Christmas in August...

So, yesterday was an AMAZING day!! We got not 1, not 2, not even 3 but EIGHT care packages!! Funny how God had them all arrive on the same day!! It was a tremendous boost to our spirits!! We want to say a special THANK YOU!! to Tina, Thad, and Brandon Nobles, Aunt Di and Uncle Tommy, my mom, and the members of Pinemount Baptist Church in McAlpin. Here are a few shots of the day. We really should have taken a video of us opening them. I'm sure our neighbors were wondering what in the world all the shrieks, screams, and oh's and ah's were all about!!

Zeke, getting excited about some of his prizes in the care packages Thanks Aunt Di and Madison

We also want to thank all those who've sent care packages in the past. You have no idea how much it means to us and how excited we get over them!! Words cannot explain how nice it is to have a little taste of home, especially on those days we wish we could be home!! THANK YOU AGAIN!! Until next time...

That is all things we take for granted. It is very surreal to hear how excited it has made you guys. Keep up God's work. You guys are amazing.

Love,
