robharrell - Life at the Beach

This week has been a great experience for our family. We had the opportunity to stay at Emerald Isle at a friends beach house.

When we arrived last Friday, Tropical Storm Hannah was about to make landfall. We were amazed at God's awesome power as we watched the waves come crashing in Saturday and as we listened to the wind roaring Friday night. We didn't have any damage here, thank God!

Sunday, we had the privalege of going to church in Morehead City with a group that went with us to Costa Rica. It was a great service, and afterwards we went to some friends for lunch. It was such an awesome time of fellowship with our new friends.

Throughout the week the boys had a blast playing in the ocean, building sand castles, and collecting shells. It truly was a BEAUTIFUL week!

Yesterday, we were blessed to be able to go out with JP and Tiffany (our friends that went on Costa Rica AIM trip in July) on their boat, and they took us to Cape Lookout. This was a new experience as well. We have never visited the lighthouses, and the boys caught fish in the net and played in the sound as well the beach. Each of the boys took a turn being buried in the sand.

They then took us to Sand Dollar Island and we were able to find several sand dollars. Along the way to Cape Lookout we were able to get a glimpse of the wild horses on Shackleford Island. It was truly an amazing day!

Well, the week has come to an end, and we will be going home tommorrow. But, we have lots of great memories to take with us!!! We will try to get some pictures of our trip loaded when we get home!
