Dancing



In Savannah, the boys have a dance-off while the kids at the county school event load up to leave!
Our visit to Savannah, GA started at the Red Gate Farms RV camp. We arrived around 9:00 am and to our surprise....Stedman Graham (Oprah’s longtime boyfriend) was speaking. He has an organization which includes him speaking to schools, organizations, foundations, etc., helping guide youth and achieve their potential. There were about 300 high school students with parents there at the Red Gate Park.  We didn’t even have a reservation for a RV lot as we had been winging it on our way up from Tampa (rookies). I felt so blessed and grateful to God He led us there! It was a pretty amazing experience. While Brian set up the rv, the boys and I went over to the event area (sat about 100 yards away) to listen to Stedman and other speakers.  Their words spoke right to me.  The expressed how important it was for each student to have an identity, their own identity.  We as parents or adult figures can do so much more to inspire the youth today to realize what they’re capable of and to start setting goals they can achieve now.
Allowing Gavin and Greyson to express themselves, while growing their faith on this journey, and always, is most important.  Our Creator made us in His image, and gave us each special, unique gifts and when we allow him to do His work through us, we love, lead, forgive, heal and are not only saved but save others.
