Saturday May 31st




We had a very unexpected but great thing happen this week. We had 2 of our grandchildren come stay with us for a couple days!!!! Im very tired but they are sooooo cute and Im so glad they came. I am posting a picture of the oldest Cameron. This is an older picture( christmas ) since I was having so much fun with them and was so busy I didnt take many pictures of them this week. This is Cameron feeding the horses.


Monday our son Hunter leaves for Thailand. Getting him ready to leave has kept us busy too. On top of that we have had lots of ministry stuff going on. Steve worked the bike rally at Sandy Hook Ms. all last weekend and then today is an outreach at the prison in Columbia Ms. Im not there because I have to go with Hunter today to get some last minute things for his trip.


We are praising God for working out the visa thing! AIM found out a week ago they needed visa's as well as passports. The Thai embassy was very helpful and pushed those through quickly for us. ( they already had thier passports just not their visa's )


Ya'll keep him in your prayers.


I have found that doing 2 Bible Studies at the same time and keeping up with everything else is difficult. I found myself behind in my lessons this week but I caught up this morning. Hopefully things will quiet down.


I do have another prayer request...Steve took our new toy hauler/camper to this bike rally. he plugged it into their outlet and now we have found it blew up our circuit and we have lots of electrical damage that will not be covered by the warrenty...it is an insurance issue we have been told. the problem is that we have been trying to establish a relationship as christians with the owner/promoter of the rally who is not saved. Please pray for us for guidance on how to handle this and that God would be glorified through it.


Thank you


p.s. the goofball in front of the Thai flag is Hunter

May 13th


I cant believe its been a month since I posted anything! Actually I did write out this really long blog right after I got back from visiting my daughter Rachel in Washington D.C. but when I clicked "publish" my satellite went out. We are on Hughes net out here in the sticks.

I had a great time in D.C. I got to do a few things I had never done before like ride in a taxi and the take the metro. The cherry tree's were in bloom which was awesome! Rachel has become a great cook. She loves Racheal Ray. She and her husband Justin were great hosts and I had a wonderful time. Even flying by myself wasnt so bad.

A few days after I was home I went to Dallas to help take care of my Mom who had just had back surgery. She has a hard time taking pain meds, they kindof make her , well....she didnt get much sleep so neither did we. She is doing better though now. It will take her about a year they say to fully recover though.

We started our new Bible Study today in Columbia! We are doing Beth Moores Stepping Up. We will meet every other week through the summer on Tuesdays during lunch. This doesnt give us much time to talk though so I am opening up this blog to the ladies to "discuss" , ask questions and just talk. I dont know about ya'll, but I just love Bible study days. Its like a refuge from lifes storms. How about you?

Feel free to comment.
