We have finally gotten to the really hot days of summer…mid 90’s for the next week or so. This will help make fall all the more sweet!
We enjoyed having Tanya, Daniel, and children for about 24 hours this weekend. Jerod and Meredith went to camp yesterday while Blake and Grayson, along with Sugar the dog, spent the afternoon with us. They are all boy but were no problems. I’m sure if given more opportunity they could, and would, think of most anything to do or get in to. We think they’re lots of fun and glad they are all boy. That will help them to become strong and confident men.
We have our small group tonight and we’re looking forward to seeing everyone. It’s been several weeks since we’ve been with them because of vacations, etc. They are all really sweet people and have such a hunger for knowing what God’s word is all about.
Isaac and Jenny will be here Wednesday afternoon. That, too, ought to prove to be fun. Three small kids will somehow keep us all busy around here. I’m also going to try and have my “date” with Ryan on Wednesday.  It seems so many things keep cropping in and summer is almost over. I think we’ll go see the new Harry Potter movie…to hot for the zoo trip. That will be a first, and probably a last, for me. That’s not my cup of tea, but I’ll go just to be with him and do something he’ll enjoy.
Phyllis is in town but we missed her when we went over to see Karen’s new baby yesterday evening…which is absolutely adorable! She really has pretty babies! He’s named Charles Henry Gunn…sounds like he ought to be some sort of English prince! I will try and catch up with her tomorrow. Otherwise, I won’t get to see her.Â
Andrew Verble had the remaining half of his skull put back in today and he did very well with the surgery according to his dad. He’s truly a miracle and we continue to pray for complete recovery. He has a lot to offer just by surviving all of this. Bet he’ll wear his seat belt from now on!
Got to run. I’ll be back in touch before many more days.
Blessings……..
