Isn't it Breath Taking??
Playing in the Pool Area
Several hours were spent here on Monday and the kids enjoyed it so much. The rule in our family is that we can swim in a motel pool only if no one else is. Thankfully, no one else came to swim the whole time we were enjoying ourselves. Can't exactly figure it out..............maybe it was because the pool was unheated, making the water freezing cold........................maybe it was because of our "not so ordinary" swimming attire. :) :)

Day 4 of Our Vacation
Visiting Cape Hatteras
Mailing the Postcard
That's a Girl, Courtney!!
Roanoke Island Festival Park

After visiting the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, we slowly headed towards Roanoke Island.......stopping at several souvenir shops along the way. Once there, we went to Roanoke Island Festival Park where Momma, Joshua and I shopped in the gift store and relaxed in rocking chairs while the rest of the family took a tour of a ship and settlement site. It was a really neat place to be and we would highly recommend it to others.

Our Last Family Vacation :(
Lord willing later on today ( Oh, goodness...........it's after mid-night!! ), my family and I will be heading to the Outer Banks for our last "real" vacation before I'm married. *sigh* We are really looking forward to it and hope to make some great memories while we're away. Be sure to look for lots of pics later on next week!! :)
Besides packing and doing TONS of laundry for our trip, the rest of this week has been filled with painting the livingroom/foyer, rearranging furniture, consulting with a photographer, buying material for bridesmaid dresses, going to one of our grocery stores for their TRIPLE coupon deal, church office work, wedding registries, and whatever else daily life held for us.
All for now.......must get off here!
Goodnight!
Sleep tight!

Our Church's Soulwinning Conference
Sunday-Wednesday of this week our church had it's first soulwinning conference ever. We were greatly blessed and challenged by the messages we heard from several great men of God. Pictured above is Dr. Bobby Roberson. He was able to preach to us twice this week and as always, he was just as godly, wise and down to earth as ever. I could sit and listen to him all day long! What a blessing he is! I hope and pray that what all I heard/learned this week would cause me to be a "doer of the word" and not just a "hearer only" ( James 1:22).
