A Few Days After the Storm They Came...

There were a total of 3. Two brown ones and 1 green one. They ate so much so fast - it was amazing. Two were gone by nightfall - dinner for something I assume. We have one in a butterfly cage hoping to see what giant butterfly it will become. The mouth extended so far out when it was stretching - they were very fascinating. (Shannon M - can you tell me more about them?) Thanks Anita for the layout!!

1st GCC Service after Ike

We shared a truly beautiful time of praise and worship today.

GCC Clean up on Cole property after Ike

We have been relying on the GCC community big time: eating meals, doing laundry, checking emails, taking showers, sheltering from the heat at the Michelsens and Brenons. The Stevens brought us a generator for our water pump and Scott made a start on the chain sawing.

Then we were so blessed to have the Robisons and Fryes turn up and work like machines to cut down the two biggest trees that fell in our driveway during Ike. Even the kids had fun working and throwing branches on the burn pile (that burned for 2 days!).
