Happy Birthday Nana


We have just returned from 4 days of camping near Setubal, a coastal area an hour from our house. After 6 weeks in the states, 2 teams from the states coming to serve for ServetheCity and a whole lot of preperation and travel in the midst of that, we needed a little family time alone.
Or camping trip was good for the soul. We swam in the freezing cold sea, collected shells, took a day trip to Evora (the old capital of Portugal), slept in tents, read books, and spent time filling up our families love tank. It's so easy to let yourself run on empty when you're doing this kind of work. We have a whole lot on the plate in front of us. The number one thing being the school that Paula will be teaching at next year. www.cornerstoneacademy.edu So it was important for us to take this time for ourselfs.
All that being said we were not around to celebrate a very special womans birthday. So, even though it's a little late, all four Wild Geese want to say, HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANA! We hope that it was a wonderful day for you. We all thought of you on your special day. Hope the next 29 are as good as the... last 29?
Happy Birthday all you August babies and Be Blessed
