Amanda and Mark left their home in Florida on Wednesday night at 8:30 pm.
They arrived on our doorstep at 5:00 am the next morning.
We have been waiting for Hurricane Irma ever since.
As of a couple of hours ago she finally made landfall in the Keys.
We are hopeful that their home will still be intact
when she has spent her fury and moved on.
As for our time here...
Well, we have had plenty of fun being all together.
Yesterday morning,
Amanda and I took the boys down to River Street which was deserted.
Yesterday afternoon,
we had barbeque and ball games.
This morning I made fresh from scratch blueberrry muffins.
The boys have been making movies....
We play Uno, of course!
Today,
Amanda and I are doing all of the things we want to do
before the power goes out,
if it does.
My big tub is full of water,
We have plenty of food to last until Tuesday,
Bubba and Mark have moved my beautiful geraniums inside,
The condo is as secure as it can get.
This is all eerily similar to Hurricane Matthew
which ravaged us last year in October.
God controls the storms.
Our stuff is not that important.
Our lives are all that really matter.
Our souls are safe in Christ.
We are safe in Him!!!
