A busy week

This past week has been quite an eventful one. One that had some great things and some not so great things happen. Monday Brannon, Joseph, and I, all got some kind of stomach bug. Joseph and spent some time in the hospital due to dehydration, but after a few days of laying around, we all felt much better. Carston thankfully did not get sick.

Wednesday night was GREAT!! It was around 9:30 and my sister called me. I thought it was a bit odd because she usually does not call that late. She said that there was supposed to be a package delivered and that I should go check the door. When I opened it, there she was. She had been planning the visit for a month. This past weekend Brannon was taking the youth group to a conference in Denver called Dare 2 Share. He would gone Friday night and Saturday so Tami had decided to come out and keep me company. That was a great surprise. We had a really nice time just hanging out at home and taking the boys out.

The Dare 2 Share conference was a blast according to Brannon and the kids who went. We had a total of 16 kids go and along with four adults. All of them had a wonderful experience and some even were able to lead a few people to Christ.

We are counting down the time to Christmas. We are driving out to Chicago to spend the holiday's with my family. Brannon's parents will be coming out for a few days as well so, we are really excited and looking forward to that time. We just need to pray for good weather for the drive and for good health.
