Time Flys when you are having fun...

It has been a while since I have blogged anything. Where do I start? So, many things have happened. Madison & I went to MI with my friend Katie Barnes. We spent a few days with her family and went to Mackinac Island. We had a great time and it was nice to get away. It was actually the 1st time Madison went swimming. She had a blast and I have a ton of pics to post. Hopefully I can do that soon.

My dad got out of the hospital on Friday July 11th. After 2 months he is so happy to be home. We are all happy he is home. It gets tiresome going to the hospital almost everyday. He has made so many improvements in his recovery. All the doctors have been amazed at how fast he has recovered. I am not amazed b/c I believe that all things are possible through Jesus Christ. He is the one that strengthens us. What is amazing is to watch God work right in front of your eyes. Before this accident my father was not in a good place in his life and even though he believed in God he did not have a relationship with him, nor did he want one. Now his heart is overflowing with the desire to chase after him. Amen, for that! God is good! And God is being glorified.

Madison, aka bugaboo, is growing like a weed. Everyday she is learning a new word and exploring everything. I am not for sure what I did to fill my time, but I can tell you that the only thing I want to do now is run home to see and play with my baby girl. She teaches to so many things like love without holding back and to completely trust people even if they have not proven anything to you. Sometimes I wish I could go back to that time...you know...before the world came along and tainted your thoughts and feelings.

Perry & I have been cycling a lot. We wanted to train to cycle a century this fall but unfortunately I will not be able to. I will talk about why in a later blog. I am encouraging Perry to continue with the training. Maybe next year I will be able to jump back in. We have found so much joy in cycling. It gives us time to spend alone together, talking, not talking or just enjoying the route we are on.

Enough for now...maybe I will be able to post some pics soon. I have a ton.
