Our trips...


So Mer and I have taken two trips this summer, one to Virginia for Jonathan's wedding which also included stops in NC, Charleston, and Savannah, the other trip was back down to WPB/Ft. Lauderdale to hang with Mer's family over the July 4th weekend.

Our big trip around the Dixie was a welcome rest after the Spring semester and gave us an opportunity to get away from life in Orlando enjoy family, friends, and each other. I found the trip to be most helpful because it provided me an opportunity to stop doing all activities in Orlando and to gain some perspective on where God has us and what I need to do next to prepare us for our last year at seminary. Along with the much needed rest we also were happy to enjoy the festivities around Jonathan's wedding, and to enjoy two of the South's oldest and most prominent cities in Charleston and Savannah. Our time in both Charleston and Savannah was full of good places to eat, beautiful old downtowns, and even some interesting people (we even made friends with a couple who owned their own island in the Bahamas.)

Our smaller trip down to South Florida was a whole lot of fun as we got to hang out with Mer's cousin Alan and his wife Kami. We had a blast running around WPB and Ft. Lauderdale with the cousins while we also got an incredible fireworks show from Mrs. Sherlin's 16th floor condo on the beach.

Now we are back in Orlando getting ready for the up coming semester.



P.S. I have added a video from our craziness on 4th of July.
