PROVERBS 3:5-6

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths STRAIGHT.

Almost the last.....

Ok I guess I should go a head and wrap this vacation up! Wednesday was a whole day at sea. The kids all went to there clubs so that left Tyren and I to explore the ship and just hang out. We actually pulled into the port Wednesday night at about 10:30. We didn't get to disembark till the next morning. We got up and headed to breakfast and then to my beloved car!

We decided, since we were there, and it was a Thursday and Ty was off till Monday, to go to the Kennedy Space Center! It was very interesting and of course Nathan loved it, Amelia thought it was boring and well Marshall was just a typical teenager! Here are some pictures from there:





Amelia and Nathan both got a kick out of these pictures:




























and a few more:
















We spent a few hours there and then we headed north on the interstate till it was time to head west!

Tomorrow I will try to put up some more pictures from the trip.

Castaway Cay!! Heaven on Earth.....

Castaway Cay was so beautiful...I could live there! Except for on teeny weeny problem......I. HATE. SAND. IN. MY Crevices!!!
Once off the ship we took a picture, the words in purple say this was our room those are our two balconies.
The kids just loved this! A replica of the Flying Dutchman!!!






Donald was waiting for everyone to get off the ship so we stopped and took some pictures with him.







The water was soooooooooo Beautiful. These pictures don't do it Justice!

I was a pretty day and the sun shined all day long, BUT, the water was so cold that it stung when you got in it! I was able to ease my way in to it and once I got in it wasn't so bad. I just wasn't expecting ice water.




The kids didn't seem to mind one bit.










They both loved playing on the beach in the sand.

They had a teen beach, and of course that is where Marshall was and they also had a adult only beach area, but we had so much fun spending time with the kids we didn't put them in the kids club. The kids started to get tired of the sand and wanted to go back on the ship to go to the pool and Ty and I figured that wouldn't be a bad idea since almost every body was on the beach!
The kids love the slide, it took Amelia a little while to warm up to it but she eventually did it.

This is my new Fuji underwater camera, I love it it takes some really good pictures under water and it takes great video it took me a little while to figure out how to video but I eventually got the hang of it.












Tuesday night was our pirate night on the ship. Our dinner was all pirate themed and then later that night they had a big pirate party on the top deck of the ship, with a fire work display and all.








Our waiter made Nathan a pirate hat....

The kids loved him he was so funny!




We didn't get to bed before mid night a single night we were on the ship! Wednesday was just a full day out at sea.

Cincinnati......

I will keep telling myself things happen for a reason, things happen for a reason, God is in control. THINGS HAPPEN FOR A REASON!

OK with that said....we are going to transplant in Cincinnati, Oh. The next month is going to be a complete whirl wind! We have never been there before so we don't know what to expect.
This is the email I got earlier today:
Kelly, as it appears that I cannot change the decision about the insurance coverage here, I need to get you to connect with Dr. Stella Davies at Cincinnati Children's to first verify insurance coverage there (preliminary review looked promising). If you indicate that it is OK, I will send her a medical summary on Amelia and my proposed treatment plan...I will also ask her office to connect with you to get things going. You will need to sign a form that transfers the donor search. They will get the form to you. They will keep me informed I am sure. Again, I'm sorry this has happened. Just know that I tried. John

At least he is sending over his proposed treatment plan...

Some have asked if I am OK with that, well to be honest it doesn't matter where we go because what ever is going to happen is going to happen weather we are in Minneapolis or Cincinnati! It is in Gods hands and His will, will be done! That is what I have to trust in.
