Wyoming.

A week ago, Carter and David traveled the blue skies to Buffalo, Wyoming.  Our church partnered with a church there for a week doing missions.  During the mornings, our people did some light construction around the church facility, and in the evenings we helped to host backyard Bible clubs in several of the neighborhoods.  What an incredible opportunity for my boys!  So thankful they were able to do this together.  They flew out of Little Rock on Friday afternoon, and landed first in Denver, Colorado.  From Denver, they flew on a very small plane to Sheridan, Wyoming.  
David and Carter spent the night in Sheridan before meeting up with the rest of our group on Saturday afternoon.  
Here are some more members from our church arriving in Sheridan from Atlanta.  
David loved the scenery and the weather in Wyoming.  It was much different than the hot and humid summer we have been having here.  
More than the scenery though, he loved the wildlife.  You can view more pictures of their trip here, including lots of pictures of wild animals.  
I love this picture of my two boys, so handsome!
Here is Carter going door to door passing out fliers for the backyard Bible club.  What a great experience for him!  I think at this house Tom and Jerry (his new favorite) was playing on the TV, and he did not want to leave, ha!
Playing at the park!

Playing with Audrey and Amelia, his two new friends.  
Carter and David.  During this photo opp, David got tree sap all over his hair, and it took him forever to get it all out!
Carter and Miss Grace, a sweet lady from our church.  He is quite smitten with her. 
So, while I was laying in the pool in 100 degree heat in Arkansas, David and Carter were playing in the SNOW!  Crazy!
More animals.  I think these are antelope or maybe gazelles.  
Carter got to cross over the border into Montana, adding to the number of states he has visited.

Carter, I hope this is a trip that you will never forget.  Your daddy loved having you as his traveling buddy.  He told me most every night when we talked how very proud of you he was during this trip.  He was proud of your good attitude, and he was impressed with your servant heart.  We pray, Carter, that one day God will capture your heart, so that he may use you to reach others for Him.  Mommy sure did miss you and Daddy while you were gone, but I'm so thankful that the two of you had this amazing opportunity together.  I love you both!
