Mobile, Alabama

We arrived in Mobile AL on Saturday. It was a last minute decision we made (like everything we do)since we were driving in that direction. Owen had met a friend online through his bible studies on youtube from the Mobile area. So we called them up and asked them if they would mind if we stopped and visited. THANK YOU Nathan and Suni Lippincott for taking us in:-) It is kind of funny that Nathan has talked to Owen over the phone and AIM but we have never met him or his wife before so it was a great time hanging out and getting to know one another . They also asked if Owen would speak at their Sunday night service. Nathan's dad has a church called Grace Bible Church in Mobile. So of course Owen said he would love to .. You would have thought someone gave Owen a million dollars... hahaha..... It has been a long time since Owen has preached from a pulpit and he has been chomping at the bit to start teaching again! We were able to meet alot of great people at the church. It was so nice to be able to talk and meet other Grace believers.

This is the first view of the gulf we saw on Saturday.. We had just driven through the whole state of Alabama in pouring rain and it wasn't any better when we arrived in Mobile.

Sunday morning before church we took the kids to Mc Donald's to have their favorite pancakes:)



Notice Torin just about to shove his whole hand in his mouth(probably had left over syrup on it , have to make sure he gets every drop)... Boy, do my kids love to eat. They literally will eat you out of house and home...And I have the grocery bills to prove it:-)

This is Owen introducing himself and giving a short testimony of his life on Sunday morning.


It was such a beautiful day outside the kids were able to play outside on the church playground.
This is Kaden and his new friend Titus. Titus is Nathan's adopted brother from Haiti. Kaden had a lot of fun playing with Titus at church.

This is Owen and Nathan chit chatting outside with the kids....
