to CO and MO in April and also getting outside work and inside organizing done! And just spending LOTS of time together as a family!!

   Praying you are having a blessed evening…. God is good…..ALL the time!
