Haven't updated in a while, but we've been quite busy these past couple of weeks. Presently, we have some dear friends in town from Colorado. They're some of the closest friends we made when we lived in Boulder. They are just wonderful, and we've been having a great time with them, including their 3-month old daughter Addie.
We've been at the beach since Tuesday night, and I gotta say I could get used to this life. We're staying in an absolutely gorgeous condo in Beaufort, NC (the coolest small waterfront town in the whole state, I'm convinced) at the vacation home of one of my friends. We've been to the beach for 2 days, took a boat ride to an island, played card games with our friends, held their precious baby, ate a nice seafood dinner on the waterfront (yes, I had shrimp even though I'm pregnant and that's a questionable food... I couldn't resist!), read books, laughed a whole lot, and just relaxed. Each morning I've gotten up a good bit earlier than everyone else and walked about 8 minutes to the local coffee shop, Taylor's Big Mug, and grabbed a cup of coffee and fired up my laptop and have gotten some work done for about an hour and a half. It is days like this that I LOVE my job!! I am not missing a beat at work, yet I'm sitting there this very minute looking at the water. Good stuff. In a few minutes, I'll wrap it up at the coffee shop, walk down to the bakery, and bring some pastries back to the condo for breakfast.
I'm just having a really grateful kind of morning, and thought I'd share. God is good ALL the time, but occasionally I lift up my eyes and actually acknowledge His goodness. Today is one such morning.
Off to the bakery.....
