 I realise that I haven't posted on here for two weeks, I have, however, been taking a look at your blogs....just havent had the time to post. We went to Wales last weekend to spend a few days with my sister and her husband. I have posted before about my sister finding us here We had a lovely weekend and the first four photos below were taken in Wales.
On Wednesday evening this week some of our Women's Group went for an evening walk (4 miles). It was a lovely evening.
I am very excited at the moment, my daughter and her family are arriving in the UK from South Africa on 8th June, I have tried to stay calm until they had the boys visas in their hands which they have today! . We have had a couple of times in the past when these things have been held up in SA and taken ages or not come through at all.We havent seen the boys for nearly a year. My other daughter and her family will also be coming to stay and so we are hoping that we will have one day when the whole family are together which hasnt happened since our sons wedding in  Sept 2008!

Oh how exciting getting everyone together - I bet you don't know what to 'sort out' first!!

Lovely photos too!

How sweet to have your family all together in one place again! I just came from your daughter's blog and saw her cry for help and prayer...how are they??? Praying right now on this end of the computer...trusting that ALL that they need will be provided. And that the sustaining Grace of God will fall over each fear and concern. Enjoy the readying for your family!

Ha yes there is a fair bit of 'sorting to be done'
Thanks for asking about my daughter...they have had a very tough time financially, things aren't much better but each day God provides for them. We will see what He holds for the future but for now a well deserved trip to the UK is going to help lots and we are all very thankful for Gods provision for flights etc. They have to leave SA every 6 months for visa purposes.

You must be excited beyond belief to have everyone together again.

Your visit looks like it was wonderful. The pictures are gorgeous.

I can't imagine how exciting it was for you to have your family together again. I enjoyed all the pictures and could feel the joy in your mother's heart. Beautiful pictures!
