Philippians 4:4-9
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. and the peace of God which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things. The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.

The Aquarium!

What a way to beat the 108 degree heat!!! We headed to the Oregon Coast for two days where it was 58 degrees and we needed jackets in the morning and evening!



We took a long trip to Newport the the Aquarium for the kids first trip! As you can see Hannah was very excited!



Our first sight was of this beautiful, deadly fish.

We knew when Hannah and Caleb were awed by the first thing we saw, that if was going to be a fun day!


Next they enjoyed this 'unicorn' fish.







You have to enjoy the look on this fish's face!! It really looked like he was watching them!







These tubes were amazing fun. Watching sharks and skates and rays swim only inches from your face is an amazing feeling,

















David got some amazing pictures of God's wondrous creatures.






You have to love the pictures of being eaten by the shark. Doesn't everyone have one?!












And posing on the fake turtles in the park. You have to have one of those too, of course.
And another blessing was when Hannah fell off and hurt herself, she actually cried and came to me for comfort! Praise God!
