Yesterday was a very special day; we got to have Blue Bell ice cream! I
forgot how good it tastes, way so much more better than the stuff we
get here or even at Banana Boat. (though both of those are a good
alternative if nothing better presents itself). This was totally a
surprise and could only have been an act of God. Tonya brought it
special delivery with her all the way from Texas when she flew in, I
would never have expected it! I am continually astounded by the way
that God brings about little things that mean so much, I love Him so
much! So thank you to God and thank you to Tonya for being a willing
instrument.

Boy, when Callie leaves, heads roll!

Actually, this is the result of a weekend fishing trip headed up by
Brooke. Callie, Liz, Kathleen and I all went out and since Brooke said
no one believes that she catches anything I have decided to document it.

We started out early in the morning, driving to the lake.

We rented a rowboat and found the “perfect” spot. (Brooke seems a little tired of rowing)
   
Liz started out the day with the first catch, and Kathleen followed not much later.

Callie has one!
  
Amy finally caught one – and boy is it cute!  A cool picture of the fisher-women.
  
Callie cleans her first fish     
    Some people are a little more comfortable with the
process.
So there you have it, we caught 25 fish with 14 big enough to eat.
Three of us ate those 14 fish – they were wonderful. Thank you to
Brooke for planning all of this.

Now I finally have time to update about our trip to the Coppersmiths.
Note the time, I think internet cut off has significantly reduced my
posts. The Coppersmiths are doing great, it was just like old times
getting to sit around the house and talk, watching the antics of Sophie
and Lauren. They’ve had a rough time of it but are finally settled and
Seth has a good job. God tested them and they have come out the better
for it. I love them and am so grateful that God brought them through
Verity. Enjoy the pictures!
The cutest little house, they live on the right.

Something’s not right with this picture 🙂         Sailing at the lake on Saturday.

This is a tribute to John.
He went above and beyond the call of duty when many other tasks were
pressing for his time. I lost about two and a half pages of my
portfolio on Tuesday and John spent hours trying to retrieve this
unsaved document. Unfortunately I managed to screw up beyond help even
though he downloaded special software and searched all around my hard
drive. Then, after all that work, he proceeded to improve my computer
with various setting changes, downloads and even gave me a tutorial on
how to use my new stuff. So this is a hearty thanks to John for his
generosity. Thanks to a modern day knight for helping with a modern day
distress.
