We had our final weekend in Wilmington with Clay's family last weekend. They are moving to Trieste, Italy to plant a church. They are going through a ministry called Italian ministries and are being supported through friends, family and also their church in Wilmington. If you would like to read about their awesome journey, how God is working in their lives, or how you can get involved visit their website: http://www.foureveretts.org/ .There is one couple already living in Trieste who they will be serving along side of. We tried to fit in as many fun things into one weekend as we could. We played on the beach as a family on Saturday. We had lunch in the condo and the girls had the best time playing together. Claire and Ava surprised Ellie and Baylor with tie dye shirts that they made for them and themselves!! We also surprised mom and dad with a new framed picture of the girls that we took without them knowing about and a photo calendar that we made them on Shutterfly. She and dad were so surprised!!! You know it is a good surprise when you make someone cry happy tears! That afternoon mom, Court and I went to our favorite store Primrose Cottage and for dinner we all went to Michael's Seafood, another of our favorite places at CB! It was such a special family day at the beach! On Sunday Clay and Court were commissioned at their church. It was a great service and time of lifting their family up in prayer before they travel to Italy. We had family and friends come to Wilmington for the service to support them. We all went out to a wonderful Italian dinner followed by homemade ice cream!!! We can't wait to see all that the Lord is going to do through Clay, Court and the girls! We will miss them so much, but are excited to have Skype set up on our computer and our cell phones!!!
