That is about all that I have to blog about right now. I'm sure that when Marcus comes home I will have more pictures.

The Tornado

The pictures below are of the tornado that went through the base where Marcus is training right now. He said that it was pretty scarey to watch it coming straight towards you. The noise is deafening! No one was hurt and all the helicopters are ok. The path of the tornado went right between the barracks where he was staying and the helicopters. It is a miracle that none of them were hurt and that none of the helicopters were damaged. Thank the Lord for keeping his protecting hand on them.

Playing in the mud.....

....is fun when you are a dog and have a friend to do it with. Gunner and Zoe had a blast!! I dog sat for a friend the other day, it was a rainy day and the dogs were tired of being inside and were getting really hyper. I didn't want them in my house so I opened the door and let them out. When I looked out the door a little later this is what I found!! YUCK!! I was wishing that I hadn't let them out. They were so dirty!! I had to give them both baths and then had to come in and take a shower myself because both of them thought that I needed to be muddy too. :)

Gunner and Zoe
Isn't your face supposed to be black?
Look at the muddy nose!!

All clean!!

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!! Congratulations on this your 30th anniversary!! Thanks for being great parents to four great girls!! HA Seriously ya'll have been the best parents that I could have ever asked for. In the past little while you have gone through alot of testing and trials, but I have seen you fight and come out on top of it all. You haven't gotten bitter but your faith and trust in God has gone deeper. You have been great Christian examples to not only us girls but many of other young people as well. Thank you so much for everything that you have done for me. I love ya'll more then words could ever express. I wish that I lived closer to where I could help you celebrate. Hope that you have a wonderful day!!
