releasing…

Today was a day of opening our hands…and letting go.

Dave worked his last day at the Army Hospital.  What a mix of emotions…joy and sadness…excitement and freaking out!! We’ve loved all that God has done in and through us in our time in the Army…what a surprising and fulfilling 11 years it has been…we thank Him for it all.

The kids and I surprised Dave at lunch with some treats and a big cake…my favorite touch was the big footprint that Evie put in the cake!! It just gave it more love :)!  The halls were filled with balloons and confetti…it was beautiful!  We made Daddy a very special dinner and our sweet Ella decorated the table in her beautiful way!

We step forward into a new season…with anticipation…

Father, we give you all.  Take our lives.  Make us know you–trust you–thank you…and love you more.
