My grandfather just got a new helicopter. Sunday was it's big "debut" with the family there. The pilot, who is a wonderful, godly man, gave us some instructions and prayed a blessing over the helicopter and that it would be used safely and for God-honoring purposes. My extended family has not always done things like that together and seeing my grandfather become the spiritual leader of our family is something that was only in my wildest dreams at one time. God truly gave us so much more than we were even praying for all those years. If you have loved ones you have prayed for year in and year out, NEVER give up! You have no idea what could happen.
Little John thought the ride was great! He was so excited about everything. For me, the ride was wonderful. Looking down and seeing my childhood home full of happy memories was better. Having a precious moment with my grandparents and family was the best.

Kyle, Brittany, Kyndall, John, LJ & I got the first ride


It's a beauty

The kids checking out their new ride. LJ was excited to see a remote control, DVD player and headphones. Believe me, he never thought about them once we got in the air.

Da gathered us as a family to share his special moment

We could talk over the headsets to each other and the pilot

Home, sweet, childhood home

Thanks for the encouragement to KEEP PRAYING for my unbelieving family members. What a blessing to see your grandfather commit his life to Christ and then to see the fruit in his life---God is GOOD.
