It's OFFICIAL

Our house, aka Applehouse95, has been dedicated as the
"Washed by the Water" home.

Thank you to Matt Darden and his creative innovative dream of making a house into a home with his new business known as Darden's Decal Designs for presenting us with this heartfelt gift!!!

Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.

Children of God

Every Sunday night we get together. Last Sunday night many of us couldn't make it. And the ones that did were tired, defeated and worn out!

But, not the kiddos. Their smiles and giggles radiated through the house (and backyard).






Doesn't that remind you of when Jesus said that if we wanted to come to him we must be like the little children? Luke 18:16But Jesus called the children to him and said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. These kids don't know what a financial crisis is...heck a crisis to Cami is not getting to see Bella (Cami's best friend) every day!

Luckily, we came to Him...

we came as adults and left feeling more like the children He called us to be. When the Holy Spirit meets you, your worries are silly and the love He gives makes you remember who we are...CHILDREN OF GOD!

And the guys even cleaned the kitchen!
