Sunny San Diego

We had a great trip out to beautiful San Diego. This was our view from the train from LAX to Solana Beach
Wednesday night when we arrived we had to go from a plane, to a bus, to a train. We did it all and saw it all!
Not a great pic, but the Cubbuster did it again. Padres 1- Astros- 0
Jaj is no fair-weather fan. She doesn't give up on the Padres!
Matthew's first time to San Diego proved to be one of the best. Not only did he walk on and play Torrey Pines (a perfect dream for him shooting 77 with my dad's clubs), but he also loved the huge Pacific waves!
One of my all-time favorite spots- hiking the hills of Torrey Pines
Spent an afternoon in the gorgeous La Jolla Beach. The pictures really don't do it justice.
I had a similar pic in Paris, where I was immediately told to get down by an officer. The people of Cali are a little more relaxed about tree climbing.
Matthew went out to wait patiently for the perfect wave with the many surfers. He didn't really enjoy all the waiting around, and he's a golfer- go-figure.
Del Mar beach was packed and the weather was perfect!
An amazing woman: my Great-grandmother is 97 and still looking amazing. It was a true blessing that she could finally meet my hubby after 8 years.
We had such a great time seeing family and relaxing. Love my Cali Jaj!

Hard waves

Heartache and hard times seem to come like heat: in waves. Right now, I feel I have escaped the wave. I feel a sense of respite and relief. My world doesn't seem to be hanging in the balance of the next uncertainty. However, I feel the wave around me in the lives of others. It feels as if I'm sitting in the middle of my sweet autumn breeze while I'm hearing story after story of diagnosis, loss, and turmoil. Once upon a time, I would anxiously pray and wonder when my time of turmoil would next hit, but I've had my share of storms since then. Now I can praise God in good times, knowing the hard will come again. Instead of living in fear, I feel assurance that I will again experience respite and joy, and one day all my sorrows will cease when I leave this body. There's no sense in trying to avoid waves; if you have someone bigger, who created the oceans, then you can live at a level of ease no matter your circumstances. When I hear of these hurts, my heart hurts too, b...

Confessions

I have had so many people thank me for my honesty on this blog lately. I haven't really thought about my level of truthfulness until those remarks of gratitude were given. I think I naturally wear my heart on my sleeve, and thanks to my upbringing, I often hear the term TMI, which just means I'm obviously not scared to express myself. However, I also believe that when you are going through something difficult, it's much easier to be raw and real in front of others, even complete strangers. Often times, it is these "real" moments that bridge the gap between hearts and allow us to live truth. I must confess, this marathon is really all over the place. It's like I hit mile 7, and I can't believe I'm only at mile 7! This past weekend, I felt covered in prayer, peace, and love. Matthew and I enjoyed a much needed date night, our little Levi enjoyed a quiet and restful weekend, and our big boy had a blast at our neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt.  I really ju...

Influenced

influence....... influenced. The latter word signifies a condition where someone else has an effect on your life. Taking off one little letter seems to insight a condition where you are the one acting upon the lives of others. I wish I could claim that I am rarely influenced by the opinions of others, but sadly that is not the case. If it does not go against my beliefs, principles, or well-being, I am one of those people that can easily jump on a bandwagon if presented with the material in an intelligent and legitimate manner. For that reason, I stay away from most things that can have a potential momentary or negative influence on my life. Unfortunately when it comes to little Levi, there are many different people taking care of him, and there are many different opinions regarding his current and future condition. For some reason, since the day Levi was born though, I have not searched the internet for a single thing regarding his care or condition. I believe God has protected me fro...
