Memorial Day Weekend

Our long weekend started with watching Ellie perform in a

"Pop Festival" on Friday night. She did such a fabulous job!

We are so very proud of her progress.

After the recital (in which her good friend

Kei also performed), we were treated to a concert by

Peter, the "Prince of Piano." It was a fun family event.

Saturday found our family at yet another event. This time a

high school graduation and party. The service was

pretty long, but I was SO PROUD of how well the children

did. The young man who graduated

went to Africa with the pastor last summer. . . We had a lovely time.

Sunday, besides enjoying being with our church family and hearing

God's Word preached, we hung out at the William's house

for our monthly intern lunch/fellowship. It was a BEAUTIFUL day,

and the kids got to swim for the second time this summer season.

Yesterday (Memorial Day), Ellie and I got to do a little shopping

for summer clothes and the boys did yard work. We all headed

to a birthday party in the afternoon and enjoyed hanging with

some other families. God is SO good.

I hope you all had a blessed weekend as well. . .
