Day 185 - Sunday, July 4

What a great day!!  We had so much fun!

We invited 5 families over after church for a BBQ and swimming.  Great food, great friends...what could be better?  How about God showing up in a big way?  While we were in the pool playing volley ball, one of the women looked down and realized her engagement ring had come off.  We quickly turned off the pump in the pool and everyone started looking.  But we could not find the ring in the pool, which really worried me.  If it had been flung off while playing, it could be anywhere in the bushes and shrubs and the likelihood of us finding it was pretty small.  After looking for quite a while, I stopped everyone and said let's pray.  So, I said a quick prayer asking God to help us find this ring (the husband was looking a bit nauseous!).  It wasn't 2 minutes when my daughter and her friend yelled "we found it!".  It had been flung off her finger clear over to the foundation of the house...a good 10+ feet away.  We never would have looked there, but the girls were going in the house and it caught their eye......yea God!!!
