**First, for my best friend and wonderful husband!! I promise I couldn't make it without him!! He is my EVERYTHING!!
**Second, for amazing friends, who are Jesus to me!!
Our friends in our small group have a condo in Orange Beach and graciously offered it to me and Clint to use for a long weekend!! We were shocked, overwhelmed with gratitude, and extremely thankful for such a blessing!! I had been praying for awhile now about getting some quality time with Clint, just not at home, but some time away -away from bills, chores, school, Fairfield, and children!! Clint and I have not had a vacation together since before Will was born (almost 9 years ago)!! TOO LONG! It was so exciting to have some alone time together!! We could talk to each other without interruption ~I could turn all of my attention on him and I got all his attention!! ;) It turned out to be such a special time!! The weather was absolutely perfect -mid to upper 70's and sunny!! We took a walk each morning on the beach (after enjoying coffee and beignets at Cafe Beignet) and then in the afternoon sat on the beach for hours -soaking up the sun and each other!! :) It was so relaxing!! I loved it!! We ate at my most very favorite restaurants -Oyster House, Sea & Suds, and King Neptune's!! We shopped some and I even got a pedicure!! It was definitely an answered prayer (the trip -not the pedicure... never mind the pedicure was an answered prayer too) hehe!!
Thank you John and Meredy for showing the love of Christ to us!!
"Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good, His love endures forever."

Hey! I got your comment on my blog. That particular painting is sold but I would love to make you another one for the price of supplies. I could do it with the same colors. Or, if you want it to match her room I can use whatever colors you want. Just let me know.
ps. That is so neat that your mom does that!
You're so sweet. I would be glad to do that. I'll just need to buy the canvas and maybe one tube of paint. It should be $5 or less though. I am going tomorrow to buy a canvas for something else so I will look and see the price. I think I may even have a coupon :)
ps. your word verification is "likes". I love it when they actually spell something.
Looks like ya'll had fun!! So glad you two could get away:)
