Stronger then me

I just want to say I give all of you my friends and family props if your husband travels for work!!! I would also like to add... I don't envy you one bit. I'm getting a small taste of it this week. Seth went to Florida for work and we don't know when he'll be coming home... one week, two weeks, who knows? I'm a such a baby... I get so nervous at night. I've truly had to hand this over to the Lord. What a blessing faith is... I just have to keep thinking.. 'your faith shines brightest in the dark' (I think that's the saying) anyway it apply's to me quite literally. I miss having dinner with him and it's times like this when I really wish family was around. My family and my friend Teesha have been so good to call and check up on me... It's funny, they all do their rounds. I'm so grateful for them. I got to thinking about it and so many people I know have this 'traveling husband' thing as a part of their normal lives.... our friends in the military here, my sister's husband is in Iraq and my other sister's husband travel Mon-Thrus for construction every week. I must say your all stronger then me and my prayers are with each of you...
LOVE YOU

Newport Beach Temple

One weekend down on the port in San Pedro, they docked a bunch of 18th century ships that we were able to tour before the contined on down the coast to be permently docked.

This is the fire rescue boat... It's what the water fireman use. It's down on wharf

near our house.

Drag Races

This is on the trail of a very cool hike along the coast, it goes up right

through the Trump golf course.

This is one our favorite places, it's about 5 mins from our home. It's right off the coast with a bunch rocks to play on and tide pools to explore.

Crawdad Fishin' @ Strawberry Lake

This trip up to the lake was my first in fishing for crawdads (which is a mcvea tradition) I even bought a fishing license for the day so I could join in... Yeah Right! We got there and I was getting ready then Seth showed me his first catch and I saw what they actually looked like and I almost died. Their mini lobster things... I screamed, put my shoes back on and sat down and watched. I didn't care to fit in on that activity.... No way was anyone getting me in that water so they could eat my feet.
