Addie's 20th Birthday

Our oldest daughter's 20th birthday was on August 2nd. :)  Why do they have to grow up?  This is Addie at 4 yrs. old on her last day of kindergarten.



Autumn and Summer decorated the house with a dinosaur theme.





She wanted to go to the Jacksonville Zoo for her birthday, so we did that. :)






































Summer's face.  Ha!






















Addie-20, Summer-12, Autumn-17, Sierra-15




Can you see us melting in the heat and humidity?






We finally saw an alligator.




It was a little creepy.  Ha!








Coyotes.  They were pretty ferocious on their dog houses.  LOL!





Black bear.



We had packed a lunch to eat.  It would have been nice to have picnic tables available for those like us.  We had to eat on the ground and we were invaded by ants.



Again, Summer's face.


Stingray Bay.






Monkeys and apes.













Ha!
































The river



The girls bought mini dinosaur stuffed animals.  Each is a different kind and different color.







Bamboo



The tiger looks pretty much like my cat sleeping.  Ha!






The second tiger








Goodbye Jacksonville Zoo










Addie's favorite meal is tater-topped sausage egg bake.  So that is what I made.




We then had five minute cheesecake and opened cards and gifts.

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...
